Requires a power adaptor making cable routing a chore
Not exactly "affordable"
Performance jump vs previous generation smaller than on other GeForce 40 cards

Limited game compatibility for DLSS 3 and DLSS F
Lackluster performance in older games
Smaller performance jump than the previous xx70-class card
