2080ti cards failing ?

Simon Belmont · 30 Oct 2018 at 18:57

Everyone laughed when people were buying the RTX 2080

Ouch. All I can add.

Soret of a similar situation with the vega launch, i remember quite a few of those cards failing in the first few days, though i think this seems more widespread.

I had to return two faulty Vega's, Thankfully they both came from here so returning them was hassle free, One was an AIO model when they first released and the other was a Red Devil a couple of months back.

A search throws up quite a few results already. This is going to be a bad one considering how little time they have been out.

Jensen has said they've noticed nothing unusual about the amount of returns...so that's OK then.

He's a totally trustworthy chap too, never exaggerates, lies or says anything that we'd ever have reason to question or doubt... :rolleyes:

Well RTX 2080 and 2070 F. E models are also being added to the list.

I think we need to remind ourselves

If that isn't worth £1300, I don't know what is.

Presumably the failing ones.

I remember that, was the Liquids, im surprised they never got recalled at the time, as there was that many failing.

Yup and anyone that commented on it had certain people raging like the thread was being trolled when in reality it was a trend that was being noticed.

So its reckoned to be gddr6 issues, freaky looking strobing artifacts in the vid.

Bloody fantastic...

Just got a 2080 Ti FE and watercolor it yesterday / installed the EK block etc. Will be the weekend before I can put it into my loop and test it.

Am feeling sick.

Just bung it in as is and test it with the stock cooler first.

Never seen artifacts like those before.

Must be ray-traced, gotta use those new cores for something at least.

Yeah they are a bit different looking to say the least. You'd almost think they were meant to be there on the menu screen with how they appear.
