Nothing to do with early run chip samples? A error in nvidia boost in the drivers? How about human error on the pc? Look I’m not saying this isn’t a issue but come on a driver problem a problem in the boost algorithm nvidia? These don’t seem more reasonable issues then just on something that most people don’t understand and it becoming the truth?

Have you watched the video bro? Looking at the different types of capacitors on the FE and the Zotac and some others. I'm glad I put my money with Asus Tuf who haven't gone with the cheaper ones that fully appear to be causing the issues.
Could be right, could be wrong.
Everyone can make a decision what they buy.
Just trying to help
yes I’ve watched the video exp the jay2cent one he got so many things wrong from a post from another YouTuber and ran with what he thought was the truth. Look I’m not saying it isn’t the problem but there are so many more things it could be.
they say that the card is crashing and he even said it’s 15mhz difference could make it the issue but have u ever tried to overclock a card the issues u get the pixelation and hard lockup and crashes. There crashing to the desktop without the normal issues. But the story is now rolling and people are rolling with it good for asus though since everyone will now buy a ASU’s card

I don't understand why people are panicking.
Any problems with the card, call the support team and request RMA.
They will send you a new card.

Great work on adding the video, I couldn't work out how to do that.
Hopefully everyone will be fine and like he says at the end a firmware will fix but reduce the power a bit. If it's something else that's an easy fix then whoop.
EVGA seem to have reacted to this theory
Happily, one of the few reviews seems to show the MLCC's:
We'll see, though, hey?

THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT BROTHERS....
GOOD ON EVGA I SAY
THANKS FOR THE POST.
Asus is one of my preferred brands.
They may rip you off a bit with their prices but you do get good quality.
I like their Rampage Extreme boards because they can take a lot of very heavy use but they are expensive.
Used to work in an electronics factory. Wouldn't be surprised if all shipments were cancelled at the last minute and all produced cards are being manually resoldered with the new caps, hence the chaos with shipments and stock. Happened quite a bit on new stuff going out when I was there.
I ordered with a competitor and their website said in stock and I would get it next day at point or ordering. Something has definitely happened behind the scenes.

In my honest opinion some of us just should cancel the orders.

Looks like MSI Also changed to using 2 MLC and 4 SP-Cap.
FYI these are not POSCAP no 3080 or 3090 uses them. POSCAP is a specific Panasonic line. These are SP-Cap go check out Bilzoid Actually Overclocking YouTube channel. He talks about these and corrects information.
Either way latest images I'm seeing of MSI cards is they have gone from 1 to 2 MLC now.
See bilzoids video on this

I think the 226 people before me in the projected queue need to cancel their Gigabyte Gaming orders. Everyone says it is the bad configuration, so I think those 226 people should show Gigabyte that it isn't acceptable and just cancel.

Honestly the Gigabyte Gaming tops out at 1800mhz so it will not have a problem if you don't overclock. I do not overclock so I honestly couldn't care less. As stated above the roughly 226 people in the queue before me ought to show Gigabyte by canceling their orders.
Hey folks,
sorry if this has been asked a million times, it’s my first post. I ordered a Strix non OC at 14:27 on ‘release’ day. I’ve not really seen any official update on the card at all. I need to buy a new system for when the card arrives so was wondering whether it’s worth doing that now or waiting a little? I don’t particular want to buy all new and have it sat here couple of months before my GPU turns up.
thanks in advance
