30xx Series Founders Edition

Ah I definitely don't want that. So I guess I need to package the GPU in a generic box then?

Just out of interest why the RMA?

Please also let us know the turn around time.
Hope you don't have to wait long.

Yeh, just send the card, nothing else, obviously well packaged.

To anyone who has RMA'd an FE card with Nvidia:

They make a point of mentioning not to include any accessories when you send the card back to them. Does that mean if I package my card in my original box, I'm going to get my replacement in a random, generic box?

Cheers

I thought this too. So I sent my card in a generic box as I didn't want to loose the nice box in-case of resale later.

In my case the replacement came brand-new-in-retail-box. So I now have 2 retail boxes

Thanks for the words dudes. Will definitely let you know how I get on.

Managed to get Nvidia to honour an RMA on my 3080 because the front fan creates a hissing noise (which really annoys me because I have a near-silent build).

We'll see what happens. Kinda scary that it's getting sent to Nvidia Singapore.

My phone won't stop buzzing, loads of European drops tonight.

Anybody got a good guide on undervolting? I have a 3070Ti and I am interesting in giving it a go.

I'm sure they'll be a UK drop soon. The EU ones tend to happen first from memory.

Does the twitter for Partalert work as well as Telegram? ive never heard of telegram until now (except the old sort of telegram).

Not sure myself but given the cards sell out in minutes I'd say Telegram is the most likely the quickest for notification.

They don't share that information , you can only try to figure or guess looking at past times and days dropped

Applied an undervolt to my 3070Ti this morning.

1950MHz @ 925mV with +500 on the mem.

Only tested it on Timespy, Heaven and a couple of hours on Dying Light - Temps have come down about 8c, wattage down about 80w with no real performance hit that I can tell of.

Yeh, I tested mine (3080 Ti) in Cyberpunk2077 at 3440x1440 with all the bells and whistles on, the difference in FPS between an undervolt and an overclock was around 3-5 in a heavily loaded scene, but around 5C hotter with the OC, totally not worth it.

With how electricity prices are going up, I'm seriously thinking of selling my system. Bloody hell
