I would also caution against using this driver. It caused my 3080 to get stuck on low core frequency (210MHz) so I thought I had card issue.

I've set my curve at 850mV max @ 1850MHz and it is rock stable. This is on a 3080 FE and it makes a huge difference; 220W at max load vs 300W. All for just 5-10% reduction in performance, if that...

Don't know how many of us there are but I've recently kept a closer eye on drops. No rush but I look forward to when this is not a game of fastest fingers first.

I had a 2060 Super Windforce and I can tell you that the easiest potential fix is to get a GPU metal support which will help to reduce the sag. I am guessing your card has only got a plastic backplate? Anyway, the shroud design is ass and prone to vibration at certain fan speeds, not necessary...

I was taking a photo when I got a telegram alert for a 3000 series FE. Literally the only time I've seen an alert in the same minute so it was just sheer luck.

Exactly, I lucked out with landing a 3080 last week and was so tempted to get an instant up to £1k profit if I scalped it but I didn't want to be one of those guys. Basically this is tragedy of the commons all over.

I'm very lucky to have bought a 3080 FE thanks to Telegram alerts (another big up to FE PartAlert). These "new" cards have ridiculous prices that would have been laughed at so hard if we weren't in a semiconductor shortage.

Anyone else finding it tough to ignore the fact that we can sell our 3080s for almost 3 times what we paid for it? I am loving the performance so I won't do it but the temptation...

As someone that recently got a 3xxx series in a very lucky alert via telegram, I really hope so. There are still thousands of gamers out there without a good card and have been waiting to upgrade for months now.

FYI, I went from a 2060 super to a 3080 FE this weekend and all I did was update the Nvidia drivers after boot up.

It's not even worth a remaster, 2 and 3 still look respectable today.

Or did you just cool down the sensor really well? :p

My friends and I bought deathwing for coop but it was sadly a waste of our time and money. The enhanced edition was still quite lacking in punch.

I have the opposite, I thought it was PSU but after replacing it with an NZXT 750W I found the same noise was occurring and it was as coil whine! Grrrr

I second your recommendation, I undervolted my newly received card to ~0.875V so far and it is making a huge difference. Ironically, whilst my 650W PSU (Corsair CX650M) can handle the load (system draw is <400W thanks for Ryzen 5600x and my undervolt), the PSU's fan itself is clicking away...

Even optimistically it'll be Q4 for consumer cards from what the rumour mill says.

It's not like we'd risk losing these fairly old accounts to fleece a peer. Oh well, too many scammers.

Yeah, I've been lurking for over 8 years so I've not hit the magical 1000 post. Oh well, thems the rules.

Assuming my card arrives on Friday, I'll have a 2060 super going but I don't want to sell it on those auction sites. What's next best way to sell it to a fellow gamer? This is all theoretical at moment!

Yup, my main credit card provider rejected payment twice even though they did the mobile text code check. I was about to explode
