Do you remember him few months back having spent a whole video justifying why he signed the NDA and shouldn't change his process on reviewing?
Heh ironic. Now they cannot even report about the issues they have.

sorry if posted elsewhere but thought people need to know
It is, at least the FX series worked.Can't be worse than the FX series
I am having massive problems with Digital River trying to return my card for a refund. Thankfully an Nvidia representative, pidge2k, on reddit has been helping me. All I need is the return label so I can send it back to them and he said that they tried to call me yesterday (no call was received by me) and had sent me an email with an update. So I check my emails and they sent me a generic email saying "you'll get another email once your products have shipped" with a VAT invoice attached for the 2080 Ti with yesterday's date and no update or return label.
Does anyone understand this, have they got confused forgotten that I want a refund and instead are doing an advanced RMA and are sending me a new card? If so I think I will boil over with rage.
Probably because they didn't want people to realise how **** the cooler is before they parted with their money.
Nvidia should probably spend less money on keeping up appearances and screws, and maybe spend it on more thorough research and testing.
I've got it fairly heavily overclocked and it is running at 60C, so hopefully notOr it will be like the Asus Vega cards where they installed a heatsink which doesn't even fit properly...
...For an extra £100 or so
Yea but the problem was it didn't cover the VRMs properly. Temperatures for the GPU itself looked ok, but VRMs were quietly overheating :/
I spoke to a woman at the Digital River call centre, they don't know why I was sent an invoice email. She made sure the note said that I wanted a refund. She wants me to wait 24-48 hours for the email with the return label again which she promised would come. I thought you'd be interested to know she blamed a very high return rate for the new 'Nvidia product' for the delays which she said had been extended to 5-7 days. She wasn't very happy when I asked if they have a complaints procedure although I said she was good because she gave me more information more quickly than the others.

Glad you still got your sense of humour mate!I dropped all that cash on a broken one and I think that's funny!
Indeed, the FTW3 metal I seen in jayz vid, has at least 3x the height of what is on the FE card. The fact nvidia changed to a fan setup from the blower is a lot misleading as whats underneath those fans is still very poor.

It's a problem with the position of the GDDR6 modules. Too close to the VRM's so they get overly hot when under stress with limited to poor cooling from the stock cooler. The problem is mitigated slightly but the 3rd party vendors with their coolers. A water block should be the best cooling solution if the GDDR6 and VRM's are cooled properly by it. However likely that the base board design is defective and a large part of the failures.
1080ti
LOL,
I just took the block off my 1080ti and am now using it in my second PC (HTCP for VR standing). My new build is part of my VR Sim set up, so really wanted the fastest cards available.
