2080ti cards failing ?

The second card that HardOCP got with the Samsung memory wasn't overclocked, he never used anything only stock settings. Other people with failures have also said they didn't overclock and their card still failed.

Is your card an AIB card? The problem seems to mainly affect FE cards.

It's an FE card.

When i say overclocking, what's the rest of his system, CPU, memory, PCI bus, how's the voltages set. All my settings are auto.

It's nothing to do with Overclocking. And it's nothing to do with the rest of his system, The cards are the problem and it's already been admitted by Nvidia.

What is Nvidia's solution to the failure?

So far all they've stated is a few "test boards" somehow got into retail....how many a few is exactly is unknown. Though to be blunt it sounds like a BS reason. Kyle's card with the newer ram failed in exactly the same way, its obviously a newer board in comparison to all the ones dying at the drop of a hat, so that shoots the "test board" excuse down in flames. Right now the current murmuring is it could be an actual problem in the gpu itself that may or may not make it self known in the short or long term.

Bumpgate v2 lol

TBH Nvidia could probably do with losing a few partners in this down turn.

It's not a failure, it's a feature. Gamers everywhere expecting hyper-real ray tracing can go outside and experience real-real ray tracing everywhere

I like the thinking. Nvidia want you to spend less time gaming and more time IRL. This is a nice feature and explains the horrendous pricing somewhat.
 
I am in the process of RMAing my card. Getting hard locks / screen flashing on and off / artefacting etc.

Such a shame, the ROG Strix 2080 Ti is the best card I've ever owned design-wise.
