Aorus Master / Extreme (3080+3090) Thread

I'm running an AX1200. Not worried about the draw, what I was getting at was that card power limit is what's limiting my OC headroom because the GPU only has 2 x 8-pin connectors (vs. the 3 x 8-pin other cards have).

Ah, I see... Hmm. Well, if you're in it for the overclock, the "Xtreme" has 3x power connectors and a higher TDP cap, IIRC (do check, don't take my word for it). That would mean returning it and joining the queue again though...

Balls. I should have looked in this more before ordering a 3090 Master. As it's only got 2x 8-pin, I'm guessing it's power limited to 375Watts. I'm continuously hitting power limit and unable to OC further.

What would you do? Return / sell and get another card or just keep hold of it?

Right now auction it on ebay. Yes you have screwed up but at least a few hundred £££ will compensate for your time.
 
Hi all, an unexpected Sunday surprise, I had notification that my Aorus 3080 Master is being shipped. I was 3rd in the queue on yesterday’s email (and last Friday). I assumed it would not be until post Xmas, but looks like I have been lucky.

NICEE!!!! I'm 16 so hopefully would go down to 6 now the 10 might've have been dispatched

I ordered my Aorus Master 3080 on the 2nd October. I can't remember if there was a free game that came with the preorder? Can anyone shed any light on this?
Have you got it yet? I think Ocuk ran out of codes but it’ll depend when you get the card and who you order it from
