NVIDIA 4000 Series

I will likely just end up with a 5070 assuming tiers and pricing are similar. Will no doubt have at least 16GB and be more efficient than what we have now. Not enough time for gaming to warrant spending too much more. Maybe a 5070 Ti if it is not a dud like the 4070 Ti.

As long as I can hit 60fps I am good :D
The 5070 will be the chip that would have originally been called the 5050. It will still have 12gb memory, and a pitiful bus.
Restricted to PCI-e 8x for good measure too. :D
Yours for the bargain price of 900 British pounds, plus VAT.

Nvidia sets new AI worlds record

The Nvidia Eos super computer, made up of 10,752 H100 GPUs was able to train the entire Chat-GPT AI model with hundreds of billions of parameters in under 4 minutes

The H100 is the worlds current premier AI and ML GPU solution, offering 4000tflops of fp8 performance at 700w versus 2500tflops at 850w from AMD's best, the MI300x, making the H100 not just the brute performance king, but also the efficiency king by producing 5.7 teraflops of performance per watt versus 3 teraflops per watt for AMD

My Strix 4090 is faulty(black screen idle) and they have went up loads :mad:
Hi, are you using a 3rd party PCIE 12VHPWR such as Cablemod by any chance? I have this exact issue with black screen at idle but I have basically worked around it with software changes to power in bios and Windows and rarely comes up. I really should swap back to the PSU one though!

Many people reporting this and said they changed to the PSU native cable (if able) or the daisy chain Nvidia one etc. that came with the card or a different 3rd party one.

Just using the adaptor that comes with it, for the price it should just work flawless out of the box using a 1200 EVGA platinum PSU.

Yeah Asus will want me to go to the retailer as only like 5 months, even says on website to speak with retailer first. In past it's been 1st year retailer will handle and then years 2/3 its manufacturer.

I have a 3090 and mostly play Wow so its not major issue, just annoying.

I was expecting the retailer to say go to ASUS as it was outside of 30 days to be honest, I wouldn't normally use them but they had a 20% code on it at the time which brought it down to cheaper than anywhere else by decent margin.

I'd go back to ASUS and explain the situation, say that the retailer is only offering a refund and not a repair and that you'd really like the card fixed as the refund on offer won't cover the full purchase price of a new one.

Personally I'd take the refund and run, I've never had a good experience with Asus and their RMA service will most likely be a 3rd party who'll send you a ropey refurb likely as faulty as what you sent to them :(
