Yikes, Will do!

New boxes made and vbios to rename it 4070 lower the price

Yep bet they are stoked about that.

I have this card, but I can't say I'm seeing that. Can you post a pic and I will confirm yay or nay if it's the same.

Hard to capture on photo as it even outs a lot after photo is taken but you can still see the difference;

Well if it ends up as a software change to lock the 4080 into a 4070, someone may figure out how to unlock it or flash the BIOS.

It used to be a thing many years ago.

I'm guessing the spec / performance will be the same as the 4080 12gb, it's just going to be called a 4070.

They will just give an intern a sharpie and tell them to draw a 7 over the 8

I installed GFE, do I have to do anything else to get an invite for a 4090?

Yes, be extremely lucky.

Hahaha. This is Nvidia we’re talking about here!

Wouldn’t be surprised if they turn off something so that they leave scope for a Ti at a later date.

Ah yeah, sorry, I thought you meant along the side of the card. That looks normal to me.

 

[Vertigo]

Probably not now it's been cancelled.

I see what you did there

Ah brilliant so yours is the same?

This is Nvidia, they'll relaunch it as a 4070 ti and charge $700+

Maybe this was the plan from the start, next level big brain strategy. EVGA wasn’t onboard with this and that was the real reason they bailed

 

[Gypsum Fantastic]

Yup. I think the LEDs are just off to one side. It's deliberate.

 

[Grim5]

has anyone found a review that compared CPU's using the 4090 to see which CPUs are best?

Even next next level big brain strategy: Getting rid of EVGA was the entire purpose of this plan, Nvidia got rid of the biggest AIB in North America to sell more FE

I haven’t seen anyone cross their legs since the carpet in primary school. That brings back memories
