Turkey has the same nominal voltage as the UK, 230V. Not that your mains voltage makes any difference as the appropriate power supply for your country will output at the required 12V for the RTX 4090.

That isn't fair. OcUK can't be held responsible for a bad employee at a completely different company, even if it isn't some bizarre mistake.

Agree. If that's the case Amazon better start using plain tape. Plus the sender address is on DPD label. It's a kneejerk comment with little thought behind it.
Just received a Zotac Airo extreme 4090 which I bought to replace my 4090 aorus Master that died. What a nightmare it was to fit it into my Haf 700 evo case as for such a giant case and I couldn’t even fit it in horizontally without excessively bending the adaptor cable which I didn’t think was a good idea to do. Mounted it vertically in the end so that the Nvidia adaptor cable is nice and straight but the adaptor gets in the way visually which is not great but it will do until I can get an atx 3.0 PSU with a right angle connector. Just ran a quick ac vahalla benchmark and there is minimal difference between the Zotac and Gigabyte Aorus card but the Zotac card worked out £390 cheaper in the end so that’s a positive result
The plain brown box probably caught fire in the courier's hands and he thought "Jeez I'm having that must be a 4090"
this is what happens when your courier company basically has the same business model as ubereats and it's randomers turning up for a shift rather than contracted employees like it used to be.

I have the same thought with Lovehoney tape!
All I have from the couriers app is photo of someone elses open front door and feet, with no sign of the parcel.
They’re supposed to photo the parcel in the doorway.
I may walk up to the village and see if I can identify the house in the photo.
I thought they were supposed to be discreet? used them years ago and it was just a plain box
probably the guys own house.
tell them you would have photograph the employee with the parcel but it wasn't possible since he never came to your house.

Definitely worth putting power consumption to 80%. Lost 4fps and saved myself 80w in a demanding scenario (Control Native 4k Max RT settings).
Doesn't mean that'll be the case in all games. Those that are more memory bandwidth limited will fare better with reduced power than those that are more computationally limited.

I took it to 70% tried a few games it generally lost 4-6fps. Might be the odd exceptions but I'm pretty happy. Max power draw for any game is 350w.
Why so negative? He didn't say it would be the case in all games..

I can't believe how bad DPD have become. They used to be pretty good, but now are absolutely terrible.
I wasn't being negative, just stating that the negligible performance reduction may not be reflected in all games, in case anyone else was planning on giving it a go.
yea they built up a reputation then cashed in on it once all the etailers were using them...
I refuse to order from anywhere that forces DPD on me, they don't even try to deliver to mine, they just take a photo from the van and drive off because gaining access to an apartment block even when you pay for before 10am or whatever is too much trouble...
it's not like someone is going to pay for an early service and then not be at home is it.
The last time I phoned up straight away and was told the driver wasn't answering his phone so they couldn't get him to come back... bet he didn't even get a warning or anything... probably business as usual

Mate be happy with the Phantom, I actually love the look of the Gainward Phantom, It looks clean, Stealthy and solid, If I hadn't have already had one that's the one I would I have got, It looks the best imo.

@Gibbo Can I swap my Inno for the Phantom 
only joking I wished you'd have got these for release day haha

I would consider springing extra for international shipping to the US. for the phantom if I weren't worried about warranty.
I like the look of that thing.
