NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080Ti to be "available" on June 3rd, RTX 3070Ti on June 10th

Did the 3070ti ever appear? Apparently, it seems to be a fictional card for the general public that hasn't landed at any shops in the UK or US.

I've seen 750W crap out with 3080 and 700W fail with 3070 so don't get too overconfident about that statement. Quality is everything when the graphics cards are so prone to power spikes

Definitely this. Don't just look at the number before the wattage, quality is everything and it is best to have more in reserve. I wouldn't go with less than a quality Gold+ 850W for a 3090.

Deals look quite good (in the current market) with lowered post access threshold of 50 (only 48 more to go). Had foolishly half hoped to get a 3070ti to upgrade from my Vega 64 but failed to see a buy now button. Truth is though I bought that (Vega 64) card from Overclockers for £332 November 2018. A 3070ti is 1.5fps + raytracing improvement for of 1.6 * the price of my last card. Does my valve index and 3440*1440 screen really need the upgrade with presently available games. And at what price point do I blink. Seen some 3070 around for 1K.
 
Got my 3080ti FE today, plugged it in, got a copy of Cyberpunk, and genuinely suprised at how loud the fans run under load. It reminds me of my PS4 when it's having a bit of a hard time under the telly.

Duh, a 3080 cooler on a Ti, not shocked at all. All reviews have said it runs hot and loud.

My 3090 is actually not too loud under load, It's a little louder than the AIO 1080ti I had in there previously so for an air cooled card I'm quite surprised. I've not looked into it but apparently the 3080 & 3090 coolers are different though.

My PS4 pro used to do the same was horrendous with noise, maybe post a video so we can see I was hoping for a 3080ti but don’t know if I can handle that whirlwind when gaming

Perhaps I was expecting too much, not sure :)

Sure thing. I'll pop one up tomorrow
 
I've always steered away from FE cards in the past because they've always been hot and loud but didn't really have much choice this time around. Definitely glad I got the 3090 because I'm used to almost silent PC's.

Its not really the FE coolers that are the problem this time round its the cheap crap plaster of paris type thermal pads they used on the components. When you pull them apart inside are threads of white cotton. Also the poor quality TIM they have used.

The Ti has the same TDP as the 3090 but uses the same cooler as the 3080. Not a great plan as it has to deal with an extra 30W.

Around an extra kilo of metal.

You want to try Undervolting as you can shave off nearly 10C and 100w with minimal performance loss.
