With undervolting profiles I tend to find it uses less than stock.
Agree, it opens up more options for all the game variations.

With an undervolt mine uses between 400 and 450w in modern gaming titles at relatively hefty settings in 4K. Synthetic benchmarks will get near 600W but who cares about them.
Interesting if true.

Seems pretty standard of Nvidia to take advantage of the most loyal customers to sell them an unfit product for it to last only a few months before being "improved" so they can buy again.
Wouldn't be shocked if it's true.

They do when at full load. Heaps of games can't keep all 24 thousand cores permanently occupied so the games run well under 600w

Is it safe to update nvidia drivers?
I saw a Jayz2cents video while i was away on holiday for all of last week in Sicily and he basically said that the temp readings do not change on MSI afterburner and the likes and basically makes fan profiling redundant.
He then later posted another video stating there is a BETA driver available that fixes it but that BETA driver is not easily found on nvidia's website.
Has this BETA driver been published as stable?

Though the 5070S is a bit of a surprise the 24GB 5080 was always going to happen, hopefully as soon as possible as it's desperately needed to fill the vast gap in the current product stack now that the 4090 is unobtainable except at hugely inflated used prices.Interesting if true.

This being nVidia though I'll expect maximum disappointment - so it'll probably appear early next year, perform about 5% better than 5080 at most as per x080S tradition (a performance advantage that will probably evaporate when both are overclocked, as the memory bus is apparently still 256-bit) and cost around £1500 as a 4090 "replacement" despite not matching it, meaning those of us who want a >16GB card without paying £2k+ for a small thermonuclear reactor will still be worse off than we were about a year ago before 4090 prices went stratospheric.
I put the BETA on yesterday (5090 Gaming OC) and has been fine and gained about 100 points in 3D Mark. Then again i have been lucky and not has any of the issues others have been having.

Is it worth setting power management to performance in the programs tab of NVCP for games, or is normal good enough?

@Sc00p007 Jokes mate, the heatkiller has been pushed again to 15.05.25! That's like a 2 month delay from the original release date.Sure am, these delays have cost mepre ordered the Heatkiller, after a few weeks thought, hmmm maybe add a new rad as my setup was a little loud last summer. Rad arrives, block gets delayed. Hmmm maybe a new fan controller, and maybe swap a d5 for apex vpp. Then a week or two pass and i'm swapping out my fans
Really hope the block is ready Monday, but Watercool haven't replied in their Reddit to people asking if it is on schedule. So, i'm guessing they haven't landed yet, as they have replied to other posts.
That's interesting. It looks like an entire row of pins has melted? That's not what we usually see.
Pity there aren't more pictures of the PC setup. It's hard to speculate on what happened without more info.
I've been on the 576.15 hotfix drivers since Friday and they've been ok for me so far. They're not perfect, but they are an improvement on the "stable" drivers.
Yeah no surprise at a 5080 24GB. It's what it should have been originally, and why I didn't consider the 5080 as a choice. The 16gb felt pathetic for it.
If auto-translate is correct it seems like the user was only running a 400W game for a while before it blue screened due to the melting, and the PSU is a superflower 1300w. The cable looks like a MSI one though? So I'm a bit confused, unless superflower are using the yellow connectors now too.
No idea why the post is age locked, lol.

Yeh, i got my hopes up because a couple of them, the Silver, were showing available with 3-4 days delivery this afternoon. Rechecked 2hrs later and all now showing 15/05.

Will be interesting to see outside of the memory what exactly is Super about these considering the 5080 already uses the full GB203.
