NVIDIA RTX 50 SERIES - Technical/General Discussion

All depends if you’re only playing this one title or not… I’m not saying the card is worth a grand, it just comes down to in individual if they want it over the 5070ti or AMDs offerings.

Not everyone is suffering from the driver issues but you’ll only read about people having issues which has been an abnormal amount recently

I’ve not really seen any issues with the latest driver, hopefully it stays that way with future releases :o

576.28 has been okay so far. The previous versions have been a disaster though.

Just a speedy one, I finally gave in and bought a 5070 Ti. Uninstalled and DDU for old drivers and a fresh install of the 573.11 drivers.
A quick bench on 3DM Steel Nomad netted 6347 (i7-10700k @ stock 32gb DDR4 @ 18K), is that ball park ?
HW monitor reports peak of 68 deg for GPU and 299.6W power. Assuming they are par for course ?

Any particular reason for not running the latest driver (576.28)?
 
Does anyone have a way to enable custom fan speed control with fan stop ?
I can set a custom curve on Afterburner, but then the minimum is 30%. I would like the fans to stop below 35 deg similar to default, but spin a little harder than default as I can lose 5 deg easily without it being too noisy at all by ramping the target to 50% speed at 60 deg instead of the defaults 40 ish.

I found if you enable firmware control mode you can get fan stop back but the downside is you don't get as much control over the curve.
 
Thanks @Rawr That has got it, best bit is it doesn't even need afterburner running in the background :)
Only 3 points for control isnt an issue either TBH, 0 to 35 deg, 51% at 60 deg and 100% at 75 deg, That is keeping it under 60 deg with the furmark gpu stress test with the fan hovering around 47%.
 
I saw some rumors of 5070 Super with 18GB of VRAM - is that kinda real thing, could this come out at some point in the future?

It would just take them swapping out the 2gb memory chips for 3gb chips, which have been available for gddr7 since launch.

I believe when asked at launch they said that it wouldn't have been cost effective. But is definitely a thing they could do.

I hope it would be 15-20% faster than vanilla, plus what they saying that prices could be kept as vaniall versions - that would be good.
I'm not planning to get rid of my new spanking 9070XT, but for future, its good to have options better than those terrible 5070.
 
I think the vram for nvidia has been shortchanged for a while now, by my thinking a 5070 ti should have had 20 and a 5080 24 minimum.
It not like its short in supply as far as I know, so it makes sense to make a "super" with more Vram.

There were reports about the 3GB chips being short on supply, hence using them for the laptop 5090 only. Perhaps that + Nvidia's usual stingy self, are the reason for the Super cards receiving a bump in VRAM.

I only got it a few days ago. Had a feeling this or worse could happen due to Trump.

This is like my 4th GPU since my 3080. Still not spent what some people did for their 3090's :cry:
