are physical stores not all closed?

Loving that, that's very different...
Found this for MSRP at a local store, it will tie me over until the 3080ti arrives!
After all that rubbish about 10gb he goes and upgrades from his 16GB card to a 10GB card.
Hahahaahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I recon what you should do then is wait another 3-6 months and nvidia will release a 3070 or 3070Ti that will have 16gb and be more in your budget and give you the piece of mind you desire
Well that's' why I not so fussed that I a still 940 ish in the queue. Gives me time to see what might still happen and see if any games during this time need more than 10GB.
Have you had a chance to put the card through it's paces?
Just running benchmarks and demos at the moment. Will do a round up of everything here soon
See! Told you most people are good! Hope it's all you expect it to be!
Yeah most people are good , thank god for that
I'm off to work now so I'll install it once I get home.

I'm at 1440p as well so the VRAM is less of an issue for me than someone at 4k.

Anyone on the msi trio x, I flashed the evga ftw3 ultra bios and the rgb still works but you get no extra from it.
The Strix oc bios gets you massive gains.but the rgb turns off
I went from 11550 port royal to 12200 and core mhz from 1930 to 2130 - 2170

Didn't know you could do that. Is there a chance you could brick the card? Could you do that with a Ventus?
Soldato
The trio has 3 x 8 pins so can handle the 400+watts, I don't think the ventus would cope, probably just crash or worst case it would need flashing back
You can flash a 3 pin card to a 2 pin card but as the card tries to pull power from 3 pins but only has 2 it lowers the power not raises it.
The ventus can handle over 400w no problem but the only way to get that power is by shunt modding.

This arrived today. Just a heads up if you're ordered for a EKWB for the 3080/90 TUF they are in stock but the back plates aren't. I spoke to them yesterday and they were holding the block for the back plate to comes in, there is no eta on those yet. I asked them to ship the block and I'll fit the back plate when they arrive.
