I thought it wouldn’t even boot up as it will tell you to connect the additional power
Plug?

I think because the card doesn't have a 3rd physical connector it won't flag up as not connected.

bit of a cheeky request, ive bought a COD cold war code and was wondering if someone would be kind enough to redeem it for me?

Found this for MSRP at a local store, it will tie me over until the 3080ti arrives!

A nice elderly man knocked on my door, poor man could barely walk and told me that dpd left a parcel that didn't belong to him at his house. So I headed over to collect it from him, dpd left it on a totally different road

My Zotac Trinity finally arrived.
I know it isn't everyone's favourite card but I think I'll be happy.

TNA · 14 Nov 2020 at 21:26

Anyone else been messing around overclock/undervaulting their card?

I have managed to get around stock performance undervaulting running at around 250w and completely silent fan profile. Done stability tests and seems stable so far. Done another one that is around 100MHz faster and is about 10w less power than stock, though the fan is audible, but far from jet engine like. Both profiles pretty much lock the targeted core speed unlike stock which fluctuates like mad depending on load.

Finally have an all out overclock with around 380W being used, but I honestly do not see the point in it as there is like less than 10% difference in performance between it and the totally silent profile that sucks 130w less power. At least it is there is I ever need the extra performance in the future in certain games.

Hey guys.

A bit late for the party I guess. Firstly congratulations to all the 3080 owners and best of luck for all the hunters out there.

I got lucky while writing a work email and got a sweet notification for a Palit 3080 Gmaing pro OC which I managed to buy at a decent price £740 arriving in 48 hours!

I already have a confirmed pre-order of a zotacTrinity OC with another retailer (which is expected 30th of Nov) and an Asus tuf 3080 with overclockers (queue position in 700s)

We all know how asus tuf have been s***t show and it might not come until next year so I want your valuable opinions especially from the owners of these models to decide between the palit and zotac.

I can't afford and have no intention of keeping 3 different 3080s and planning to keep only 1

Help would be really appreciated

Keep the one you actually have managed to buy, there all so similar it doesn’t really matter. A couple of C here or there doesn’t make any material difference and none of them overclock particularly well because they are already running close to their theoretical maximum out of the box.

Cancel the Zotac once you have the other one in hand and have confirmed it works but before it ships.
