The Ampere RTX 3090 Owners Thread

I did just notice that my FTW3 ULTRA doesn't have the red 'lips' accent on the end. Instead it is black. Awesome!

Oh right! Finally.

With this new lockdown, I wonder how many will cave and all those £1600+ 3090's go out of stock this week?

I paid that for mine lol. Get some serious gaming time in now.

Quick question:
I'm using a Palit GamingPro non-OC.
I was expecting the boost to be up to 1695, as advertised, but (not complaining here) playing few games I can see the boost at 1950+. Temperature during gaming, mid 60's.
Haven't changed anything yet.
Normal behaviour?

VincentHanna · 5 Jan 2021 at 19:21

Absolutely normal.

Nice.
Temperature isn't too bad either. Was going down the watercooling route but I'm quite happy with noise/performance for now.

Since purchasing an MSI Gaming X Trio 3090 a few weeks ago, I've noticed that some stock of 3090's (e.g. my card, plus the Asus Strix 3090, and loads of others) are out of stock or not listed anywhere now.

What's going on, are there newer cards coming or have retailers stopped bothering to list them?

I got nothing against anyone buying them, if I didn't have a 3080 I'd be one of them I reckon. I guess this top end of the 3090's is the weather vane of demand - if they all go out of stock.

I want a concept 2 Rower. £860 they are direct (15 week wait) Some 2nd hand ones go for more than new ones! And the scalped ones are £1200-£1600. And my stomach's only gone in one direction, soon it will be going down, as well as out.

I've enjoyed my 2080ti letting my kid use it when the new card gets here .

Does it sag much? Mine doesn't I wonder if its down to the metal quality on the backplate of the case my current corsair is fine but the old TT case I used to have the metal was so soft it'd have bent under the weight

Now it appears they have skimped on the components used in the FTW series anyway so the reasons for anybody to buy EVGA in the UK is getting less and less,.

FTW 1080 was like that I havn't touched one since.

No, it doesn't sag at all in my case once the backplane screws were tightened up, it's a solid beast of a card.
I think it does depend on the case quality, though.

I had planned to use a lego structure as a support, so included Hulk and Iron Man as decoration.

It comes with an adjustable support pole thingy in the reviews i seen of the 3080 and 3070 versions.

The FE models? They do not at least 3090 and 3080 do not come with an adjustable pole in the box or anything. Just a tiny box with adaptor and small manual in the box. I would assume the 3070FE does not either given the bigger ones do not, but not opened one of them.

Yep, no support with my 3090FE either but TBF, it doesn’t sag at all in my 750D anyway.
