    Official EVGA Ampere Queue Thread

    I ended up getting a zotac 3080 amp holo from zotac's site back in early November for $769 but I kept the queues just to see how long it would take. Still nothing and my earliest was back in September 24th. Kinda wild.

    RTX 3000 Buyer Success Rate Poll

    A 3080 or 3090 and what was the queue date? I'm queued for the September 24th for a 3080 on all but the ultra card -which is the 26th. Haven't heard anything yet but I'm assuming they still aren't done with the massive backlog of launch day orders. I really hope they're getting more than like 5...

    If Navi matches 3080 in Raster performance but not Ray Tracing... will we care?

    If the performance is there and the price is right then yes. I haven't liked anything I've seen from DLSS or Ray Tracing yet aside from demos. The performance is so awful it just isn't worth it. Being on a 144hz 1440p screen nvidia has a long way to go and seeing the ray tracing performance was...

    Retailer's Statistics Claim Higher RMA Rate for AMD 5000 Series GPUs Than Nvidia's Turing

    I have a zotac 2080 ti right now that has been amazing. 66C full load temps. When I changed my case to one with no side panel fan it went up a little. Also not the prettiest but it's solid.

    iCUE 3.29.110

    I haven't had a good version of corsair icue ever. The Corsair display adapter crashes with the 60 release and now icue crashes on 110. I don't know what to do with it anymore except to maybe uninstall it. I had similar problems with corsair link but I never had to restart corsair link manually...

    NVIDIA 445.87 and Hotfix 445.98 Driver Issues

    I don't use the geforce experience but in the nvidia control panel>system information I am seeing 445.98. Probably just a small bug.

    NVIDIA 445.87 and Hotfix 445.98 Driver Issues

    I downloaded it from the geforce driver forum. You can probably get it from guru3d as well.

    I haven't noticed any issues either. Glad the HDR fixed.

    Updating my GeForce RTX 2080 / Game Ready Driver / Studio Driver

    I just download the drivers off nvidia's site with the DCH label. It usually installs the control panel for me without having download anything from the store and I also don't have to use the geforce experience. Pretty easy.

    Anyone having constant game crashes with Ryzen 2

    I had this with my x370 taichi and my 3800x. Ended up changing my board to a "cheap" msi board and it doesn't crash anymore. I also broke my cpu clamp though so that was mostly why I did it. The board was stable with my old 1700x with the bad clamp but I decided to change it because the taichi...

    Any luck installing a 3000 Ryzen on an X370?

    Just got as 3800x in the mail today from amazon. Going to give it a go in my x370 later today. Hopefully all goes well.

    4k gaming is Dumb

    I switched over to a 144hz monitor last year. Been wanting one for since the CRT days when I'd play lower resolutions just for the high refresh rates. If you're even remotely competitive and haven't switched to 144hz+ yet, then you're doing yourself a disservice. I figure the sweet spot is 2k...

    Intel i7-9700K Appears on SiSoftware Database: 8 Cores, No Hyper-Threading

    Wow. If that's true then the i9 is basically an i7. They did nothing but just add a lower end SKU and gimp the i7's. What a mess.

    NVIDIA Releases Firmware Update For Displayport 1.3 and 1.4

    Wow. Every so often I get a blank screen and kept thinking it could possibly be my Ryzen system with bad ram or board combo so I would turn off the system off and on until it worked. System is completely stable otherwise so this may explain it. I run display port with an MSi 1070. Maybe it's...
