I had no doubts my post was true :music_whistling::music_whistling:

 

and....well not only these cards cost a kidney....they are also garbage :|:mad::doh:

So it points out to rushed release with not enough QA.

 

 

The whole thing looked rushed from the beginning. Rushed out before raytracing was even in games...

 

 

 

The other portion of this entire thing is the impact raytracing has on framerates... this is kind of normal for new tech, but man... less than 60 FPS on 1080p doesn't sound worth it to me.

The FPS for that new Battlefield with RTX.....that's a joke guys.

I expect the tensor cores should be used for other things, like DLSS or advanced AI for games in the near future intead of ray tracing.

Well I have always had good luck with both EVGA and ASUS...only brands I will buy GPUs from. Just now upgrading from a Asus Strix 1080Ti to a EVGA 2080Ti XC Ultra...It appears any of the failure cards do go really quickly so it shouldn't be too much of an issue. I am almost always with my Gaming rig when it is on. And will certainly do so for the early life of my GPU to ensure I got a good one...

I've generally learned that if you buy a good quality brand name, you never have issues. Asus my friends, Asus.

I agree. So far Asus has never failed me yet. Beginning from laptops, ending at GPUs.

You obviously dont build enough Asus PC's to see the truth.

 

I could start a list now with failed and bugged Asus products I came across the last ...from Pentium 166 on I am using Asus only, only sold Asus with Dell as an exception for servers and Workstations I didnt build myself.

 

No, Asus is in no way free of trouble or error, been there and likely will again.

 

Tho I still think, from what is available, Asus is still the King, but not God.

Thats the thing BitMaster, the vast majority of us will never see the volume of issues you will given your career. Asus for the majority of people is, if nothing else, the best bet. In my opinion, by far.

I know, I just wanted to correct the total scope/view one may get after reading this, it's all relative.

Yeah some of this is the price we pay for early being early adopters and the constant quest for bleeding edge speed. I haven't really every been burned.. I haven't had a single EVGA or ASUS product fail me yet either(and I readily admit I probably have a smaller sample size than some of you)...but I will continue my trend of ASUS for Motherboards, EVGA PSUs, and ASUS or EVGA for GPUs, they have never let me down yet(knocking on wood)

From what I have read lately, Gigabyte uses the higher Tier VRM's on the Z370 and Z390 X470 boards vs. Asus Hero/ Crosshair for example. High End Tier vs. Mid Tier VRM solutions. You would need an Apex or Code series board to get the same quality. I was a bit shocked I have to admit.

 

 

I think, this was my last Asus rig for a while. my next GPU is likely EVGA and my next board from Gigabyte with an AMD CPU.

 

 

It's just that, despite the hassle I have with my Z370, it's really fast and I have no othe rneed but Ego to change to AMD...and I think it's wise to put the Ego back and ride this rig a bit longer, at least until 7nm has come ;).

It's worse than that.

 

HardOCP had a "REPLACEMENT" card fail the same way, so be prepared if you ride that train.

 

They should do it like Samsung did it with their great phone release a year ago. Take them back and trash them !!!

 

I am confident 1080ti will go sky high in price again now

Some partner cards are also dying because they use same exact reference PCB just different cooler, so go do full custom cards.... If you realy need the 2080ti.

I might have lucked out for once in my life but still going strong on my XC Ultra from EVGA received 10/23 with +104 core and +607 on the memory (1214mhz effective), though I still like the thought of watercooling it to keep it running at it's highest boostclock, which is really only a difference of about 30mhz for the most part. 100% fan speed is pretty much 60C under full load which is where it begins to throttle from what I've paid attention to, although I've seen it get well up into the 80's when precision forgot my fan curve settings. I did update the BIOS per a link provided by EVGA for increased power target to 130%. Depending on ambient temp it settles at 2020-2050 boost clock and the highest I've seen is 2070.

 

Good luck finding a 1080Ti in stock at an authorized retailer, at least in the U.S. And yep.. 3rd party sellers are selling them for a $1300+ and in some cases may be voiding the manufacturer warranty by having purchased from an authorized retailer to supply their "stock" depending on the brand. Although ebay currently has some listed at reasonable prices, but not many. Personally, there's no way one of these people would ever get my money. Period. I find it pretty sleazy.

 

Used 1080Ti's still like $650 in some cases, some a bit lower perhaps. EVGA at least has a transferable warranty although you may have to ask for a copy of the original owner's invoice. A wingmate of mine from Australia went this route, which makes a lot of sense given the markup on tech even after currency conversion in the outback. But it should be noted that 1080Ti supply is dwindling.

 

 

On another note...I had a 90FPS experience flying over nevada today in free flight when I turned WMR's motion reprojection off in the Odyssey at 1.8PD with no MSAA, unfortunately I dropped as low as 68-70fps once I hit low altitude around vegas and other areas saturated with buildings, which ultimately means that ASW, ASR, or motion reprojection is still going to offer the smoothest gameplay experience at 45fps in VR even on the map that offers the best performance. At least when looking for clarity in text and cockpit guages. Vulkan or a few generations of GPUs may change that. Whichever comes first. Looking at DX12 and Vulkan performance in some recent titles has me thinking we just might see a significant FPS boost on most modern hardware when ED feels confident the DCS is ready for the vulkan API.

 

I really ought to see what this thing does on my monitor in DCS.

I think this is a little overblown and not yet to the point of throwing out a stop sign for everyone considering upgrading. If you're on a really old card and you've been waiting, I wouldn't be scared by the slightly higher than normal failure rates being seen. Your card has a warranty, don't void it. If there turns out to be a defect found, odds are very strong that an RMA card is going to be fixed. If you're running a 1070-1080Ti or a Radeon Vega, I'd relax for a bit and let this work itself out as the upgrade for you won't be as major as someone coming from a much older card.

 

There is always risk in being an early adopter.
