If software could brick components, that would be so cool, chaos everywhere.
It is EVGA fault that their protection measurements do not work. Once again they failed with gpu sector. Letting overheat, eat more power or what is the case.
Gtx 1080 ti was my first and last gpu from them.
Embarrassing to see another article mindlessly repeating JayzTwoBraincells and his claims based on zero evidence whatsoever. There isn't a shred of evidence that any non-EVGA card is experiencing widespread failures whilst playing New World. His claims were based entirely on random emails sent to him, with zero proof attached or even a basic breakdown of what the problem these people supposedly experienced was.
This. The rest is all bullshit. Cards being bricked by a high FPS Menu? And next, it was 'during gameplay'? Which is it, now?
The simple fact remains that within the last five years EVGA managed multiple bad releases, they reinvented their coolers for the umpteenth time and the overall failrate is still higher than most other AIBs right now. It being just the 3090, while other cards are nearly as fast, is another writing on the wall. This is not 'because the 3090 is so fast'. Its because that specific EVGA model is shite. Take special note of the fact EVGA was rushing out their warranty card straight away. Round of applause... you get to RMA your card. yay.
Tuber hype, so helpful to clear our minds... /s
Exactly. History repeats and every gen EVGA is in the picture in a bad way. I remember them fucking up since Kepler. Today everything they market is overinflated nonsense. Look at that cooler. (E) logo's on the fans? HurrrrAnd as also pointed out on that other thread, EVGA have had similar issues before with bad VRM design that resulted in 1000 series cards dying. They really need to up their game rather than just rely on the "I buy EVGA for the magically awesome warranty & customer service" crowd's goodwill not thinning out over time.
