I am surprised, I wonder how much has been clipped for being of topic. BTW post #475

I wish the best for Kingpin.

Has Kingpin made a comment or Tim I think his name is, their GPU vrm guru.

And not enough got cut there's pages of tuber talk, relevant, not.

Me too i'm fed up with Nvidia, overpriced cards, some drivers near kills your gpu because of bugs, cards won't last as old days 4/5 years+, now their card dies in 2/3 years or right after ends of guarantee, because of bad components, specialy mid range cards, now they are pushing this lie of DLSS, that every one can do with just changing resolution in game settings, time to change to AMD, graphically its the same, proof that all Nvidia tech (RT/DLSS) etc, are just BULLSHIT.

I believe TiN left EVGA a few years back? A quick search doesn't tell me anything, but I believe I heard this a while ago. Kingpin's comment is pictured in a post on the previous page of this thread.

Killing eliminating another USA company (incomplete, obviously. Yet?).
No, it's not intentional, all coincidences are purely coincidental (Asian companies are rubbing their hands).

 

[NoneRain]

They should go with Intel. Not joking.
Would love to see more competition on the segment.

Three years post-launch, that's what they should cost, crypto or no.

Thanks for the laugh poirot, the leap of logic there is Astounding with a capital Ass.

You shouldn't have brand new 2060's to sell in September 2022, that's why they're losing money.

4 years post launch. Jan 2019 to Jan 2023 will be exactly 4 years. 2019, 2020, 2021 and 2022..

You can get a brand new Radeon RX 6600 for the same cash these days.

Ok, I misinterpreted what you were saying. That may not be the case, though. If they're getting a good deal on the chips, it should be entirely possible to sell them at a price that makes a profit.

Nvidia released a refresh version Dec 2021 sooo.

If they were getting a good deal and making money they wouldn't be ending the business and asking for discounts from Nvidia, seems pretty obvious.
Bought all they could and couldn't to cash on crypto, and clearly have excess of crap.

You can. And I would. I made some bad assumptions about exchange rate above. Though the cheaper 2060 from the links above is EUR254, and the least-expensive 6600 on the same site is EUR299. Doesn't seem all that out of line.

*shrug* It was simply a hypothetical.

EVGA were pushed out of this market with those cost policies and the last-minute price announcements from nVidia who needed more space in the market to sell their FE GPUs...

Something is very, very fishy with EVGA dropping their main source of income...

Not being allowed to get more than 5% for every custom-made GPU sold is enough to aboandon any market me thinks. I would do the same personally.

I would do something else. Optimise the head count and move the locations to cheap parts of either Europe or Africa.

The 1080 disaster was not a "mistake" or a "defect", was the result of a design choice.

Which was clearly a mistake, one that was swiftly fixed.

They also make cards with very small heatsinks for the card that it is, i know i got one of those. Is their aluminium premium or their plastic from premium sources?

I'm not answering that except to say that you are welcome to your subjective opinions.

You can't be defending that idiot on this one.

That says more about you than anything else. Look in a mirror, take your time.

The guy that was been doing this for so long, made a "best guess" no one agreed with, come on. That's not a guess, that's driving on the wrong side of the highway idiocy.

You're missing the point. And YOU are calling Jay the idiot??

He's been in my ignore list for a while. It seems like it was the right decision as im not the only one tired of arguing with a wall.

You're welcome! Go boil your head peanut-boy.

No, not at all. Unless that was sarcasm... Dumpster fires like this thread do not thrill moderators. Trust me on that one.

@W1zzard
You remember what we were talking about?

JayZ has always been a shill who isn't even particularly good at his main channel's focus - watercooling.

He talks a lot of crap and is unexplainably popular for some reason.

There's people who defend him, and yes, he occasionally puts out accurate, well rounded content, but as a huge techtuber his responsibility is to not make false claims, and if he does, to immediately retract them with a public announcement/apology. AFAIK he does not do this, and has consistently gotten things wrong over the years without taking back what was said. OK, so he maybe changes his tune in future videos, but that's irrelevant.

This is TPU staff... Yeah...

"You know, Andrew (EVGA CEO) wanted to wind down the business, and he's wanted to do that for a couple of years. Andrew and EVGA were, are great partners and we're great partners, and I'm sad to see them leave the market. But, he's got other plans and he's been thinking about it for several years, so I guess that's about it. The market has a lot of great players and it will be served well after EVGA, but I'll always miss them, they were an important part of our history, Andrew is a great friend. I think that it was just time for him to go do something else.""

Well that's....rather damning, if you take leather jacket at his word. Even with a grain of salt, it would be lent some legitimacy given the holes in EVGA's story and reasoning. Nvidia may have played a big part in Andrew wanting to wind down EVGA, but it takes two.

Not being allowed to get more than 5% for every custom-made GPU sold is enough to aboandon any market me thinks. I would do the same personally.

Then how do the likes of asus, gigabyte, and msi manage 7-10% margins? Furthermore, what about the scalping that went on for 2 years? Last time I checked, when the 3080 was selling for $1000 onEVGA's site that was more then 5% of the original profit margin.
