Maybe try find an cheap open box with 5080. Some got lucky. Sub $700 ain't bad. And some bought trash. 3 or 4 see same problem in the same thread. AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT Content Creation Review If you go for the cheapest 5090 you find you may go break even when the next gen is out (no loss when you sell it in the used market). If you are after content creation then you should really look at 5090 or damn cheap 5080. Pick your poison (everything is expencive anyway).

Yup, I will use it. And you can play with the PL slider and curve for the voltage for daily use to reduce the chances for melting connector. Asus really screwed up this gen. And Nvidia should have made it for two power connectors as standard for all 5090's (Because the 5090 ain't a 600W card). And Asus try hiding behind Nvidia's threats to lock out everything that smells oc'ing is a Joke. Nvidia knows what Galax offers with their HOF cards. Nvidia know Galax offer OC tools and XOC firmware. This won't change. But as usual, Asus really don't want offer people what some of the enthusiasts want. Asus is more a pure a gamer boy brand now. More like Razer. Not a real power house the enthusiasts want from the brand. The BTF design for the limited Edition of the Matrix is a slap in the face for performance enthusiasts. The choice of that card design was meant to to help upsell/marketing of their BTF boards that sell in low quantity.

What more could we hope for @Mr. Fox ? Are they trying to tell us what they know, but not saying it? Let'm bleed. The European Central Bank warns about the AI bubble: the frenzy could trigger deep corrections in the technology market and… The European Central Bank's (ECB) latest warning comes at a time when Artificial Intelligence is underpinning much, if not almost all, of global stock market growth.

What a coincidence with the leak of the Astral 5090 XOC. Within a week after the Matrix bios got released for everyone, and that almost none of the owners of Asus cards could use. Hmm, I don't believe in Santa bro @Mr. Fox. I'm too old for that. What else could it be? A$us try avoid further bad publicity for the brands overpriced GPU's=? Hmmm. I'm sure I know the answer. Same with you😎 https://www.overclock.net/posts/29533017/ Edit. Jup, Asus had to do something.... Matrix BIOS can even be flashed to "HP OEM" lmao. Binning hundreds of Astrals to find one that clocks the highest in Valley, then ASUS ruins it. https://www.overclock.net/posts/29533316/

Microsoft set the standard for gaming....

Just wonderful. Microsoft try make Windows 11 better than ever bro @Mr. Fox 🙂

Bank of America: – Too late to avoid a stock market crash It is too late to avoid a drop of at least 20 percent in the stock market as a result of AI, says Bank of America, which emphasizes that the timing is difficult. "Bigger booms result in bigger crashes, and history suggests it is too late to avoid a collapse," the bank writes in the report, which estimates a fall of over 20 percent. Warning from China: The robot bubble could burst. According to Reuters, the Chinese government has identified a stark gap between investment and actual demand. While robots are frequently showcased at trade fairs, they are rarely seen in factories or homes. The situation brings to mind China’s bike-sharing crisis that began around 2017, when millions of rental bikes were manufactured for companies like Ofo, only to end up unused and piled in scrap yards. Should the "robot bubble" burst, billions in investments could vanish overnight and many companies would likely collapse.

Yup. For AI GPUs to China. Nvidia has reportedly asked Samsung to double its production of GDDR7, possibly for AI GPUs to China—although we're hoping for some more VRAM-stacked RTX 50-series Super cards Oh great, the latest rumours suggest Nvidia might stop bundling VRAM with its GPUs, because who cares about cheap graphics cards

Where is the QC ? Gigabyte also failed QC when they started to use thermal putty on their graphics cards. Brand new 5070 TI, noticed this immediately, anyone have seen something like this before? I have not plugged it in, and do not intend to do so.

Railway to Hell....... Microsoft just can't stop making wrong choices.

Railway to Hell....

RTX6000 aready tested with Geekbench. Come with 84GB GDDR7. Better use the scarce vram chips for consumer products than for AI workstations in China. But max profits beats common sense. Nvidia with good help of the jokes in the US adm now targeting AI hardware demand in China. NVIDIA RTX 6000D made-for-China GPU: 84GB GDDR7, lower clocks, slower than RTX PRO 6000 And Samsung is finally ready to help Nvidia to feed the Chinese market with GPUs for AI workflow. Samsung begins mass production of 28 Gbps GDDR7 3GB memory, faster variants now sampling

8 out of 10 cards sold in the market is probably air cooled cards. And the average gamer Joe #if buying xx90's" prefer air cooled cards. And not sure even with help some won't connect the tiny trash correctly to the card. Even pros can fail the same task. And if you connect it properly that doesn't necessarily mean the current will be balanced between each of the 12V pins. And you may see if you succeded after a few months/a year. Use of clamp meter is needed if you want to be 100% sure everything is correctly connected. But I expect the average pc user will never test it this way. It's plug and play.

Let'm burn. One by one. What brands doesn't matter. Will never come a proper fix before most of them melt to crispy crunch... A Zotac RTX 5090 Solid completely burns out its connector!
