Checked a bit more. There is a few big retail shops that have lots of 4090's. +50 cards of some models. So not a real 4090 shortage here home. See this one.... One of the cheapest 4090 you'll get here. MSI GeForce RTX 4090 VENTUS 3X OC. I converted NOK to USD. And removed the nice Norwegian 25% VAT. So $1,541.24 USD or below MSRP without taxes.

And if you'll accept the awful overprice then you most likely run into less chances for fire😀 Probably better than nothing? Huuu From one of the replies..... Worst timing ever too as 4090s are quite limited or no availability too. Dude, I don’t feel bad for you considering everyone being so blatantly clear that these first gens HAVE ISSUES!!!! You never thought to check Reddit once after purchasing where you would have seen all the failures??? Even a quick google search would work. Try to stay better informed and you’ll be better able to stop things like this from happening. And if you are really brave bro Electro.... But not sure if this brand will replace your GPU for free. Tempted? Maybe they have an variant that fits your GPU🤪 Safe Design EZDIY-FAB 12VHPWR Angled Adapter creates extra space and clearance between your graphics card and side panel. Its reinforced PCB design allows for a zero-bending connection, ensuring full contact with all cable terminals and eliminating the possibility of thermal issues caused by tight bending radii.

The parents company who bought Piriform software (developer of CCleaner) is the well known AV company Avast. What an awful combination.... Always at the forefront of protecting our users If you’re not already aware, CCleaner is owned by Avast, which is one of the world’s largest cybersecurity companies. As a result, our security protocols at CCleaner are of the highest possible standard. As part of their ongoing commitment to security, Avast Threat Labs continuously researches existing and future threats so together, we are always one step ahead of the online bad guys....🤮 See also Avast is now officially spyware - selling user data!

But, but you should be able to grab loads of different 4080's. They come in all colors and even the top of the line models. Run and buy🤮

See my previous post... Nvidia probably needed all the AD102 dies they could produce for the new scaled down data-center chips for China. More profits serving China right now. Edit. Almost no 4090's in the retail shops here home now.

Nvida is desperate selling data-center chips to China. They already have new SKUs ready to soon be shipped. It seems nothing can stop Jensen from reaching his big goals. The AI chip market worth +$7 billions in China is worth to fight for. And they get better paid for AD102 silicon. Greed have no limits. NVIDIA responded quickly to new restrictions on exporting powerful GPUs from the U.S. NVIDIA to launch HGX H20, L20 and L2 GPUs for China https://videocardz.com/newz/nvidia-to-launch-hgx-h20-l20-and-l2-gpus-for-china

This also show why Splave continue use the Asrock Z690 board for world records. Perfectly binned for the choosen one's. I bet he also would struggle in same way as many others if he got vanilla Z690 consumer boards. Weird times. Want better mem overclocking then go with the bigger DDR5 ram sticks. Not very unusal you can overclock 2x24GB 7200 sticks close to +8800. That's +22% overclock. Very seldom you can do the same with the smaller 2x16GB sticks. If you can then you have won the HW lottery 🙂 And not only for the ram sticks.

Imagine if Nvidia have done exactly the same with Turing graphics cards after they have discontinued the linup in 2019 and no more driver support in 2022 ? AMD.........

AMD bring some love to their valuable costomers. As you can see, they really appreciate your never ending support. You all are worthy to get same love back.... Sure!!! Barely 3 years old graphics card will now have a nice life in your drawer/closet. Or you can just throw it in the bin. Love will always come at a price bro @Mr. Fox AMD Polaris and Vega architectures encompass a wide range of GPUs, including Radeon RX 400 series from 2016, the RX 500 SKUs from 2017/2018 and Vega RX 56/64 from 2017. AMD also released Radeon VII with Vega 20 in 2019 and RX 590 GME edition in 2020. Its expected that all these series and products will only get security updates now. NVIDIA still supports older GPU architectures such as GeForce GTX 750 (Maxwell) series from 2014. This fact has been reiterated today by Sean Pelletier, Director of Game Ready Technology at NVIDIA. AMD confirms Polaris and Vega architectures will only to receive critical updates going forward

You are sure this isn't more tempting?😆 Dell now offering $1,949 Alienware Aurora R15 desktops with Intel Arc A770 GPU Although the inclusion of the A770 GPU into the Dell gaming desktop is great news for Intel, the $2K price for this system is not convincing, considering that the A770 GPU could already be found for just $259.

The rest of us have to accept circles of garbage.... How I Set 50 Overclocking Records with Intel's Raptor Lake Refresh CPUs and Plenty of Liquid Nitrogen tomshardware Let’s overclock! For full transparency, I have many close relations in the PC industry, and several sources provided these CPUs. They should be considered higher quality than a normal random draw. Read also.... For my record-setting attempts, I use my trusty ASRock Z690 Aqua OC motherboard. Why not a Z790 motherboard if I have access to whatever I want? Well, to me, Z790 is just a different name for the same thing, much like the 13900K is to the 14900K..... Of course this is possible if you got a hand picked top binned board. I wonder if he would be happy with a vanilla old Z690 board as the rest of us got. That's grossly..... Do you hate me so much?😂

Testers/reviewers need to use the right hardware for their testing. Etc.

Nonetheless, the chipmaker will continue distributing functional, security, and other miscellaneous updates until December 31, 2023. After that, owners of Cryo Cooling Technology products will potentially be left in the cold, with no support for newer Intel processors. The thing with Intel's Cryo Cooling Technology is that it wasn't just about the hardware. Intel had envisioned it to be a small ecosystem comprised of software, firmware, and hardware working in harmony. The chipmaker's unexpected move to discontinue Cryo Cooling Technology puts its partners in a difficult predicament. Luckily, not many vendors had jumped on the Cryo Cooling hype train.

Hmmm. Cablemod rep never responded back on my answer on his reply😀 Oh'well.

The new article from Igorslab is out. I just replied in their comment section.... Will see if Igor reply on it. Or they delete it because of their partnership with Cablemod🙂 Of course Igor Wallosek don't talk much about Cablemod failures with the 12VHPWR melting mess. Can't do that! This (article) or work "of art" is mostly paid for by Cablemod. No doubt. Edit. Got answer back from Igor Wallossek... From the upper floor... I'm directly connected. No marketing, but technicians and managing ppl. The amount is for all shipped 1.1 Or with my own words: If the header can't follow the specs, the cable plug must be able to follow the idiotism More about the topic here.... News Smoldering Headers on NVIDIA’s GeForce RTX 4090 - New Insights, Measurements and (Un)known Causes of the 12VHPWR and 12V-2×6 Issue | igor´sLAB This article sounds like it's attempting to shift blame saying that GPU manufacturers should use adapters with perfectly aligned pins... uh no. The GPU manufacturers didn't intend for people to use any sort of PCB mounted connectors with the GPU. These connectors do not appear to provide the flexibility and self adjustments that cables do. Once you solder on the connector's terminal to the PCB, they are mounted for good in whatever position they were soldered in, they won't self adjust. So the solution isn't that GPU manufactures should adhere to even stricter tolerances than what's prescribed in the PCI CIG, the solution is that people need to stop using PCB mounted connectors that have no self adjustments for each separate terminal like a cable does. This is why the wired connection would always be superior. Not a pcb mounted connector for which the terminals are permanently fixed in one position. Can Cablemod's own moderators try ban you in other of the reddit forums? This is my reply in r/nvidia forum. Right on point as always. I didn't exactly use the word... Liar. Yup... Like magicians. Just use a hat.

A very interesting article from Igorslab will pop up tomorrow. Hope he don't draw wrong conclusions this time. Looking for the final piece of the puzzle for burnt 12VHPWR connectors | Teasers Interesting tidbit here. I wonder what Galax/KFA2 did vs all other to avoid the 12VHPWR melt gate. But from what I see, the use of lower quality/lack of QC has be on of the reasons for much of the melt hell. Hope Igorslab won't be colored by their coparation/partnership with Cablemod. Me have talked about bad quality and bad QC a long time.... And all my talk about this was spot on. ...I can actually only advise that as a manufacturer of these connectors, you should adhere exactly to the specifications and check this constantly and often within a series. Yes, it's a higher cost, but the customer will definitely be grateful. Part of the problem certainly lies in the ************ used, as the incoming goods must be checked more closely by quality control. Since there are many manufacturers of connectors, the quality of the products varies greatly. While the plastic housings were all cast very correctly, things become more problematic with the *********** and its initial quality. LOOOL. The Cablemod moderators delete replies in loads. And look at this....HaHa, the thread topic turned into.... Can anyone instead recommend a new Chassis, LOOL Can anyone recommend the 90 degree (not the adapter) 12 volt for the 4090 suprim x, curious about fitment

So far so good. 7200-7600-7733-7800 and now 8000 on these 2x16GB sticks. Haven't tested for ram stability but benchmarks works ok. I would have seen memory stability problems in Y-cruncher if they was very out of specs and they aren't(good scores). I aim for normal use and as long stability is good enough (no crashes) I'm good. I don't do hours with stress tests. And I don't abuse my HW. Only a non oc'd system can be concluded as close to 100% stable (server HW run stock speed for a reason). As for... Sugi always get the best binned parts... This is what we have good friends for (help from the right people). You can't expect the same if you aren't in the good company/have the right friends. No one win the HW lottery time out and time in for MB, CPU's, Mem sticks and GPU's without having the correct connections. And this repeat one, two or 3 times each year (always a HW lottery winner on day one after every new releases). If this was true everynoe could play the money lottery over and over and win every single time. Not how the world works out. You got less of everything vs Z690 Apex boards. The box is almost empty. They needed fix the MEM problems from Z690 anyway. So this is not an real improvement over older Apex board for 1700 gen. They was forced to make better mem traces/better PCB. Even the cheapo wifi-7 antenna can't keep up hanging up on the backside of the chassis because Asus used worse, cheaper and smaller magnets. And where is the sata cables. And no more temp sensor cables even if they brag about temp sensor terminals on the board. Asus went cheapo on everything. And no more Oscilloscope. The main bragging point for 1700 Strix (Apex) boards. Again only to cut costs. Some may not miss the real manual, but I prefer have a real manual book instead of have to go on the web see it. If they should remove something to save the climate... Maybe start to get rid of all the plastic bags/plastic cover first. Damn stupids! I also hate the stupidity with onboard gen_5 M2 slot above the GPU. Why implement this on a OC board? Forced by Intel? Not so sure about that. Why not offer the same old PCIe 5.0 box for the M.2 drive as for first gen Apex 1700 boards? Those that want gen 5 drives could use that black PCIe box instead of Asus infecting this board with an useless feature.

Remember the elite (the chosen ones - in house testers), use and have full access to binned boards, sticks and Cpu to make XMP profiles/claims how good their products is (motherboards). Of course you get better results with binned boards as the elite even if your Cpu/sticks isn't the top bin. The stupid in this.... The variable quality in their products as MB's will make an hit or miss to the paying cosumers. They can't expect similar if they don't have or paid for similar products. And none of the elite (the choosen ones) will admit that you got screwed by their own "prefered" company. They can't afford being thrown righ out from the company. Sad truth... You often don't get what you paid for. High end being often treatened as cheapo junk.

Even if I can clean up the remaining traces of Asus cancer afterwards, I don't allow me to download and install it to grab the free Aida64. No in hell I would support trash/forced to install software to get what I paid for... More and more trash is spewed out from the tech world.... Asus ain't the only one to create trash for profits. Same can be seen below. ERYING already offers a Core i7-13620H based motherboard with 6 P-Cores and 4 ECores mobile CPUs. These boards are referred to as “MoDT”, which stands for Mobile On Desktop. This is a new form factor that only gotten more popular with the increase in cores and efficiency of mobile series. ERYING launches desktop Mini-ITX motherboards with 14-core i9-13900H CPU and DDR5-5600 memory support Edit. The Sunday's word has to be trash. Even a weak powered 4070Ti Strix is all too much for CM 12VHPWR adapters... Damaged 90° connector / gpu

I flashed the new bios once I got the board. Both newer Apex boards is good (White and black). A lot better than the Z690 Apex who capped out at 7200. The best part with the Encore is the black color. I put 8000 for my small 2x16GB 7200 sticks. It seems it works quite ok’ish because it works very well in Y-cruncher. Now above 425W with this power virus🙄 Oh'weel, haven't time fiddle much with the ram. Have no time for that now. But I use 1.40 IVR TX, 1.431V IMC and Auto for the SA. The sticks run at 1.46 with 262xxx tREFI. Mind you, I use only a fan to cool the memory sticks. No WB for the sticks so not the best cooling for higher voltage and clocks. I will test out more when I have more time.... https://hwbot.org/submission/5390752_papusan_y_cruncher___pi_1b_core_i9_14900k_14sec_979ms

Imagine you buy the card then test it. A couple of days later it fails or it fails first time you put it in your pc. You are on the mercy on help from the seller. And the sell also don't got an warrranty so you two need to fix a deal to reduce costs/loss. Who will fully pay for the problems forwards? Or right after you got it? And what if the HW works ok the first two weeks then you run into problems? $3800 USD is still a lot money even if you got unnecessary hardware you didn't need inluded in the deal. Not all deals is as good as you think. But all can be lucky. Or the opposite. This is normally not a problem for me... I often buy a lot used old stuff but very cheap so the loss won't be huge. I can easly live with a loss of 30-80$ on used items. But ++2.5K$ down the drain would be much harder to swallow.

There is no point check Galax warranty. He said there is no warranty because he got it from China so just use it as is. And if I want buy used parts I don't buy not needed parts I need to sell back in the used market to grab back my money.

$3800 USD ? That's more expensive than the 4090 Matrix in limited samples🥴 Yep, a good bin but sub $1000 more than MSRP in many regions. Pay to play, LOOL From the link... P.S. Anyone wondering, there's virtually a highly scarce and non existent market in this country for enthusiast hardware hence the price. So if you buy from certain countries you should pay huge premium for used items? Hmmm.

Thanks..... And here we go brother Fox. The cancer compadres do it big in latest Steam Survey, LOOOL Latest Steam survey sees AMD and Windows 11 crash as a new top language appears techspot.com One of the biggest (but not the biggest) changes last month was in the operating system section. Almost 40% of participants preferred Windows 11 in August's survey, but Microsoft's latest OS fell 1.79% a month later and has now crashed by a massive 6.9%. Windows 10, meanwhile, is up 7.61% for an overall total share of 65%. It seems the Redmond company's quest to get everyone onto Windows 11 needs an extra push. Edit. Yup, 4x8pins would be fantastic.... But Nvidia and their board partners don't like increased costs. Thanks for the heads-up 🙂 No new driver that can fix this? https://videocardz.com/driver/intel-arc-iris-graphics-31-0-101-4952 Fine wine???? Yep, it works that way if the release drivers was bad.
