mcbexx posted:Is there a valid reason my GTX 970 clocks down from 3500 Mhz to 3000 Mhz when I start recording something with NVENC in OBS? Market segmentation, they want you to buy a Quadro if you want full clock speeds. It also lowers the GPU to the P2 state, but that's less noticeable because P2 still clocks up based on temperatures so it'll get to the same speed.

Ulio posted:Noob question. Can you nvlink two different versions of the same card? Like EVGA 2080 ti with a Asus 2080ti? It'll work if you connect them, sure. The problem is more in affixing the bridge in the first place. Different manufacturers and card types will use different PCB heights and link placements, and NVLink bridges are rigid. You are not guaranteed to be physically able to connect the cards.

B-Mac posted:Do you have another GPU you can swap in and see if the issues persists? Likewise can you try the GPU in a different pc? Perhaps the motherboard is crapping out and your GPU is a okay. So just an update here: my computer abruptly shutdown and refused to boot with the 980Ti connected to the PSU +6/2 power cables. Disconnecting the GPU from power permitted the PC to boot, and the GPU displayed a "please connect the PCI-E power to this card" message. I tried swapping out the power supply cables which didn't work. Right now I'm on integrated graphics (thank goodness!) and plan on taking the GPU over to my brother's, but it's gotta be dead, huh? It's bizarre; I've tried it with two equivalent Seasonic PSUs and no dice. On that note, I'm looking down the barrel of buying a 2080. Normally I buy EVGA, but I'm really not liking the design choices they've settled on, aesthetically speaking. Is there anything objectively wrong with buying a Founder's Edition? I'd also consider a 2080Ti but the reports of failures has me worried.

Sorry. I'll certainly not make judgements or recommendations based on it. I just found it unusually messed up - I wonder if there's a good technical explanation for it?

Here's my technical explanation: I once ran the FFXV benchmark and during the Shiva section the dude is supposed to start shivering, but instead he folded in on himself and then exploded into a polygonal mess until Shiva caressed him and he was fixed.

So let's say I buy a used 1070 ti on ebay. How can I tell if it was overclocked? Is there some setting in nvidia's graphics control program or will I need a third party program to check it?

Are you trying to ask how to tell if its been abused? Overclocking on a 10xx isnt abuse and it wouldnt cause damage in all but the most extreme case. The bios are locked down and it would thermal throttle well before any damage can occur. If you want to test it for stability run some synthetics or benching tools like heaven and watch for artifacting at stock settings. Then play the actual games that you intend to play at the setting you intend to use. If it crashes or artifacts return it as not working.

There's no way to tell, even Nvidia's internal tools don't have an overclocking reporter. Overclocking is very safe though, if it works now it's likely to work for another 5 years.

Those deals sold out super fast! i would bid on the higher end models like Gigabyte Aorus, Asus Strix, MSI Duke or gaming with the red and black shroud, and EVGA FTW3. They dont cost any more on the used market and are significantly more robustly built in terms of thermals and power delivery and thusly more protected from neglect. Ones to avoid are basically any 3rd party blower which if you need that style you want the founders edition, brand doesnt matter https://www.myibidder.com/ is my tool of choice for sniping ebay auctions last second.

If you bought an EVGA GPU through Newegg's eBay store - be sure to ask Newegg for an emailed invoice. You might not be able to finagle a free copy of BF V out of them, but I now have an invoice for an $899.99 2080 FTW3 Ultra, so even though I paid $799.99, if I decide to ~Step Up~ to the 2080Ti Black Edition in three months' time, I'll only be paying $100 instead of $200.

I didn't read/watch the details on the 2080ti fiasco with its bad PCB issues--was it fixable with software settings or can we expect to see a board revision of some sort in say perhaps a Titan Xt? Or to rephrase because it's Nvidia: will the 2080ti just be left the way it is and have that justify the price premium of the future Titan above it?

On that note, given my 980ti gave up the ghost I’m considering buying the cheapest EVGA 2080 and sign up for the 2080ti black step up. I’m sure it will be months until I come up in the queue, but in the meantime the 2080 will serve me fine. edit: It looks like the more expensive one is in stock on EVGA's website. It looks like the only difference is a slightly higher clock? Anti-Hero fucked around with this message at 04:12 on Nov 27, 2018 |

I'm going to take my time and potentially Step Up to the Black Edition Ti in a few months' time simply because I'd imagine by then they'll have gone through at least one revision and maybe the preliminary issues will have been worked out. I'd also imagine there'll be a good lead time between applying and the card becoming available, as well.
