Ended up getting an order for a Gigabye 3070 on Amazon just now. It's not going to arrive until Nov 22.-23 (if at all) but I'm going to keep holding out for a 3080. Might cancel this one before then either way but hey at least I was finally able to add one to my cart on Amazon.

Yeah, that 3080 that went up a few minutes ago was instantly in "won't even go in the cart" territory. And now it's gone.

What's annoying was I did the spam add to cart trick for the 3070 and it worked on like the 8th try. No dice on the 3080 one

I never understand why they call it “premium gaming machine” when its usually pegged at “absolute max possible without exotic cooling”. edit: vvv yeah I meant below ambient hobbesmaster fucked around with this message at 21:37 on Nov 1, 2020 |

So I've been having some issues lately with my GPU, namely while gaming. At random intervals, my game will suddenly lock up, but sound will continue to register. It's been going on for a while now, but only in games I have windowless fullscreen on. I first had it happen on Monster Hunter World, now it's happening in Control and Deep Rock Galactic. Framerate otherwise seems to be holding steady at 60 FPS (v-sync). Eve Online, of all games, seems to have no problems, but that's in bordered mode. It's a RTX 2070 (non-super), for what it's worth, latest drivers (unless they updated them within the last week or so). The odd thing is the issues seemed to start after a driver update a while ago, at least with MHW they did.

Really dumb question, but do you have Logitech G-Hub installed? It used to do the exact same thing with my videocard until I stopped it from launching at startup. Does the screen black out too? Otherwise, I have no idea

Sounds like a crash you get when overclocking too hard. Is it a pre OC card?

Don't get the black screen though, but I'll try that first. spunkshui posted:Sounds like a crash you get when overclocking too hard. Yes, but I haven't fiddled with the settings at all. Clocks and everything are still box stock, including the pre-OC.

same positioning of the meter, next to the "noisy" Gigabyte card   those are identical enough that I am not at all confident I am isolating the sound of the card; this is likely just the ambient sound of all component fans, and swapping cards didn't move the needle. I stuck my abnormally hateful of high pitched noises ears next to the card under load and I don't hear anything, but I haven't yet done a good recording under spectrum analysis. Though, again, localizing things to the VC specifically is hard in a civilian setting even with decent equipment.

My friends, I have gained access to a missing shipment of 3080s and 3070s. Hundreds and hundreds of cards. They are beautiful cards but I have a problem: I only have one computer. Please post the street you lived on as a child, your first pet’s name , the name of your favorite teacher, and the town where your parents met. Greatness awaits. I don’t offer this to just anyone.

Based on how it's going I should get mine next week but unless the supply per brand gets up over 100 a week I don't think the people in position 800+ are getting their cards by christmas.

What has everyone been able to achieve with 3080 undervolting? 1875MHz @ 850mV seems to be my sweet spot, only a 4-5% performance delta from max stable OC but far less coil whine, far less fan noise, and temps (FE model) stabilize at ~75-78C during 100% game load rather than ~82C. I'm interested to see the diversity out there - are there people hitting the same high 1800s with even lower voltages, or are people finding that a tiny bit more voltage unlocks a ton more frequency, etc...

DLSS2 isn't a home run - there's some noticeable artifacting with Watch Dogs: Legion - specifically the sky (clouds) gets blurrier. Nvidia keeping game developers with DLSS implementations on such a tight leash suggests that the current setup isn't perfect and/or requires per-game tweaks - not talking about training the NN.

shrike82 posted:DLSS2 isn't a home run - there's some noticeable artifacting with Watch Dogs: Legion - specifically the sky (clouds) gets blurrier. I'd guess that's because the clouds are rendered in the transparency pass, and therefore don't have motion vectors associated with them. That's the achilles heel of all reconstruction techniques really, it's only practical to store a single motion vector per pixel so only the opaque objects get them, and any transparent objects in front get mangled somewhat. Happens with TAA too but it's not as obvious with a less aggressive reconstruction. Could be avoided by only upscaling the opaque pass then rendering transparencies at full resolution on top but then you're giving up some of the performance win.

Help me, thread. Since I installed my MSI 3090 I’ve been getting occasional blue screens attributed to gdrv2.sys while playing games. It has happened in both Death Stranding and Watch Dogs: Legion. I didn’t play those games while still on my 1080, but there shouldn’t be anything a game can do that crashes the kernel anyway. The internet often attributes this to some Gigabyte software, which I do not believe I am running, since I don’t have a Gigabyte card. Does anyone have any tips on figuring out what’s going on and making it stop?

Do you have a gigabyte motherboard? Could be the gigabyte app center or their RGB software.

Coming from a 1080, and jumping into Control without having played it at all -- I think DLSS makes the framerate pop and also does something not negative to the visual texture of the game which is much harder to quantify than the impact of turning raytrace on or off, which is both much more obvious and dramatic in places you see it (mostly involving glass surfaces or water) and as I'd expect does not much in places where the lighting isn't... interesting. DLSS is a little strange but I'd say I find it generally preferable to not.

I agree with you that DLSS in Control looks different from native, in a way that isn't necessarily better or worse. I find it a bit over-sharpened. That said, given different but roughly equal visual quality, I'm always taking the option with better performance. Not every DLSS implementation looks the same, though. The anti-aliasing in Death Stranding with DLSS set to quality is far, far better than the TAA implementation at native resolution. It is so much looks so much better than native that I'd use it even if it had a performance hit instead of also giving you a performance increase. When you are just running around in the environment, without all the post-processing like in the cutscenes, it is possibly the cleanest looking image I've seen. pyrotek fucked around with this message at 03:36 on Nov 2, 2020 |

I installed DS after getting my 3080 and it made me text my friend saying “this is the maybe the prettiest thing I’ve ever seen on a screen.” Doesn’t hurt that the soundtrack is my poo poo.
