Wonder if that rumored 16pin PCIe 5.0 power connector spec means the 12 pin Nvidia plug is already a goner for Lovelace?

Might as well just give us a separate outlet plug and cable so we can plug the video card directly into our UPS/wall already. :P

I want the 3090ti to fly out of left field and include a PCIe 16x 5.0 slot to coincide with Alder Lake. That'd be an interesting comparison.

Other rumours I'm seeing are a new PCB with 2Gb GDDR6X which allows single sided memory, and no NVLINK so rip memory pooling for large datasets and the sick extra SLI frames in Sniper Zombie Army (or whatever).

The PSU came bundled with it which is nice since I needed a new one for the GPU anyway. I read it's a quality one, too.

Nvidia GTC is November 8-11 and has a Jensen keynote on 11/9. Wouldnt surprise me to hear them announce products that formally support PCIe 5 / CXL. GTC is normally not consumer focused, but maybe a 3090 Ti/Plus/Titan card with PCIe 5 support fits the bill enough for the pro focus.

And that year, for his birthday, he got six pink ping pong balls in a little pink backpack.
In a Win10 config with an 11GB GTX 1080 Ti and an 8GB RTX 3070, is there a way to flag the 1080 as a CUDA-only card? I want to bring it online for machine learning and extra oomph for BOINC, but don't want it to engage for anything graphical.

For my science fiction dreams, I always hoped I’d live long enough to see an actual net energy output nuclear fusion reactor. Human ingenuity over long-enough time scales seems almost able to do what earlier SotA said was impossible.

Now I want a household nuclear reactor just to run my Goddamn RTX/N 5080ti.

I meant to ask when you previously posted it, but if someone checks the Best Buy app, and sees a card "In stock", but it says "Sold out" beneath the card, does that mean it's probably at that specific store, or that it is/was at the store, but someone already reserved/bought it?

So I went into a Best Buy that had a 3070 evga listed. By the time I get to asking it’s me and another guy from discord and they take their sweet time looking in the back. He comes back with an asus tuf 3070 ti

Oh ok. I thought maybe there was a downside to the ti versions, like slower or less memory or something.

Re:newegg shuffle - is the trick signing up exactly at 8/11am? I was only selected once, which happened to be the first time I tried and happened to do it at like 8:05. Too bad it was a garbage selection that day.

I bought the Samsung 49" ultrawide monitor and if I hookup my work laptop through it's dock using HDMI it's fine, but the max resolution it shows is 3840x2160, but doesn't have 3840x1080, which is the correct 32x9 aspect ratio.



If I hook it up via DisplayPort it seems to have 3840x1080 as a resolution but the signal looks like this and doesn't even fit the signal on the panel.



I've tried a few display port cables, including the one the monitor came with to no avail.

The monitor is natively 5120x1440 but it looks like the Intel UHD 620 chip of my laptop doesn't support a resolution that large.

None of this is an issue on my personal desktop. It just works fine.

Any idea what could be causing the display port issue?

Apparently if you get a USB-C to DP adapter/cable it might work:

Thanks, I just ordered one. Maybe it'll be a solution.

I still don't understand why normal displayport resolutions won't work. Even 640x480 has that weird garbling.

this is more of a monitor thread question (I know it's mostly the same set of people though) but basically if this is the Samsung G9 Neo it's known to be broken as gently caress and Samsung is supposedly working on a firmware update, HUB tested a beta release and said it fixed a lot but not all of the issues.

even if it's not that one, I'd be perfectly willing to believe the same issues might affect other Samsung monitors too, I'm sure there's some degree of hardware similarity and code sharing/etc.

changing which input port it's using might help, as others are suggesting. Unplugging and replugging might too, maybe? And dropping the refresh rate might help.

My old X34p ran 3440x1440 on my skylake laptop's HDMI port without problems, but the newer X34GS (gsync compatible, vs native gsync on the x34p) wouldn't run at the same resolution (it saw it as 2560x1080 max) and since it's a work laptop I didn't feel like getting into EDID spoofing and stuff. I solved this by getting work to get me a dock, it does run properly off the dock's displayport outputs, I assume it would also run properly off a thunderbolt usb-c to displayport cable, or a usb-c to usb-c cable (if your monitor has a type-c input) as those can carry up to DP1.4 (for a thunderbolt 3 port). Basically the displayport is just a better output on old skylake laptops, and a dock may help since it often gives you "active adapters" built in. Personally I found the dell thunderbolt dock has glitches on its hdmi 2.0b controller though, it would occasionally glitch out just like you're seeing (although I don't think it's related here) after switching monitor inputs to the laptop, and you'd have to unplug and replug, which is why I started exploring displayport and type-c displayport solutions.

As far as cables, I would buy something that's bidirectional (usb-c cables are "active" in a sense and do have directionality unless they explicitly specify bidirectional) it just makes things a lot simpler from your perspective. These were the cables I came up with at the time - note that as usual, "3 feet" means 2 feet 6 inches and you'll be stretching it out at that. I am using the displayport to Type-c on my monitor's type-c input (although of course there's no guarantee that one works for you either - the G9 Neo is really just broken at the moment) since my other 2 displayport inputs are already used.

It's the SAMSUNG LC49RG90SSNXZA 49-Inch CRG9 (rolls right off the tongue), but as you said I bet they all share the same firmware more or less.

My girlfriend has a thunderbolt dock so I'm going to be trying my laptop with her dock after she's done working. I used to have an LG 3440x1440 monitor and it had no issues with anything until it died. I'll find the monitor thread and post there.

It feels more like a lovely Intel GPU issue than a monitor issue to me but it probably just boils down to Samsung not thinking someone is going to plug in a crappy work laptop into their fancy gaming monitor and vice versa, and not designing around that possibility.

E: my firmware is 1000.1 which is quite out of date so maybe that'll fix it

The firmware that fixes its HDR related issues is live: https://www.samsung.com/us/support/downloads/?model=N0054074&modelCode=LS49AG952NNXZA

If you just bought the monitor, it probably didn't ship with this firmware so definitely install it. If you have the regular G9, then get this instead: https://www.samsung.com/us/support/downloads/?model=N0054447

I've heard switching inputs can take an annoyingly long time on the Odyssey monitors (even the regular 16:9 G7), but I this specific problem is not one that I've heard about so I'm not sure if it's the monitor's fault per se.

edit: CRG9 is different from those two and requires its own firmware.

Just to provide closure on my monitor/GPU issue. The firmware I had was actually the most up to date so that wasn't the issue. It looks like the problem is the HP made laptop dock. When I use a Dell Thunderbolt dock my girlfriend uses everything works perfectly at 5120x1440 at 59hz.
