NVIDIA Responds to Melting Cables, Warranty Concerns, & 12VHPWR Adapter Failures

Took them long enough... Nvidia basically says it's user error and they will RMA all of them. There's about 50 cases globally that have melted.  So 0.04% failure rate. Nvidia has sold 125,000 4090s according to board partners which is insane considering the cost of the card. Nvidia also said they will RMA cards that have this issue with third party cables as well.

Grabbing DragonFlight tomorrow, because I want those event items that will vanish when the expac fully launches, but I also wanna make that Dracthyr before launch to get to know the class/race better (plus I just wanna fly around Azeroth like it's Spyro).

Well, it was about time they said something!

Thankfully, the owners will get their cards replaced. but it's not like Nvidia could do something else.

This game looks so dang good. Assuming reviews are good, day 1

I'm not the only one to notice the influence of Dead Space, right?

Yea it's made by Dead Space devs since EA nuked the studio cause EA

Ah! That certainly explains a lot.

Not really PC gaming but I bought a refurb desktop to use as my future plex server.

A old PC I had gotten from work has shit specs and piss poor storage lol - so decided to get this.


In the future, once I get a new gaming desktop, my current gaming desktop will become my general PC and my general PC will become my plex server after that.

Nobody Wants NVIDIA’s $1199 US GeForce RTX 4080: Despite Lower Shipments, Retailers & Stores Are Stocked With Cards

Good good. Fuck that disgraceful price point from Nvidia

Ooh nice. Finally smaller OLED monitors. Bit pricey for a 27" 1440P but considering its an OLED, and at 240hz.. thats got to be amazing for competitive gaming. The motion on that has to look buttery smooth.

Also managed to snag a ridiculous bargain from Amazon. There were 1TB WD SN850X going for £14 each! So I naturally ordered 4. And they actually came lol. Usually have terrible luck at getting mispriced stuff.

Anyone else get anything this decent (tech wise) this Black Friday?
