  • EVGA actually made a 4090 before breaking away from NVIDIA's tyrannical rule... and this would have been one of the most awesome 4090s ever.

      It seems like it would have been the opposite, less 🔥than any of the actual 4090s because it has the power connector on the end so the cable doesn't need to be bent as much. (Thus literally less fire because it would be less likely to fail)

What's really saddening for me, is that they were so advanced with the card, they basically developed working samples, being inches away from mass production, when they pulled the plug. I'm fairly certain that they had working models, for the RTX 4080 as well, both variants. Probably, even for lower end models. What's even more sad, in my opinion is that such an enthusiast and a professional, like Vince "Kingpin" Lucido, whose work, experience and knowledge in the field is extremely important, is not a part of it anymore.

      I'd love it if EVGA were still making video cards, but I don't see it happening again. I mean, just think about the reason they stopped. If they weren't making a viable profit margin on Nvidia cards, which are priced higher (and sell in larger quantities), then what makes you think that they'd make enough of a profit margin on AMD cards, which are priced lower (and sell in lower quantities)?
      As long as their other products continue to sell as well as before, then I can't see them needing to get back into video cards. But, if their other products start to do worse, then they might need to get back into video cards as a form of marketing exposure to get more people thinking about their brand.

      EVGA also makes errors ! i have the rtx2060 KO and yesterday the memory gets up to 104C (Celsius not Fahrenheit!) in a normal 20C room and with the fans running on 95% speed( sounds like a jet turbine) because the thermal pad is about 2 cm (0,8 inch) thick ! this is clearly a design flaw !
      I've tried fixing it with copper plates but it won't work unless you custom make it. Now I'm waiting for an expensive high-end thermal pad, and i hope it will lower the temperature for 20C to around 80C (which is still very hot) ...surprised that it survived 2 years but I can't open it first if I don't want to void the warranty
      now with no warranty, the first thing I tried was to fix this problem 🤔
