    Just thought I should note that I know the OC button on the iGame is a BIOS switch (the card has a dual BIOS) and you have to reset for the BIOS switch to occur. Rather than joke around I should have been clearer in the review. After a reset the card loads with the same settings, at first I thought the button was broken but it looks like my early sample has the same normal BIOS for both profiles. Anyway, not a great card, should probably avoid.

      No, it's because the channel's original host, Matt, has been trapped in Steve's basement for years doing all of the benchmarks for him. The only thing that has kept Matt alive is his dream of eating one last Caramello Koala before he dies.

From what I resold the 3070 for I was able to buy the 3080 ti and the money I made mining is more than double the ~500 dollars it cost to step up from the 3080 ti to the 3090. Plus I paid 60 bucks to get EVGA’s extended warranty for 10 years of warranty on my 3080 ti. But that automatically gets applied to my 3090. 3090 might actually make use of that 10 year warranty as 24 gigs of vram is just not even close to whats needed in video games these days. Very excited. Oh and I can make more money mining since no hash rate limit on 3090 haha

    Nice Video as always.
    Can you check the mounting pressure of the Colorful IGAME? The cooling performance doesn't really line up with the weight of the cooler. I mean other coolers with similar weight and slightly different designs perform waaay better. Maybe you can borrow some shorter screws / standoffs from another cooler. Could be like the first 5700XTs from ASUS, which were later fixed and replaced with the EVO models.

      @@ultrademigod Not really because it's more expensive than 3070 by 15 - 20%. And that is not even accounting to the fact that the 6800 has to use S.A.M to be able to beat the 3070 for at least 15% to justify the price increase. And they never showed any benchmark with stock settings which is very fishy, and people shouldn't fall into the pit of the first party benchmarks that are cherry picked. This is pretty much the same case with Nvidia's RTX 3080 2x performance of RTX 2080 again.

    Monthly Q&A question. I'm using a monitor that has a resolution of 1920x1080 (Asus VG279Q). I have noticed during a benchmark that there is a note about not being able to run at the native resolution of 3840x2160 and there is a FPS penalty. However, the test will complete, and give an overall score. My question is, would using a 4k monitor with 3840x2160 "increase" the overall score at the end? Or does the benchmark already take into account the FPS penalty? (P.S. No, not looking to purchase a 4K monitor, this is just something that I have always wondered about) Keep up the awesome work Monitor Steve, and Mustache Tim

      But the 3070 is no that powerful though.
      It is basically a cheaper priced 2080ti
      while the new amd Rx 6000 series is better than the 2080ti and could hold up on its own against the 3080

      By the way the cooler looks on the iGame and the temps, I'd assume there's some problem with mounting. It really shouldn't have such bad temps with that cooler. I'm hoping Gamers Nexus takes a look at this and finds out where the problem lies.

      The cooler could also perform somewhat differently with a 3060, or it might be just a bad unit they got. If you're not sure, check some other reviews as well, for your exact card, preferrably. Product lines with serious problems are pretty rare, but research is always good.

    Looking to buy an evga 3070 ftw3 from my buddy for a real good price. Just checking reviews and I’m seeing great thermals just like my evga 2070 black. Sucks that evga no longer makes video cards. All of my evga cards have always clocked way higher speeds out of the box before manually overclocking. My 2070 hits over 2ghz overclocked.

    The EVGA looks good (regarding performance and thermals), but it seems to draw 30W more than the MSI and Asus for only 1-2 more FPS in Shadow of the Tomb Raider. While that speaks well for the cooling capability of the EVGA, the other cards have very good thermals themselves and if they are cheaper (like Steve mentioned) I feel like the Asus or MSI are better options all things considered.

    Over $100+ as compared to base MSRP is a common trait for all of the EVGA "ultra" OC cards on every tier of a series and although somewhat on the high side in price EVGA has been known for decades to have excellent customer service and warranty handling on their GPU cards at least here in the U.S.A.
    When you are dropping this type of coin for a video card is it not worth a few dollars of that entrance price to feel like if you do get unlucky and have a problem the warranty process will be handled quickly and be fairly painless?
    Some companies may be a bit cheaper but also some of them are not known for their stellar customer service either. Given a choice I would spend the few extra dollars for the peace of mind.
