    NVIDIA GeForce Game Ready Driver 417.71 WHQL Has Been Released

    Samsung CF791 34" |3440x1440 / RTX 2080ti. How the heck do I enable the setting in the control panel? I've enabled Freesync on the monitor's side but cannot get the driver to activate it. I set the monitor to enable Freesync. I enabled the setting in the nvidia control panel. I'll be darned...

    RTX 2080 Ti FE Escapes Testing by Dying After 8 Hours @ [H]

    Nope. Well, I don't believe they do. The EVGA 2080ti XC was the first of 2 2080ti's that died on me.....on my 3rd FE right now and so far so good for about 2 weeks

    Exactly why i RMA'd the exact same card. Mine ran hotter than a furnace and smelled of burning electronics.

    Do YOU have Problems with YOUR RTX card?

    I had one EVGA 2080ti OC Edition die on me. I sent that back for refund. I then bought a 2080ti FE from Nvidia.com thinking that would be a safe bet....I didn't read all the forums on Nvidia.com or here before placing the order or I wouldn't have. The card arrived super quick too. This card...

    Nvidia RTX 2080 Ti graphics cards are dying on a lot of users

    The card I returned was the EVGA 2080ti variant. Thing ran super hot and I began seeing early signs of death....IE stuttering, flickering, etc so I just did a standard no questions asked return. I'm waiting still for a week now for the actual refund to appear.... I'm on week 1 of my new FE...

    Nvidia RTX 2080 Ti graphics cards are dying on a lot of users

    Saw this on another forum. The left side is the stock 2080ti FE, the right side is an MSI 2080ti. The voltage regs are snuggled up against the memory chips on the stock FE. MSI moved them away. The micron chips will self destruct past 90c apparently. This *could* be what we're witnessing...

    Nvidia RTX 2080 Ti graphics cards are dying on a lot of users

    EVGA RTX 2080ti OC Edition headed back this morning. Running super hot, 83-90c on 100% FANS. Lot's of stuttering almost like a throttling on/off on/off kind of feeling. My case is very well ventilated. My prior 1080FE ran for years at max of 76c. I'm starting to see weird pixelated shadows...
