    The 32 inch 4k IPS 144hz's...(Update - this party is started) (wait for it...)

    just upgraded finally from my aging 1080ti FE, to a 4090 FE still sporting this as my main display, Asus PG348Q starting to consider a new display. the GSYNC on this is 100mhz, I'm sure faster is better. I'm pretty happy with the 34" and very slight curve of this Asus do I need to drop down...

    **The state of GPU's and their purchasability** This is a rant post, anyone else agree with me AFTER you read this?

    I too, have given up trying, for the most part. I dont think there is a solution, either. as someone above mentioned, I can personally reset my timeline, to 6 months post launch.

    Nvidia Experience always exaggerates

    it's a relatively new build pc (1 year), open case, good air flow. possibly, the card itself may need reseating the cooling solution I guess.. (1080ti FE), but I think Pulsar is right, the blower wasn't a great solution. thanks for the responses folks. for now, Ill dial the setting in experience...

    Nvidia Experience always exaggerates

    the experience always says.. "ya, max it out! no sweat!" but whenever I even try it, it goes straight to thermal max. even simple stuff: these days, Im playing FFXIV on my Asus PG348Q (34" UW) 3440x1440 full screen, and there is a 1080p side mounted on hdmi, on my 1080ti. Last night, I tried...

    **buyers only** Were you able to secure a 3080?

    it was really, kind of disgusting, actually. like others I was on lots of sites, went from notify to sold out, instantly. and briefly, even the nvidia store was showing scammers links to $1500 for a 3080.

    NVIDIA Ampere Q&A

    so, my displays are Asus pg348q (3440 x 1440) and a peripheral 1080p side monitor. currently on a 1080ti. that has a struggled a bit running high settings, even wow, or ff14 given the claims of a 3070 beating a 2080ti, then a 3080 would be a significant ug for me then?
