True. I guess listening to strangers on the internet is always a bad idea :D that's why I thought I'd ask you trustworthy fellows. Suppose ultimately I wanted reassurance - nobody likes to read the word 'fire' and 'computer' in the same sentence. Thanks chums!

It lasted about 4 hours before it started to show issues, so definitely don't blame them (they're certainly not testing each build for 4 hours ahead of time). They ran it overnight to test the RMA though. Was a Gigabyte card, has been replaced by Zotac. Not sure how I feel xD

Hi all, Quick question. I received a Gigabyte 3070 that got RMA'd due to graphical glitches and artifacting, was replaced by a Zotac. Quick google search essentially comes back with "Gigabyte is the best, Zotac likely to catch fire and destroy your rig." Do I have any say in this or is it...

Got RMA =( graphics card failed after 4 hours of use. They shipped me a new one but the old graphics card was jammed in the locking catch so the whole PC went back to them. I think this was even worse after 33 production days than just letting that timer continue to go up xD

Wait what's there's wifi antenna? ;)

Plugged it in the motherboard like an absolute dingus. Cheers matey! Owe you a beer. This is why I don't build my own xD

Will do - also using displayport with a Samsung G5

Hi all, Knew this would happen - got through the 33 working day wait to have it not start on boot. 1 longer beep followed by 3 short, nothing comes up on display. Fans etc all start up. Google says graphical. Wanted to ask for advice here before poking around. A thread on hte 2nd page says it's...

Well chums I'm out of here. Swapped to the 3070 on the weekend and just got this through: I'm not sure if I'm gutted or not to not get the 3060Ti as it sounds an amazing card. My elation has turned into "what if it comes and the power cable is missing? what if it won't turn on?" Good luck...

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

@DylBee AWHHH I'M SO JEALOUS. I'M HOURS BEHIND YOU GUYS. C'MON PCS-DEITY-WHATEVER-YOUR-NAME-IS They're gonna owe me a new F5 key.

Doesn't look like it @dr_wanqenstein =( think the cards are already assigned out.

I've made the swap. It looks like they just had a huge batch through though and they've now all been assigned. Guess it depends which card has a stock intake next.

Hey all, It looks like a bunch of us have jumped ship from the 3060 Ti to here. News reached us of you guys on ~10 working days receiving orders and our jealousy hit overdrive. Currently 32 working days in queue :)

Do keep in mind though a lot of us have been waiting 30-35 working days+ for those cards. So if you do go ahead be prepared to settle in for the long war.
