someone mentioned on one of the streams i been watching that amazon fixed the issue.
Also the issue was affecting a lot more GPUs than just EVGA3090, seems like bunch of AMD cards been affected too, possibly evga again
Please beware, New World MMO beta can cause permanent damage to GPU

gotta enable global FPS cap via RivaTuner
especially if you use gsync or freesync, having max fps 3-5 fps below max refresh rate is good, as it forces those technologies to be always on and have all the benefits.

if you got 3090 EVGA, definitely do that, from my understanding that was the main cause of the issue, bad safety features on the card and unlimited fps in loading.

Me trying my games one by one since the 3080Ti FE went in (with the Corsair 12-pin GPU cable).

well it depends how that cable is made. If it is designed to handle 300W of power, all is good. If that cable is designed for 150W and it is literally daisy chained 2x6 pins at the end, you risk a melt of those cables. This is why it is not advised to ever daisy chain power cables, but use one cable per plug

That was the one I meant to include above ... doh!
It’s a well designed bit of kit, Corsair don’t mess around when it comes to that kind of thing.

You mean I didn't have to spend an hour undoing all those cable ties, removing the HDD & cage to get to the back of the PSU!!!!!!!!!!!

well as long as it is designed to handle 300W as two 150W cables combined, no problem there

So, as the FE 3080Ti can draw up to 350w (without OC) then I was correct to buy the 2xPCIe to 12-pin cable then!well as long as it is designed to handle 300W as two 150W cables combined, no problem there
Got something right, at last

the PCIe slot itself can provide somewhere around 75-100W of power, the corsair kit cable that was linked here is supposed to handle 300W, so it is really all you needSo, as the FE 3080Ti can draw up to 350w (without OC) then I was correct to buy the 2xPCIe to 12-pin cable then!

good on them, they know they screwed up. Would not be surprised if there was a market recall on those cards to be fair. It is some fatal flaw in design.EVGA have confirmed they’ll swap any affected 3090s no questions asked:

EVGA have not had the best run of it in recent times, the 1000 series were missing thermal pads and overheated leading to throttling and failure.
Now this.
Not good.

Just got my new 3090 build a couple of days ago and now i'm reading about this; its not good for my heart!
Seriously though, what stuff can I do to try and make a bricking as unlikely as possible?
I mean, i'm not touching new world with a bargepole but Anno 1800 is my bag.
Is putting Vsync on in games enough? Should I go into geforce control panel and find the max frames setting instead? Do both?
Can someone calm an old man down?
