So I've experienced two issues so far.
1) Black screen on boot- I was unable to boot using an hdmi 2.1 cable or port. At one stage i thought the gpu didnt have enought power, but then I tried different cables / settings on port. Switching to DP cable worked.

2) Space issues with case. Had to remove my one radiator fan to make space. It pretty much runs down all the way to the front of the case. Front mounted fans should be fine.

Thanks. I'll go watch that video then. Do you know if it's related to hdmi?
 
Nice to see its finally here. A few more spec details related to post would be helpful - what case you are using? Vertically mounted? Oh and can it play solitaire?

When did they release the 40XX?

I didn't have the black screen issue, but I did have trouble picking up my second monitor over HDMI at first - Then it resolved itself and hasn't come back. - Lucky my case had space for it, did your card come with an anti-sag bracket?

Yes, and a bag of chips. The chips I ate, but don't know what to do with the anti-sag bracket.
 
Apparently they are supposed to come with a kickstand and shoulder straps. If yours didn't come with that you'll have to send it back for RMA. xD
Ok now I know what that was lol. Not sure if I should use this or not, card seems to be straight and hanging in there.
 
a similar black screen issue happens on my 3080 Ti when booting from HDMI 2.1 too, but I can see the post/bios and windows loading screen, then when I'm in windows it goes blank, then I must switch from HDMI 1 to 2 and back to get the screen on.

So to circumvent this I startup the pc and only switch on my tv/monitor after 10 seconds which is enough time to boot into windows.

Hectic, Will give this a try. Will be interesting to see if it works. Thanks.
