That’s my excuse, I’m going all black on my current build. I don’t even want a HOF pfft.Final piece of the puzzle for my white build
Lolol sure sureThat’s my excuse, I’m going all black on my current build. I don’t even want a HOF pfft.
Agree, had Galax cards in the past with RMA issues, have not had a Palit card (still have a Palit GTS250) issue yet (owned about 4 now). If you have confidence in the longevity of your product, then reflect it to the customer in your warranty. I Shall never buy a new card with only 2 years warranty (even if I plan to upgrade before then). XFX falls in the same boat ofc, so yeah FO Galax and XFX with your shitty 2 yearsMy 2c: Nice looking card, but I would rather have a 3 year warranty with a cheaper Palit card. I look at my screen 99% of the time and not inside my case.
Spray paint is also an option 😅That’s my excuse, I’m going all black on my current build. I don’t even want a HOF pfft.

This is fair tbh. However, don’t you currently own a HOF?Agree, had Galax cards in the past with RMA issues, have not had a Palit card (still have a Palit GTS250) issue yet (owned about 4 now).

I’m not sure if I’d have it in me to void warranty on a R26k part XD.Spray paint is also an option 😅

Odd. Galax is a subsidiary of Palit. Strange that you had these differing experiences since both brands are from the same company.Agree, had Galax cards in the past with RMA issues, have not had a Palit card (still have a Palit GTS250) issue yet (owned about 4 now).

no, the Palit 3080ti ocThis is fair tbh. However, don’t you currently own a HOF?
Then I shall stick with Palit. Costs less and more warranty. I load the BIOS I want and beat out most of these "high performance" cards.Odd. Galax is a subsidiary of Palit. Strange that you had these differing experiences since both brands are from the same company.

I need to flash the OC BIOS tbh. 400W is choking my card.Then I shall stick with Palit. Costs less and more warranty. I load the BIOS I want and beat out most of these "high performance" cards.
Wait, which card do you have?Must be nice, here I am nursing my 380...🤣
As per the signature a R9 380Wait, which card do you have?
Ohhh I thought you maybe meant you had a 380W issue like many others had haha. I’m not actually on desktop right now.As per the signature a R9 380
Ah, no worries. Can see where the confusion comes in. These HOF cards are amazing. Even just as pieces of art.Ohhh I thought you maybe meant you had a 380W issue like many others had haha. I’m not actually on desktop right now.
Tata and Jaguar. Lamborghini and VW. You just can’t compare them.Odd. Galax is a subsidiary of Palit. Strange that you had these differing experiences since both brands are from the same company.
So the Galax is Lamborghini - fast but unreliable? And Palit is Tata - slow and not very appealing but lasts longer?Tata and Jaguar. Lamborghini and VW. You just can’t compare them.
Holy moly.So the Galax is Lamborghini - fast but unreliable? And Palit is Tata - slow and not very appealing but lasts longer?
They only card I ever had die on me was a 25 month old Sapphire HD7870 GHz Edition with a 24 month warranty. An extra year would have been great! HahaMy 2c: Nice looking card, but I would rather have a 3 year warranty with a cheaper Palit card. I look at my screen 99% of the time and not inside my case.
But 40-series and RDNA 3 launch next year November 🤷♂️.They only card I ever had die on me was a 25 month old Sapphire HD7870 GHz Edition with a 24 month warranty. An extra year would have been great! Haha
Still boggles the mind how much power these cards can draw these days! Diminishing returns comes to mind. Are you running at 4k? Will probably need to wait for RDNA5 for an efficient 4K card....
May as well game with the slider maxed to 450W because if the current load isn’t high enough, the card won’t draw it regardless. If the load is high, then you’ll be able to maintain 2070-2160MHz even in the most demanding of gaming and benchmark scenarios, with a 450W-500W VBIOS. Basically nothing to worry about. In terms of benchmarks, 450W-500W is actually necessary to be competitive in Port Royal.
