Not only have Gigabyte set up an excellent distribution channel in the country, their efficient products combined with good after sales support have earned them a reputation. We thus picked up the Gigabyte GeForce 660 GTX Ti OC for this review. Availability of this card is superb across the country.
Explore the upcoming RTX 50 Series GPUs, including RTX 5090, 5080, and 5070 TI from ASUS, Gigabyte, MSI, Palit, and Zotac.
The New World graphics card wars continue. Players are now reporting that the Amazon Game Studios MMO is bricking their Gigabyte RTX 30 series cards.
It’s not like I can’t buy a PC but MMOs are time killers and I’m not a kid with 10 hours a day to play games . I did it back with EQ and nothing will ever compare to the difficulty of that game because casuals are chased now so I couldn’t care less about this PC game that melts graphic cards . I’m happy with my mediocre pc that played 3 games in past 5 years and my PS5 and Switch . Maybe someday I’ll buy a PC again . You know you mainly see PC players saying they have 3080/90 with 128GB ram etc etc etc .
I don't understand the initial comment - obviously there is a hue and cry about how hard it is to get a hold of new GPUs right now - nor any of the following consolve vs PC nonsense. Is this game really something worthy of causing headbutting between these crowds? It's pretty dumb in any scenario, but I'm extra confused here lol.
Well when every game goes to PC, you can’t help how console players may feel towards some of the PC gaming community and their toxicity that they bring with them, ruining some games. So some console gamers may be a bit defensive. Can’t blame them.
This is kind of ridiculous for a game to release in this state. Not even the worst of Chinese games bricks your graphics card. Amazon showing just how much they're amateurs
What are you even talking about. The game doesn't brick anything, the poor quality of the parts used by evga and giga are the problem. Do you think EVGA is replacing cards out of the kindness of their hearts?
And the Zotac, MSI, and Gigabyte cards dying from it as well? JayzTwoCents did a video about it showcasing it is NOT an EVGA problem.
I don't think so. I have been using EVGA for almpst 10 years and never even once had any issue out of them.
The News article you are commenting upon its about the game bricking your card, is not a Fake News in the sense that is everywhere right now, it could be false of course but it doesn't matter really, a lot of people won't get the game just in case.
You are treating phoenixwing like he just said the craziest thing ever and this is what the article is about...
There is supposed to be safe guards in place to prevent this from the GPU manufacturers, when this happened to EVGA cards they admitted it was there fault. https://www.pcgamer.com/evg...
The same thing could be true here.
I don't think it's the game's fault if the hardware breaks lol. Software shouldn't be capable of breaking hardware.
the problem is that software can break your hardware. Is that the case here? we will see. The fact that it's happening to numerous manufacturers 30 series seem to point toward how the code in the software was written. Hopefully, over time an exact issue will be pinpointed.
This indicates a design flaw in the hardware/firmware. user code should not have access to any functionality that would brick the board
Gigabyte needs to do a complete redo of their entire lineup. First their power supplies, not GPUs. They're going to get sued.
I'm glad I didn't get this game yet. I'm just wondering, is it only gigabyte? I have an Asus RTX3080
Asus rtx 3070 here.
I think its a gigabyte issue. Their everything is breaking apart lately.
Earlier it was EVGA.
Asus is king.
EVGA still has run into a couple but they have an RMA process that includes "New World issue" now and people expect it.
Gigabyte hasn't done any thing and so the issue is revealing more of their issues. Assuming the Gigabyte issue is the same as the EVGA one - it was based on construction quality and things like that. The game presses hard and if the manufacturing has an issue it seems to be coming out.
I haven't heard of an ASUS issue with it as of now.

Nvidia recently introduced a new model of the GeForce RTX 3060 graphics card, which is the direct successor to the most popular gaming graphics cards in the mainstream class. Once a GeForce GTX 1060 then a GeForce GTX 2060 and now an Ampere GeForce RTX 3060 Model. "gamingtweaks"
Oh cool, will buy one right now .... *goes into online stores**

getting a 3-series card has been an awful experience for so many people. Honestly I'm surprised I was able to get on from Best Buy when they went up for order. Granted I had to wait nearly 3 months for it to actually ship to me due to delays in stock, but I eventually had my 3080.
This is the graphics card I have for my PC and I've been liking it so far. It's the first PC I've ever built though.
