Why do I get the feeling it's just like last time? GPU vendors cheaping out on hardware yet again, like VRM cooling/heatsinks, which causes the GPU to fail when idle on a menu with an uncapped framerate. I wouldn't be surprised.
Most likely the 3080ti came out during the pandemic when it was hard to get parts out of Japan so manufacturers had to look for substitutes and work with limited staff so i would expect cards made during that time might have inferior parts or have slipped through QC checks.
I wonder how many are EVGA cards who are no longer making GPUs. Supposedly they have enough derrick to replace those that are on warranty. I some how doubt that. I put a10 year warranty on 3090 when I got mine, and am in my 3rd one 🙄
Lol I like the thumbnail.
