Yup, running cool with 450W of power draw. That's an improvement on the previous FE coolers for sure!
Which is, sadly, exactly as Nvidia intended (if true).What's hilarious is, many gamers that were waiting for the 40 series reviews, and a much lower Ampere price reduction before pulling the plug on the 3090/3090Tis, etc., after today's 4000 series revealing, most (if not all) of them are running out to buy any Ampere that they could find now.
Buuuuut...some of those early reduction GPU's prices has jacked back up or those said GPUs are no longer in stock! You snooze... well, you know the rest.
I saw a Zotac 3090 for around $900 yesterday on Amazon Early Access.What's hilarious is, many gamers that were waiting for the 40 series reviews, and a much lower Ampere price reduction before pulling the plug on the 3090/3090Tis, etc., after today's 4000 series revealing, most (if not all) of them are running out to buy any Ampere that they could find now.
Zotac? Yeah, but no.
And retailers and AIBs, Newegg, B&H, GIGABYTE, ASUS, etc., have already started scalping their products again.
Yeah, I'm not a fan either but I've heard from some that have had good experiences with them.
They put out some of the highest-performance models, including some XOC stuff with 1000W power limits (read as unlimited).
I have had the chance lately to review a few Zotac video cards. Overall they have been well constructed, very well cooled and nearly silent.
That's good to hear. Thanks.
