phil white 274 Posted February 9, 2021 Report Share Posted February 9, 2021 My 2080ti has its own liquid cooler built in but it looks like the pump has failed allowing rapid heat build up and crashing the pc. I loved that card so its time to look for a replacement as its not under warranty. I am aware of a shortage of GPU's at the moment but i have seen a 3090 for sale. Link to post Share on other sites
mutley 4,498 Posted February 9, 2021 Report Share Posted February 9, 2021 Wow, that is a big fail Phil. I have a 2080ti too, the 3090 will improve the performance, just the price, I hope it is a good deal. Link to post Share on other sites
needles 1,013 Posted February 10, 2021 Report Share Posted February 10, 2021 Phil, don’t go giving your money to the scalpers. If you can, get your hands on a lesser card for the time being then when the 30 range are back on the shelves at the correct price, get one then. The scalpers are just taking advantage of the lack of available stock at the moment. Over pricing cards that will be a fraction of their prices when they become available. Try and hold out. Sorry to hear what has happened to yours. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

phil white 274 Posted March 14, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2021 My 2080ti that died is still under the 4 year manufactures warranty so will be returned to the retailer for sorting. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
