Update on RTX Space Invaders in the House!

Stefan Mileschin · 31st January 2019, 09:03

As you might already know, some Nvidia RTX cards are dying, and we're trying to figure out why. HardForum user Admiral_Ackbar6 was kind enough to send us an EVGA RTX 2080 TI that started failing after 10 hours of use, and we sent it to an engineering firm for further testing. While the analysis is still a work in progress, they've apparently been able to reproduce the corruption. Hey Kyle, they are moving along slowly due to some other priorities in the equipment queue. I can confirm that we can consistently reproduce the corruption - so it is definitely not a system/user isolated issue. I am optimistically hoping that we can confirm it is not a thermal-sensitive issue by end of week. I will check in with you then.
