Wouldn't know evga never sold GPUs in my country

@@ms3862 Shame, they were incredible. Anything went wrong and they would absolutely immediately remedy the problem. They even cross-shipped so you could replace a damaged/dead gpu in a few days.

I worked for EVGA's customer support team in 2016-2019. I can tell you, our call wait lines were never more than 30 seconds. they had a total of 17 people in the call center on rotation maybe 10 people on site, and we serviced globally, 24/7. Big RIP. Even with the 1080 TI Fiasco where all agents were getting close to 70-100 calls a day those wait times were never more than 30 seconds before we reached you.

MSI was always a close second for me but damn... it always missed the EVGA quality. Everything but the feel good :(

my current EVGA 3080 is experiencing a failing fan bearing and the customer service has been NOTHING but amazing. therye are such wonderful people its incredible.

We all do skippy

Yes, it does........

@@whpony96 no its not

Wonder how they will top it in the next ad that ifixit orders

to me it's the best ad for ifixit 😂

Best ads ever 😛

Yes

Yes!

​@@joshuawitzaney3230 His OC logic is trash. You'd be better off going somewhere else to learn about how to properly OC your GPU. In fact I'll give you a quick rundown on how to get better scores and results. 1. Establish your max stable OC. a. Using MSI Afterburner, max out your power limit, max out your Temp limit, max out Fans, and max out core voltage slider. b. Start with OC'n the Core. When you crash back it down a "boost bin" (usually 12-15mhz depending on GPU make and model) c. OC you memory next. Some cards can do 1500+ on memory. Some cards are below 1000 mhz (Silicon Lottery). d. Watch out for artifacting. It's a sign things might not be stable. Back it down ~25mhz every time you see artifacting or crashes. 2. Maximize your potential. a. Lower your desktop resolution to 720p-1080p (This can get you more points). b. In Nvidia Control Panel, in Global settings, set Texture Filtering to "Performance" and apply. c. For Radeon users do whatever is equivalent for "Performance" in any of the filtering options in the Radeon panel. d. It may help to set "Prefer Maximum Performance" in Nvidia CP Global settings as well. 3. Tips and Tricks. a. Do your benchmarks as soon as you boot your PC. This is the coldest your PC will likely be. b. Also, consider the ambient temperature in the room. Lower ambient temps mean lower GPU temps which will result in more performance i.e. open a window in the middle of winter for better temps. 4. Optimize your Windows/OS environment. a. In Windows type in search "Adjust the appearance or performance of windows" or type in the search box in "settings" "performance". This will open up "Performance options" window. In the "Visual Effects" tab select "Best Performance" radial button and "apply". b. Close and uninstall any unneeded bloat and software using Task Manager. c. Disable any Hyper-V and Virtualization features in windows. d. Disable Core Isolation in Windows Security. e. Disable Bitlocker if enabled. f. You should also close MSI afterburner and any monitoring software for best results. Make sure to apply your OC settings before you close Afterburner. 5. But wait there's more. a. OC your other components to the highest stable. b. OC your CPU and RAM. c. Tune your RAM for tighter timings. The Lower your latency on RAM the higher score you will get (Yes! RAM performance can impact a graphics benchmark). d. Make sure your CPU cores aren't parked by using 3rd party software like "QuickCPU". e. Ensure you are on "Ultimate" power plan in Windows. d. I recommend disabling "Advanced C States" in your bios for Intel as well. e. Enable "Resizable Bar" in your bios settings. (in some benchmarks turning Resizable Bar off is beneficial)

EVGA Battlemage confirmed!

Me too. 😢 Best ever.

All i used to use. Miss them so much.

Yup. Running a 3080 Ti FTW3 from them now.

@@Megamax-ms9xu 3080 ftw 10 gig and never had any issues in two years.

Yeah if they were still around I wouldn't even look at other brands.

A great company with an honourable exit. I'd love if they came back into the GPU market 😔

Their PSU's are great. ^^ You can still buy them. XD

Corsair will be looking to partner or buy EVGA.

@@TechOverwrite honorable ??? have you some how slept throu all the dead 3090&tis from that amazon game ? :D thei corpo slavemasters wanted mroe margins thats why they left the buisness.....

RIP EVGA 😭 my first evga product was a GTX285 for mac pro like 15 years ago, and ive only had evga gpu since then til now (still have 3090 ftw3 installed)

Same though xD

I share this.. I’m a shop owner/mechanic

I guess I lucked out. I bought a 3090ti for my first build at a crazy affordable price. ($750) I hear their service is the best in the industry, too.

It will never happen. If anything Nvidia's behavior just drives home the fact that they give zero shits about the home consumer video card market and their OEM's and would rather focus on AI all in one solutions.

REALLY like my 7900XTX too :) There had been many things over the years that had pushed me away from Nvidia, but yeah... EVGA was definatly one of those things.

Same here ASRock 7900xt

AMD treats their 3rd party like puppets as well.

Same here. When my beloved 1080ti KiNGPiN died, I went & got a 6700XT Red Devel; sold that, and now I have a 7900XT Hellhound 😝

@@1DigitalFlow not wrong. i just think a lot of it comes from Nvidia directly competing with their AIB's with the founder edition cards. while AMD sorta does a similar thing with their reference cards they only really sell them for a short period and aren't in direct competition.

I remember buying a gpu, I can’t remember the type/brand etc but it came in a box shaped like a pyramid. It was awesome.

I miss the cards themselves having artwork. Not just the same old thing that we get now with maybe some kind of basic pattern and a light up logo.

Id rather not pay for a nonsense printed on a box.

@@necrosaro710 Now you pay 2x as much for a shittier box and shittier card, in comparison.

Remember when gpus used to be cheap...

I was hopeful they would make the Intel Arc cards as a middle finger to Nshidia.

Or hit the AMD market for fun.

AMD has Sapphire which I consider at the same quality as EVGA. Nvidia cards are lacking that currently

When scalping still happenin? Doubtful. X

Explain please

Not at all, if they would’ve partnered with AMD they would’ve stayed around still

Why is that? All the other card manufacturers didn't have any issues.

⁠@@necrosaro710all other AIB partners have exactly the same issues, the only difference is that EVGA refused to deal with their bullshit any longer.

​@@patrickjames3321I believe EVGA stated awhile back that they would never work with AMD. I don't know the reason why nor was I able to find when or even if that was said. I would almost swear that I had seen it though.

Don't forget both AMD and NVIDIA pla❤

They did produce a 4090 but they only made a couple and they only sent those who supported them such as popular PC RU-vidrs. I think Jay made a video review of the evga 4090.

@@WiseOne93 _Not_ 4090 ;)

Same here but I nabbed a 3080Ti FTW Ultra.

@@SausageWorship same, never selling this baby. It's going on the shelf eventually next to my 1080 :)

Same, got a 3070ti FTW3 at a time when all other cards were being scalped, especially Strix. So glad I did.

Try it with my moonshine 🤮

Dude, I'm surprised it took 2 videos. Most ppl'd be hammered after one! How about every time he drops something, and every time he cuts himself? Oh, oh, oh, and every time he says he doesn't know something and has to *finally* go RTFM.... 🤣

Are you trying to kill people with alcohol poisoning?!😅

be mad at nvidia

​@@amdintelxsniperx Nvidia isn't the only gpu maker, they could've paired up with AMD and Intel and play a long game

i personally REALLY hope that we get a big surprise this or next year and that EVGA will make cards for the new AMD or Intel generation. Or both that would be a massive selling point for those cards.

​@@elderman64I've always been curious why they didn't.

@@V4Now I'm not 100% sure but from what I've found out, the owner of EVGA wanted to retire and he didn't want to sell the company. So they've stopped most of the major stuff and will stay up till they can cover up the warranties of everything they've sold so far. It's sad but it is what it is

It's like going from a motorbike to a wheelchair but i get what you mean, you are still on wheels, got it

What was it like paying 30% over the founders msrp to get 2-5 more fps and an evga badge on the gpu? I can't bring my self to be a brainless shill so I like to hear the experience of such clowns on the internet.

@@fabrb26 i have a A770, so what............

@@donkeymoo1581 Found the hater. The EVGA experience was mostly pretty close to MSRP if you bought their reasonable cards, which still worked great and lasted forever. Sorry all you can taste is sour grapes when there's some pretty sweet things in the world you could be trying out instead. Must suck for you.

@@donkeymoo1581 womp womp

I've never used anything but Nvidia, but since they've decided I'm nothing but a Pay Piggy, I would *STRONGLY* consider an EVGA Raedon Card...

@@digitalis2977 Nvidia always considered their customers to be their personal piggybanks.

I would totally be on board.

I would definitely be interested.

I'd be very interested, EVGA would make me feel like some of my AMD GPU concerns were taken care of.

And also Intel, if Evga would partner with them then maybe they could fix half of intel's shit too lol

I would love to see and buy a EVGA AMD card! I was just coming to the comments too say this same thing. Here's to hoping 🤞

@@elderman64 Oh yeah absolutely, Intel cards have progressed nicely and have a great amount of potential. But that is absent the things EVGA does. They need a board/chip partner.

yep, got a sapphire 7900XT and its a beast, hit it with max settings cyberpunk 60fps and it doesn't even ramp up fans

I doubt it would go well without a lot of time investment; it'd be like asking a company that manufactured trains to jump in and help a bus/car/plane manufacturer, i.e. similar ideas and concept in their core essence (engine make people in box move) but vastly different engineering challenges and edge cases

Stil have mine as well 1080ti hybrid still run like a top.

Same here. Still using a 1070 SC2 which could do better than a different brand 1080. I like driving a vintage sportscar collectors item

And the majority of the other eVGA staff as well,

I had the 12gb version of that card. I sold it for $500. Then bought a 4070 Super FE to replace it in my second PC. It’s faster, significantly smaller and consumes half the power.

@@ZackSNetwork nice im still using the 3080 xc3 to i dont game so i dont need more power

Yeah do that. Keep it as a reminder.

@@Mason_bluegrassThe 3080 is an amazing GPU. It’s a shame Nvidia didn’t give it 16gbs of vram.

Same with my 3070 Ti FTW3. I'm going to run that card until it melts.

It's even hard to believe that customers could love a company, it's just EVGA phenomenon and I've never heard of any other.

@@SirSleepwalker If a company is good enough, ppl are gonna love 'em. They are few and far between, but eVGA is one shining example of a damned good company, even if they have dropped out of the GPU market.

nah that'd be Voodoo 3DFX. EVGA is memberberries

Evga 8800 gt was my first card and I spent everything on that PC when I was 11. Was so bummed when it broke a year later, I thought I was doomed. Nope, called them, they paid for all the shipping and sent me a new one in a couple days. Didn’t even know such a thing was possible being a kid. Such a good card

I miss my evga 8800gt. It was the only card I kept. A hurricane destroyed it 😞
