I haven’t heard from LeeM - anyone with a Hybrid Rev 1.0 card mind uploading their BIOS?

Look up a few comments.

Well, my new card (Hybrid model) is running WONDERFUL. +195 core +1000 mem no issues (core peaking at 2175Mhz)

PCIe maxes out at 65watts, with max board draw of 470watts.

Time Spy hitting 18907 (paired with a 5800x) https://www.3dmark.com/3dm/62381596?

Thanks, I didn't realize that was a hybrid BIOS. Looks like the PCI subsystem ID is slightly different - 3982 for my card, 3983 in the BIOS you posted. I wonder if that's just the ID for the hybrid version, or if there are different variants of the Rev 1.0 PCB.

Edit: so it seems to work for my card - it's recognized as a hybrid now. Worst case scenario, I'll revert to the original BIOS. 

What do your temps/power look like for Port Royal? I'm getting around ~60C at the peak at ~475W

It's a little warmer here now, but Port Royal hit 14340. https://www.3dmark.com/3dm/62384451?

GPU temp got to 49.7C, GPU mem junction hit 76C, and GPU hot spot was 65.2C.

PCIe maxed at 63.1watts, total board draw was 468watts.

edit: just realized my cpu auto OC wasn't ON.. so my score would likely go slightly higher overall, but not much else would change

How are your temps so much lower? Are you using a push-pull config?

I wonder if repasting would help me.

Parts are "in" (case it open-air) a Thermaltake Core P5, and I have it sitting near the balcony door.. it was a cooler morning, so maybe that's why?

Right now it is about 65F (18.3C) outside.

Ah yeah, that could be it. It’s about 90F outside, around 75F in my apartment lol

This is my first post to this forum in years.

I got my hands on a 3090 Ftw3 by being fortunate enough to be able to afford a prebuilt containing the card. I’m positive I paid scalpers costs for the opportunity even though I purchased it from a reputable retail outlet; really though that is beside the point.

So I got the prebuilt and didn’t even bother firing it up. I immediately removed the 3090 and installed it in my main PC which has sat for months now waiting for a gfx card to complete the build.

Thanks to this thread being stickied I was able to identify that I had a problem card where my 3rd 8-pin was pulling much less juice than the first two, also my pcie draw was just over spec.

Now if this thread had not been sticked I would never have known that I had an issue (until my card crapped out), nor would I have known to contact evga at the special email address they setup.

I really like EVGA, after all they got me into an RMA very fast and were very responseive via email. My replacement card should be here this week (this is about 3 weeks in total since sending off my original card due to holidays and ground shipping).

BUT… unsticking this thread is not helpful to the community. These pieces of hardware are extremely expensive and each person who paid for one deserves a fully working-as-intended product.

Just my two cents.

Just a note here and a bit of wishful thinking someone is paying attention... there still doesn't exist a working HYBRID Bios.  all of them have blazing fans, no 500w, no fan control.

They answered me with this. What should I do?

Regular RMA then, and let them know that you'll be RMAing until that third party software reads 67W or under, like all properly functioning PCIE compliant video cards do.

Don't give up... they have provided you with out of spec card which violates PCIE standard. Also argument that you should be using voltmeter is void unless the admit that internal sensors on the card does not provide accurate information.
Note that PCIE standard is 75W (tops) which consist from (12V and 3.3V) GPU-Z measures only 12V thus the exact W slot usage may be over 90W.
Also please note that regular RMA will grant you most probably refurb card of the same PCB version.

If I would you I would insist on 3090OC or specifically requested that replacement card has PCB 1.0 (revised controller)

kind regards

Hi Tomas! finally approved my rma. They revived my card today and i got this message

Did you also recived same mail on standard rma? Or should i contact them

Yep, I have got same email... no need to worry about it.
If anything EVGA is really good in RMA once you are approved.
After you got RMA card check PCIE braced.. it should show version 1.0 which is good one :-)

I can now see that they have shipped a new card to me but its same part number as the old one
Part Number: 24G-P5-3987-KR
I hope its the revision card because i did my rma through 3090oc@evga.com

Card Nr. 4 from RMA - still no 500Watt peak possible: 
 
 
 
it's a shame how eVGA is advertising their products, but as a customer you get a very different experience :(

I'm a bit confused guys, which bios am I supposed to install to my special RMA card to hit 500w?

Okay, for those of you with new cards (rev 1.0) and not hitting 500W, try using the vbios linked in post 1. this is specifically what jacob said not to do... but it works.
 
I have an 3090 FTW ultra with air cooler
 
My first card (rev 0.1) was maxing at around 470-480, with PCIe about 80w. I emailed the 3090OC@evga and got an RMA. New card (rev 1.0) with bios that came with the card (listed at 500w) capped out at 450w, but PCIe doesn't go above 67w.
 
Loading bios 94.02.42.80.27 (resizable bar 500w oc bios for rev 0.1) allows me to hit 500w reliably, PCIe slot in the 60's.
However, 8pin #1/2 draw between 150-160w and 8pin #3 is maybe 120w...

As soon as I did anything my screen went black..
had to shut down & switch bios switch to get screen to come back on...
What should I do now????

Load into windows with the good VBIOS switch position, when in windows flip the switch to the failed VBIOS position and flash again.
 
If that fails, stop trying to flash, switch to the working VBIOS and reboot. Then contact EVGA's tech support:
