Don't be surprised if that voltage unlock also trips an efuse.. Super cheap RPis do it to invalidate warranties

 
funny , when I first seen that  ''safety fuse''  advertised  here on evga cards   I questioned  whats the real deal on that .   not like we ever needed that on cards before  , but you do bring up a real use of it now  and how it can be its intended  use today  . also like you say adds a new warrantee void clause / protection from a lot of RMA claims [opinion] 
 
like I like to joke'' today you build computers to fit ''there '' needs not yours  ''  then top it all off with a windows 10 only or it don't fully work  [or if at all ]  ...lol....

I wonder if you can use Raytracing and DLSS at the same time to get a 2K raytraced image without killing the fps output.

If it supports both, it should run both, if I am not mistaken. The list that supports both seems small for now, but I am sure it will grow soon.

Thanks, RivAngE. Finally someone else understand that DLSS is the tip of the iceberg, that is the endless possibilities of Tensor cores and their ability to use Artificial Intelligence to change we game for the better.
 
Not only that, those Quadro RTX cards, with their huge abundance of tensor cores are actually going to lead to huge advancements in the medical fields and save lives. One again, that's just the tip of the iceberg.
 
I don't quite remember the reception to CUDA cores, when they were first announced, but I am sure people doubted them too. They weren't a one trick pony, and Tensor cores aren't either. They are going to advance us a lot further.
 
The way I look at it, if your card is using AI and Deep Learning to improve functionality, our cards will now have some sort of hyper-advanced muscle memory that'll continue to improve with age. These cards are at their infancy stage. Things can only get better with age. Does that blow your mind!?

Mentioning Quadro and Tensor cores, how much do you think will be locked behind professional drivers?

My guess, tons of features will be locked out. The gaming drivers won’t provide the same performance as the Quadro by far.

TheParagonHero
I am assuming a lot will be locked behind professional drivers, with only gaming features being delivered to GeForce cards, but as far as gaming goes, I am positive we'll benefit greatly. Not right now, of course, since those cores are sitting untapped as we wait for DirectX updates and general game implementation, but the future looks exponentially brighter than the present.
 
We should really start a thread theorizing the potential advantages of tensor cores in both gaming and professional spaces. RT cores are cool and all, but right now, the real sleeper powerhouse are those Tensor cores.

The Der8auer video I shared in the computer industry forum shows that voltage doesn’t help or scale on these cards at all, even under subzero temps, and he volt modded the card further than any normal user.

Users on Air and water will see no help from any volt mod, but shunt modding helped a little.

Hi,
Yeah helped add another 150w to it's draw
I saw nearly 400w soaked up
 
I decided on the resistor shunt mod instead of LM.

With power balancing on the pcb, it was said that more than likely the power didn’t actually go to 400w, but balanced from the pci slot to the 8 pin, since the power balance features registered that the 8pin wasn’t providing sufficient power where it should have been.

That would explain why the performance didn’t change all that much.

475 what? In most european contries used cards have ridicolous pricing, and aren't even worth loosing warrenty. European consumer rights are so strong, that honestly a used card would have to cost about 20% of the new price to be worth the gamble.
