    I think Nvidia mishandled the (paper)launch.
     
    And what still bothers me, there's still no scientifical/thorough official explanation for all of this, just some general "it's fixed now" -statements.
     
    Rumors go around, people are automatically thinking SP-Caps are bad based on rumours. People that hear about all of this start avoiding cards with SP-Caps and at this point AIB's are left with no choice, they have to change the layout and say it's fixed.

    I have moved this thread over to the computer industry news, as this isn’t about EVGA hardware.

    here's what I could find in regards to tracking down the source,
     
    https://videocardz.com/newz/manufacturers-respond-to-geforce-rtx-3080-3090-crash-to-desktop-issues
     
    which shows a pic of:
     
    and sources a facebook post which is now deleted
    https://www.facebook.com/ZOTACMalaysia/posts/3548018081928357
     
    I guess it didn't go over well.
     
    it seems to be from Zotac's Malaysia's facebook page, though it's now deleted.
