Hi everyone,
I'm currently looking to buy a used EVGA RTX 3090
but i heard some horror stories about the rev 0.1 suddenly dying and having power balance issues. I found someone that selling a card with rev 1.0, does it still have any issues? I also heard that there was a rev 1.2 but i could not find what the difference is between them.

    Thank you for the reply, do you know the difference between rev 1.0 and 1.2?

    No, I couldn’t find the changes either. I would suggest contacting evga support to ask about the changes between the two.

    I would not buy the original 0.1 rev.

    Buying Any PC part used is a gamble if there is No Warranty from the Mfg
     
    With EVGA, use the serial number & read the Warranty Terms - for your part of the World, so you understand what voids a warranty
     
    Transferable Limited Warranty (Second-Hand Purchasers)
     
    Check warranty status on an unregistered product
     
    Original and Secondhand Warranty FAQ

     
    You could just buy a used EVGA 3090Ti FTW3, they did not seem to have those issues
