Hi there, I got problems with newly purchased EVGA 3090 FTW3 ULTRA, my previous G-Card is EVGA 2080TI FTW3 ULTRA which works perfectly in last 2 years. Now, I upgrade to 3090 comes with problems. Games(like PUBG,SEKIRO,BF5) crashed after probably 30 minutes playing.(BTW, Games playing with RAZER CORTEX on.) Games are then often crashed since first carsh. I used precision X1(1.1.1) to check temperatures on every part of GPU which are all below 70C(around 55C-65C). And it once had screen flicker after game crashed. (through it was back to normal after reboot) Here is my rig: CPU: 9900K (OC TO 4.7~5.0) RAM: G.Skill 32G 3200 C14 (XMP II activated) Cooler:H150I with MOD MB:ASUS M11 APEX PSU: EVGA 1000T GPU:EVGA 3090 FTW3 ULTRA SSD: SAMSUNG 970 PRO Some folks say I should not OC my rig. But I don't see it as the solution. After all, what the point to get 3090 without OC? I would rather get a 30XX instead of 3090. Any suggestions or solytions would be appreciated.

I just sold my Asus Strix 3090 but I had issues where some games were super sensitive and would crash even at like 65-75c with a modest overclock (like 1920MHz). If there was no overclock, it wouldn't crash. Why? I don't know. Sensitivity to heat for sure though. OC isn't guaranteed. Especially on air. But you can try playing around to see what's causing the issue. Try a lower clock speed with lower voltage. See if the problem persists with lower temperatures or not. Basically trouble shooting to see what part of your OC is hurting it, exactly. End of the day...450W is no joke to cool. As a side note, there are a lot of people who did thermal testing on the 3090s and found there were areas on the card that could have benefited from thermal pads, but there are none there. So they made guides for where to add additional thermal pads and it improved and stabilized their clocks. Sucks that you may have to do that but I'm trying to give you all available options.

thermal pads would definitely help .But it may void your GPU's warranty(at least in Taiwan). My best hope is still on improvement of NV drivers.

You should confirm with EVGA directly about whether you'll void the warranty by opening the card up. As far as I'm aware, one of the great things about EVGA is that they cover you even if you dismantle the whole thing to install a water block, for example. In such a case, dismantling and reassembling their own cooler shouldn't be an issue. But definitely message their support and get a clear answer before you do anything just to be extra safe.

As long as you don't physically damage the card, you can tear down and apply thermal pads and new thermal grease and still keep your full warranty. Just be aware that EVGA used some thermal putty on the 3090 FTW3's VRMs this round.
As previously mentioned - overclocking isn't guaranteed by EVGA. The silicon lottery of the GPU die and the VRAM determines how well you can overclock. Some people can overclock +150 offset on the GPU and game / benchmark all day without crashes. Others can only do +30. Some folks can run +1400MHz offset on their VRAM, and some can only run +100 without performance loss (this GDDR6X has limited error correction, and pushing the VRAM too far can create too many errors which slows everything down).
