Anyone notice how EVGA website doesn't link directly to the product manual.
 
https://www.evga.com/products/product.aspx?pn=134-KS-E379-KR
Visit that page, then click on the Manual button. It will take you to this page below.
https://www.evga.com/support/manuals/  (default page for all manuals)
Now you have to scroll down and search for the correct manual. It would be more convenient for everyone, if evga would make each product page, link you to the correct manual for that product.

    I've noticed this as well.  Always kind of a pain to jump through these extra hoops to get the info you're looking for.  A direct link to the manual from the specific item's product page would be nice...

    Link directly to each manual on the product page. People can use the full list of manuals, when the product is no longer being sold. That is when evga usually removes the product page.

    Wonder if this will fall on deaf ears at evga. They still refuse to improve the Hot Deals section on the forums.

    Here we are 4 days later not one person from evga has yet to reply to this. Linking directly to the product manual is not a good thing?

    Yes please. Having to scroll down that page of all the product after I was just at the other product page is a bit obnoxious.

    It's not looking like this thread is getting any attention from those who could make the changes.

    Maybe go through the proper channels to for Suggestions is the best place for this.
    Yes it would be nice but after the years I have learned to live with it.
    I like looking at the bright side of life and not always looking for the bad side and complain about it over and over to the Public.
    Meaning that the Forum is not the place to submit your problems with what you do not like about EVGA or EVGA's Products. IMO
    Want to make a real change then work for EVGA and become their Webmaster and Head of Technical Development Department.

    That's because the current community manager refuses to engage with the community. We seen that happen with us trying to get evga to improve the Hot Deals section.

    I did use the website suggestion. I also posted here on the forums. Guess what, EVGA so far has ignored both of them. None of us should be surprised by that, remember when some of us tried to make the Hot Deals section more useful for the community. How that went no where due to community manager unwilling to engage with the community about it.
     
    Those of us that were around back when Shane was our community manager (he left evga like 5 years ago). Shane was always willing to engage with the community daily. Any threads like this that would improve things for people, he would of made a comment about it within a few hours of seeing it, if not sooner.

    Because of the older Info Sheets and other type of information dropping off the website I stated to save down all that I can to my local computer.

    Have you thought about sending evga a suggestion to keep the "spec sheet" link with the product manual pdf link. That would be helpful for anyone looking for information on older evga hardware.

    I do it all the time. It is helpful for members who want to sell their hardware but for me it is the Tech Info for helping others here on the Forum.
    But I would say that 10 years is more then enough and what tech has come before should be replace with current Tech.

    Guess evga doesn't want to make it easier for people to find the manual for it's products.

    You might be on their Call Blocker List.

    Were still waiting for someone from EVGA to comment. Surely they can see this would be a benefit for people.

    It is not the Topic, it is a good idea but not IMO the correct channels to get EVGA's Attention.

    If you think it's a good idea too, feel free to use the other channels to get evga attention. 
     
    This is evga official forums. We see evga techs on here and evga has a community manager. A community manager should be willing to engage with the public. A simple reply  with "this is a good idea" or "will look into this" shouldn't be too much to ask.
