Can anyone who just recently got an LHR card tell me if their 3080 FTW3 Ultra is able to run New World without any of the issues of their GPU fans showing ridiculous RPM readings? I've seen this card named in the latest article from Igorslab, just do a search for "EVGA GeForce RTX 3080, RTX 3090 and (not only) New World – when design flaws cause graphics cards to run amok | Tests"

I definitely won't be playing that game anytime soon. Anyone with a card knowingly that they could destroy their card playing this questionable game, when cards are hard to come by got to have some issues.

I'd stay far away from this game and wouldn't be willing to check for someone asking on a forum if it runs ok...

Thanks for the response. Definitely not telling anyone they have to check. I would hope that EVGA can test it themselves with all their cards and make a statement that it's all good. They're already cross-shipping replacements to people that had their cards die on them.

Shipped out my GPU Saturday, overnight as the promised a Monday delivery by 10.30am

All I got is a origin scan from Saturday and no updates as to remotely, where it is., Other than the local distro center.

8 months waiting and now it might be lost. The day it's been today, I'd not be surprised if it was stolen.

@roged49 Any updates?
 
My step up was on 10/11/2020  getting close..

UPS delivered today ( Overnight shipping, saturday morning drop off @ 9.30am w/ Staples, they promised monday delivery, trying to get a refund for the late delivery ). Now i wait, in my splendor, i forgot to enlarge the RMA number on the shipping label. Learn from my mistakes.

Per Jacob via Twitter - no 3080 step-ups this week.

Damn. He said the 3080 would continue to get good movement this month in the step-up a couple of weeks ago. I guess we need to just realize he's not gonna come out and say, "Abandon all hope, for a good while at least," but sheesh. Only like four or five last week and none this week. I'm not really seeing the benefit of moving to the LHR cards. Ah well. Life goes on.

I assume they are keeping RMA cards handy due to Amazon fiasco. And it wasn't EVGA's choice to move to LHR. That's what nVidia is selling them.

Man, all of you are so much closer than I am. I registered my 3060 on 3/2/2021 @ 10:08:18 PM. Basically instantly put myself on step up after registering. So it will be a long long while. By the time it gets to me I will probably have a 4060 or 4070. haha

I finally, after a 302 day wait ( 293 in step up), I have my 3080!

I was even forced to get a new 850w psu as I was missing the 2nd 8pin connector. My UPS is reporting double the watts used compared to the 2080. Resizeable bar is all setup as well, good to go.

So it practicality arrived by my birthday.

I think right now I will be celebrating a 1 year anniversary since I signed up.Anyone else think that is crazy?
