Interesting, there are already some confirmed VBIOS out there, and the max power limit seems to be 516W from the Strix LC.

I guess you could just flash that VBIOS in the other cards, right? I think all 3090Ti use the PCI-E 5.0 connector

Good point, all of the cards use the same MP86957 controller for the VRM, and all of them use the same power connector as well. So I would assume you could flash any BIOS you wanted, including any XOC ones.

 

So.... who's getting the 3090 Ti? This will be a cool thread to follow

 

I grabbed a FTW3 Ultra Gaming while I could, when I really wanted the Suprim X. The Suprim X was listed on Newegg Canada about 10 minutes after my FTW3 shipped out. Sucks.

Whatever, this will be a fun experiment.

 

Watching this thread with curiosity. From the OC results in reviews, it seems these cards are all hitting 2150-2200MHz which I didn't expect considering slightly more cores and also higher heat levels to manage. TechPowerUp was able to hit 24Gbps on memory OC as well if I remember correctly. In memory bandwidth heavy games like Horizon Zero Dawn, this could result in a 10% performance increase even over an overclocked 3090. For most games I'm expecting 5%. If 4090 weren't right around the corner I'd be tempted. Put in a notify for the Kingpin model just in case.

 

It's really hard to assess the true increase in performance since the manufacturers play games with the power limit. Looks like 5-10% though depending on the game. Reviews showing 10%+ are mostly comparing to a base 350w card. You would think at least one reviewer might equalize power as part of the review, but I guess it's expecting too much for them to write a review for the enthusiast community.

 

hoping to get a water blocked one

 

If anyone has or is getting one of these cards, please post a screenshot of the voltage/frequency curve from Afterburner if you can. I'm curious what the base curve looks like. Take the screenshot with the card cooled down at idle as it shifts with temperatures.

 

I have lost interest with RTX-30 series after having 3080, 3080 Ti and now 3070 Ti Mobile. Part of reason was lack of games apart from just doing 4K to really enjoy these cards.

 

Replaced my old crusty RTX 3090 with this:

EVGA RTX 3090 Ti FTW Ultra

 

Can you do some benches and overclock results if you have time, please?

Looks like this card need the "1200w" bios This result is like 3090 with 1000w bios and 15c air cooling.

 

I have already the 3090 TI STRIX LC OC. The cooler is pretty awesome!

Where did you get it ?

 

What's the deal so far on high power BIOS's? Right now my FTW3 Ultra is maxing out at a measly 480watts.

 

If/when there is a version of NVFlash that works for this card you could flash one of the 516w bios like the Strix. I think right now that's the best that can be done.

 

Anyone who has the FTW3 what direction do the fans blow? Do they suck air in or are they blowing outwards? I have 3 case fans that would be blowing directly onto the card and want to make sure that is okay before I purchase one.

 

Looks like blocks are eventually going to be available,

Has anyone tried the latest NVFlash to see if it works on the 3090Ti?

 

Newegg has cards in stock, Zotac Amp holo and Gigabyte gaming. But without confirmed waterblocks I am hesitant to purchase. EK has confirmed several cards are getting blocks but neither of these are on the list.

edit: seems there is a high likelihood of somebody making a block for the gigabyte 3090 ti gaming so I went ahead and ordered that. If the memory chips were front and back like the 3090 I might have been a bit more hesitant to only get one that has a block supporting active cooling on the back but now it doesn't really matter that much. I hope EK makes a nice block for this card, but I will have to see. Excited to finally have a card that can push my panel at 4k 120hz. I doubt this card will be able to actually push that frame rate on cyberpunk but it will be a lot better than what I am getting on my Titan XP now.

 

good family, this image is of my msi 3090 you, do you know what derivation must be installed to enhance the limit? is liquid metal feasible? or we will have to wait bios mod for it

 

2mOhm shunts? Wow that's new lol

Maybe someone better with resistances and power (P = E*I) can help you there, since most of the time the calculations were made with 5mOhm shunts as base.

 

my results so far, with universal water block, no thermal pads on memories, fan help, this core wants a good block haha

Result not found

I toyed with getting one and doing this. Fix your links. I'd like to see what you got out of it.

 

It will be nice to know what the 2/3 owners in the world thing about this VGA, after the nuclear fusion based PSU cooldown.

 

yet again US barely any stock anywhere.

 

Guess it depends on location and which model(s) you are seeking.

Microcenters seem to be getting some in each of the last few days. Both of our MD and PA had EVGA models ($2k and 2.2k) in stock. Went out of stock then back in stock today for the MD then out of stock albeit the Parkville, MD still has three in stock of the 2.2k as I type.

 

I flashed the Strix 516w vBIOS to my FTW3 Ultra. It works. No sure about long term but I wasn't experiencing any issues with power or locked clocks. Problem is fan controls, so unless going under water it's useless.

EVGA needs to release an updated vBIOS for the FTW3. 480w is less than the 500w the old 3090 FTW3 had which is complete BS.

You mean the fan curve isn't the same? Can't set a custom curve in Afterburner? I had to do that way back when my 3090 was still air cooled when running various other bios.

 

Got the FTW3 Ultra today and it is so nice to see memory temps max at 65 Celsius versus 98 Celsius.

 

Very good, I'm looking to make the resistance mod and I want your opinion.

CAR MSI 3090 TI SUPRIM X

In this image there is a 5 ohm resistor, pcie slot....

In this other one they are 2 ohm.

I want to stack the resistors

The calculation is as follows:
480w default shunt 002 + added shunt 005= 672 new power limit .

Is it necessary to stack a resistor on top of the 5ohm one?

Is this the correct resistor?

Wow... hats off to EVGA for implementing bot protection, I was actually able to get a GPU at MSRP!

Going from an EVGA FTW3 Ultra 2080Ti to the EVGA Black Gaming 3090Ti so this should be a nice boost @ 4K.

I assume the FTW Black, Regular and Ultra are all using the same cooler and the only difference is the bin. I took the gamble that I could manually overclock and get the same/similar clocks as the others, not sure it is worth $150-$200 more for 50Mhz.

 

It is binning. Jacob has stated that a couple of times.
