"deep loaded" was really "de-bloated" meaning bloatware was stripped out to leave as many resources as possible for benchmarking. Essentially, nothing unnecessary dragging down performance needed for crucial tasks. As an example, I recall that Windows Vista and Windows 7 use VRAM for the "Aero" blur effect so if you switched to a basic Windows theme you would reclaim that VRAM for other tasks. I don't think it was a *lot* of VRAM, but in some cases every little bit helps.

You've earned my subscription at the very least, holy crap you are a hard worker. I spent a lot of time in the IT trenches pulling all-nighters fixing stuff that had no business being fixed just to help customers out. You seem to care about your work and are passionate about doing it right. Bravo!
@Browsing Da Webs At least Sony made it 4 hours before their pre-orders were all sold out ...... Well at least Nvidia won't make the costs of games go up 10 bucks so there is that over Sony ......
RTX 3080 Custom Cards - Base score - OC score - details; an offset is an offset, not absolute. Asus TUF Gaming - 11845 - 12294 -- 90MHz core offset - 600 MHz memory offset EVGA FTW3 - 12140 - 12460 -- 50MHz core - 500MHz mem Gigabyte Eagle - 11777 - 12250 -- 100MHz core - 900MHz mem ... guess which one is going to take a cold bath this weekend.
@@BG-iu1mv Negligible differences. In these tests the EVGA benched higher but the margin is so slim that the silicone lottery likely plays a larger part than manufacturer. - Gigabyte is... worrying though.
@@nunyabusiness8422 - I agree with you there, its a bit of a tossup, the indepth tests will tell him which to use, there was no stand out silicone but from watching the stream, the TUF seemed more stable.
He can take his time now since there obviously isn't any rush to get them out there ....... I feel sorry for all these reviewers who lost a lot of sleep the past week for essentially no reason what so ever ..... I guess actually having a 3080 is a consolation prize .....
LOL! That's EXACTLY what I was thinking. Nice collection of 3080's you got there Steve. Wanting to spend $700+ on a single component has never made me feel like such a peasant.
Thanks for the case recommendation. I ended up going with the Lian Li O11 XL. I want to work toward full open loop liquid cooling and it will be a great option for that when I am ready, and still great for my closed loop setup now I think.
50:55 Viewers were wondering why this baseline overclock was only 3.8%. GPU Boost 3.0 already boosts clock speed from 1700 to 1900mhz, so of course overclocking will only deliver small results.
Must make these cherry picked cards look their best so the consumer will buy same card only with the lower binned chip that will not OC as well through retail.
@@billwiley7216 but the difference between the FTW ICX BBQ WTF edition and the Eagle OC (one of the $700) models isn't all that much. Maybe a few frames, at best. All for like $110 difference. Even the cheapest MSRP models seem to have good cooling solutions this time around. They're just power limited in the BIOS. But they seem to be just fine.
1:08:08 When you said "I don't know what to do with this liquid nitrogen now.." it reminded me of your stream when someone asked, "Can you drink it?" And you said, "Once!" lol
@Future President while youre "investigating" ebay etc...dont forget to drop a few fake bids on the scalpers you say dont exist ;-) Can't be promoting that kind of behaviour ...
@NRIII Games Etc. Dont know what your peoples problems are...even my local store had 2 of them still on shelves when I walked in. And they dont really sell a lot of PC components.
FYI GN team: TH-cams autoplay brings me back to this video AFTER EVERY GN VIDEO I WATCH. So if your stats for this video show like a million people watching for a few seconds and then leaving that is likely why. I've watched it through at least twice.
I'm 60% sure the tanks I've seen have a small switch on one of the pipes that can be turned 90 degrees to the pipe or in line with the pipe to control a valve. in one setting the tank will climb to that ~220psi threshold and then make the loud off-gassing noise. in the other setting the tank slowly releases pressure instead (out of the pipe with this small switch; closing the valve leaves that pressure to build for the 230psi blowoff valve)
That’s probably when it will be back in stock so good timing. Nice to see all the youtubers got all the nation’s stock of cards though because there certainly weren’t any for sale this morning that were actually available for us plebes. Today’s launch was a paper launch shitshow.
@@seeibe how so? They're just doing their job. It isn't their fault ass wipes buy all kinds of stalk and leave nothing for the average gamer. If anything Nvidia is to blame if they don't set a limit per customer in the future batches.
@@Swoleworm nvidia purposefully created an overhyped release with such low supply that almost nobody can get a card. They want good reviews and high demand for these cards that nobody can get, to defeat AMD in the marketing game. A disgruntled nvidia employee leaked this information a few days ago, as outlined in this video: th-cam.com/video/SxtfNcm45xk/w-d-xo.html
Six years ago Gamer’s Nexus, helped me out when I was building my first PC. Now I’ve been glued to this channel again since I’m upgrading soon. Thanks for all the work you guys are (and will be) putting in during this launch cycle.
Same here, in the US if you go on Amazon and search rtx 3080 nothing even comes up. You have to Google search rtx 3080 Amazon to get to the landing page.
Pretty new here. Had no idea you were in NC. That's awesome and I really appreciate the level of detail you provide. This video alone will allow me to make a better purchasing decision. Plan on waiting to see what the new AMD Ryzen line looks like and maybe big navi can compete.
3:19:00 I think he was talking about bots buying up anything that wasn't in a brick and mortar store and those stores only carrying partner cards and a very very limited number of them.
I swear AIB partners should hire designers for their cards. Honestly most of them looks terribad. The Strix actually looks the best, and I still don't like how it looks.
Yeah it's like they didn't get the memo when Nvidia decided to go from the angled design to the clean look of the FE cards. They clearly just thought "gamers" and made their typical overly aggressive sharp angles.
I could use one of those 3080s, just started building my new PC so my wife and I can finally play games together after 2 years of waiting. Looks like I'm waiting another 3 months at least. All my other PC components sitting in a corner collecting dust. Freaking NVIDIA/Ebay/Scalpers. Such BS.
If component prices werent so high at the moment I'd say throw an RX 580 in it just to use it but the only used GPUs that aren't overpriced right now are 2080 tis lol
Almost the same. I built my first PC from the last 15 years and have been waiting 1 month already for a good video card for VR. Was going to get a 2080Ti, but couldn't spend that kind of money last month. Then learned they were discontinued, so I waited. Now I wait longer while everything I own depreciates before I can use it.
@@jesh879 Just ruins my plans. I've taken a week of PTO first week of October, so my wife and I can have a week of playing games.... I need a vacation!!!
3080 instantly unobtainium ...didn't really expect anything else...card prices are rising at genuine e-tailers already and on eBay for £1000++ ... Don't buy the cards from eBay you're just feeding the sharks... maybe we now have to wait for rtx4080 to upgrade our Pascal cards ......or big navi (if the drivers work)...AHH well life goes on.
LOL this wasn’t a one time stock... why would you have to wait for a new generarion? People are so dramatic, there will be plenty of stock soon enough, probably mid october.
Take a look at his recent video regarding restocking. If you really feel like you gotta wait a whole new generation to upgrade and 3080 will never be in stock and your weekend is basically ruined, you need to rethink your values dude. It's just a card, cards will come. Give it time. Especially now during quarantine, it's gonna take longer to stock up. So quick crying like a bitch and be patient. You'll get your card soon. Unless you don't really need it and you're happy with Pascal, then why comment?
Man alive Steve, that is the longest video i have ever watched! I did pick up a few tips though. And i am also very glad that i have refrained from spending a sh1t loada money on these last two Gens. I noticed that you made reference to the 1080ti several times. I have a Aorus 1080ti and it remains faithful and powerful to this day,with plenty of OC headroom also. I'm so glad that i haven't impulsively invested in these 2 gens as i feel now like i would have wasted my money when i already have a 'brilliant' generation of card for at least another year. You are very educational, but sometimes speak a bit too fast.. But well done for all the tiring effort you put into bringing this content and knowledge to us all! I couldn't listen to Linus's voice for that long, and Jay-Z 2p has too much clowning goin on to sit and watch for 3 nd arf hours!!! I hope you acknowledge this message... And i'm proper amazed at how much money you made in that time. I dont think there's anyone in da UK that manages to achieve that!? No wonder you put the effort in. I always watch your content. Well done man,and thanks for the money saving tips and tech knowledge 👍🙂
From now on September 17 will be known as Black Thursday ...... Why wait until the end of November to be disappointed when you can be disappointed in mid-September?
The Ampere cards look like AMD made them in the GCN era: Lots of computing performance but not utilized fully, out of the box maxed out as far as they go, pushed the performance as high as they can even with increased power consumption, almost zero OC potential. Meanwhile AMD is removing the unnecessary things from their gaming cards anf going with a more lightweight architecture. The two companies kinda swapped their approach. I'm more and more interested in big Navi, because NV seemed to push their cards to the absolute limit even sacrificing power consumption to get the last few % performance off for some reason...and i think that reason is they know Navi will be good. Ampere is NV's GCN, and Navi can be AMD's Maxwell. TBH i think people rushing to get a 3080 day 1 are stupid. It is on my shopping list but i will wait for Navi because the more we see from Ampere the more it gets obvious something is brewing on the GPU market.
@@Malibutomi I reckon a liquid cooled, fully unlocked 3080 could trade blows with a stock 3090 Thats why I think NVIDIA is limiting power and locking voltage control
@@Icenfyre Leaks are already out. It is 10-15% faster than a 3080 "LMAO" Anyone with a brain could see that logically. It has 20% more SP than the 3080 hence it could have been 20% faster if the performance would scale 100% with SP numbers...but it never scales 100%.
Sometimes the lack of rational (or any critical) thinking REALLY boggles my mind. Even in this audience which I would have assumed were more clued up than that... To say it's in "poor taste" to review a card you couldn't get is like saying it's in poor taste to review a Mclaren P1 because most people can't afford to buy one. The review will always be relevant so when people CAN get the cards, the review will be very useful. Now you might ask "Why not just wait until everyone can get one before you do these things?" There are 2 reasons. 1. Attention span of the audience - If you wait, by the time you make the content, something newer might have come out and you'll get people talking about "Old news" and "Nobody cares" or "Where is my Big Navi content!?". You can't have it both ways, being upset just because you can't have something is very petulant. 2. Competition - If you wait, your competitors will not wait (other tech reviewers, might not be explicit competition but they all occupy the same space) and you WILL lose out on business which when avoidable is crazy to do. Most people will obviously understand this but the same sentiments keep cropping up with these cards and the PS5 and it's just so asinine. Scalping idiots will always exist, blame the manufacturers for not making it harder to scalp, not the reviewers for doing their jobs.

@@GamersNexus REALLY? 2 cards in Vancouver Canada, 2 cards in Edmonton Alberta, Nothing in Saskatchewan, 32 Cards in Toronto and on and on so where are the Thousands? by my count there were less than 200 cards available in Canada
That gigabyte eagle looks like the only card of the 3 that actually took the flow through design seriously. The other 2 seem like they did it as a small afterthought. The eagle looks like they just said "Fine nVidia. We'll cut a big ass hole in it"!
lol yep... the liquid nitrogen tank scared the hell out of me too. I have headphones on and turned up pretty loud, I thought something happened to the card, haha...
Totally commend you on your dedication in doing all the work you do. Unfortunately what people don't see is the many hours outside of the streamed content that you would be putting into what you do , I personally love watching your streams and I was impressed with the dedication, time and effort you put into the Newegg drama.. well done and I totally agree with you that if Amazon has a decent competitor they will keep each other honest hopefully... Here in Australia Amazon is way too expensive and I can get gear a lot cheaper from Umart and a local store Computer Alliance that usually have some great deals with a coupon 10% discount and free shipping which also includes any other items you purchased at the time.
So I've been wondering why I've seen several ads for Gamer Storm coolers and a couple preview videos as well as the factory tour of them being made, but have yet to see a full thermal review on it. The old ads I believe have only been for the Captain Pro from a year or so ago and they currently have a the Pro V2 out as well as new versions of the Castle line. They look great but I've only found a few somewhat informative videos on them. Results on the older versions seem to be somewhat conflicting in results. Would love a more comprehensive look at where they fit, in a GN Coolers list.
I'm happy you guys could get some 3080s, so you can inform us on what to do when we get one (: I had the chance to get a zotac 2080 trinity (I think that was the name) but I'm hoping for an 3090. Does anybody actually knows when we can get the sweet 3090 Kingpin?
YuhNinja I mean, I’m assuming he can, since he’s talking about it. Cause and effect and all. I might be hella broke but some people make bank, and are completely within their rights to spend their money.
We are working on a stream recap!

Thank you so much for the time stamps ❤️
Fck danm my guy
"deep loaded" was really "de-bloated" meaning bloatware was stripped out to leave as many resources as possible for benchmarking. Essentially, nothing unnecessary dragging down performance needed for crucial tasks.
As an example, I recall that Windows Vista and Windows 7 use VRAM for the "Aero" blur effect so if you switched to a basic Windows theme you would reclaim that VRAM for other tasks. I don't think it was a *lot* of VRAM, but in some cases every little bit helps.

Congrats Steve for receiving most of the 3080s that Nvidia actually made so far. Looking forward to the full reviews!
He can take his time now since there obviously isn't any rush to get them out there ....... I feel sorry for all these reviewers who lost a lot of sleep the past week for essentially no reason what so ever ..... I guess actually having a 3080 is a consolation prize .....
LOL! That's EXACTLY what I was thinking. Nice collection of 3080's you got there Steve. Wanting to spend $700+ on a single component has never made me feel like such a peasant.
It's amazing how this is perpetually live!
Thanks!
Thanks for the case recommendation. I ended up going with the Lian Li O11 XL. I want to work toward full open loop liquid cooling and it will be a great option for that when I am ready, and still great for my closed loop setup now I think.
gl changing a part when your done lol
@23:54 When the PRV of the LN2 tank blows off like a 2JZ! Heh, not a flinch, just the uuuugh head turn! Nice shot!
More 3080s in this one room than nvidia released in the US
50:55 Viewers were wondering why this baseline overclock was only 3.8%.
GPU Boost 3.0 already boosts clock speed from 1700 to 1900mhz, so of course overclocking will only deliver small results.
Steve mentioned a guy's GTX 460 and I remembered my 560 Ti. Beast still does 1GHz on the stock cooler
Jesus, I love this channel! We are so lucky to have this entire community; everyone is absolutely brilliant.
EVGA customer support so good that their engineers will call you mid-overclock to give you advice.
Jokes aside I always buy EVGA cards. They do have great warranty and customer service.
Must make these cherry picked cards look their best so the consumer will buy same card only with the lower binned chip that will not OC as well through retail.
@@billwiley7216 but the difference between the FTW ICX BBQ WTF edition and the Eagle OC (one of the $700) models isn't all that much. Maybe a few frames, at best. All for like $110 difference.
Even the cheapest MSRP models seem to have good cooling solutions this time around. They're just power limited in the BIOS. But they seem to be just fine.
@@ChaoticPasta They really do. I was very impressed with EVGA customer service for my old 2080.
@@nedjimb0 what does power limited in bios mean? Is that something that can be changed in the future or?

I'm 60% sure the tanks I've seen have a small switch on one of the pipes that can be turned 90 degrees to the pipe or in line with the pipe to control a valve. in one setting the tank will climb to that ~220psi threshold and then make the loud off-gassing noise. in the other setting the tank slowly releases pressure instead (out of the pipe with this small switch; closing the valve leaves that pressure to build for the 230psi blowoff valve)
Probably not going to get it until fall of next year
That’s probably when it will be back in stock so good timing. Nice to see all the youtubers got all the nation’s stock of cards though because there certainly weren’t any for sale this morning that were actually available for us plebes. Today’s launch was a paper launch shitshow.

They want good reviews and high demand for these cards that nobody can get, to defeat AMD in the marketing game. A disgruntled nvidia employee leaked this information a few days ago, as outlined in this video: th-cam.com/video/SxtfNcm45xk/w-d-xo.html
Six years ago Gamer’s Nexus, helped me out when I was building my first PC. Now I’ve been glued to this channel again since I’m upgrading soon. Thanks for all the work you guys are (and will be) putting in during this launch cycle.
It would be nice if youtube STOPPED RECOMMENDING THIS VIDEO TO ME ALL THE TIME.
I was watching/fell asleep to a video about drones and woke up to this?
Actually amazon has never stocked 3080s Im sure about that
Same here, in the US if you go on Amazon and search rtx 3080 nothing even comes up.
You have to Google search rtx 3080 Amazon to get to the landing page.
Pretty new here. Had no idea you were in NC. That's awesome and I really appreciate the level of detail you provide. This video alone will allow me to make a better purchasing decision. Plan on waiting to see what the new AMD Ryzen line looks like and maybe big navi can compete.
So this is where all the 3080's went.
It's amazing how this is perpetually live!
To the person at 1:37:30 so yes there was a 3090ti eventually, no there is no 32GB of VRAM in it.
3:19:00 I think he was talking about bots buying up anything that wasn't in a brick and mortar store and those stores only carrying partner cards and a very very limited number of them.
I swear AIB partners should hire designers for their cards. Honestly most of them looks terribad. The Strix actually looks the best, and I still don't like how it looks.
It looks the least bad
Yeah it's like they didn't get the memo when Nvidia decided to go from the angled design to the clean look of the FE cards. They clearly just thought "gamers" and made their typical overly aggressive sharp angles.
Rude.
More respect for Steve in that he didn't take any college courses.
I could use one of those 3080s, just started building my new PC so my wife and I can finally play games together after 2 years of waiting. Looks like I'm waiting another 3 months at least. All my other PC components sitting in a corner collecting dust. Freaking NVIDIA/Ebay/Scalpers. Such BS.
If component prices werent so high at the moment I'd say throw an RX 580 in it just to use it but the only used GPUs that aren't overpriced right now are 2080 tis lol
Almost the same. I built my first PC from the last 15 years and have been waiting 1 month already for a good video card for VR. Was going to get a 2080Ti, but couldn't spend that kind of money last month. Then learned they were discontinued, so I waited. Now I wait longer while everything I own depreciates before I can use it.
Don't despair guys. I'm sure Nvidia will have a bunch more in stock just prior to RDNA2 availability so that no one actually switches to AMD.
@@jesh879 Just ruins my plans. I've taken a week of PTO first week of October, so my wife and I can have a week of playing games.... I need a vacation!!!
@@StarcraftGT500 Oof, I'm sorry to hear about that. =(
Can you reschedule your leave?
I only have like two weeks of computer watching experience I’m NOT READY FOR THIS CHANNEL YET lol
3080 instantly unobtainium ...didn't really expect anything else...card prices are rising at genuine e-tailers already and on eBay for £1000++ ... Don't buy the cards from eBay you're just feeding the sharks... maybe we now have to wait for rtx4080 to upgrade our Pascal cards ......or big navi (if the drivers work)...AHH well life goes on.
getyerspn or just wait till consoles and RDNA2 drop, maybe Nvidia will pull prices down to counter
nvidia just wants money, regardless of actual competition (only increasing their prices for mediocre hardware)
LOL this wasn’t a one time stock... why would you have to wait for a new generarion? People are so dramatic, there will be plenty of stock soon enough, probably mid october.
Take a look at his recent video regarding restocking. If you really feel like you gotta wait a whole new generation to upgrade and 3080 will never be in stock and your weekend is basically ruined, you need to rethink your values dude. It's just a card, cards will come. Give it time. Especially now during quarantine, it's gonna take longer to stock up. So quick crying like a bitch and be patient. You'll get your card soon. Unless you don't really need it and you're happy with Pascal, then why comment?
@@KevTheHunter1 He is probably one of those dumbasses that sold his 80 super or 80ti for 300 bucks after the new gen got outed xd
Man alive Steve, that is the longest video i have ever watched!
I did pick up a few tips though. And i am also very glad that i have refrained from spending a sh1t loada money on these last two Gens. I noticed that you made reference to the 1080ti several times.
I have a Aorus 1080ti and it remains faithful and powerful to this day,with plenty of OC headroom also. I'm so glad that i haven't impulsively invested in these 2 gens as i feel now like i would have wasted my money when i already have a 'brilliant' generation of card for at least another year.
You are very educational, but sometimes speak a bit too fast.. But well done for all the tiring effort you put into bringing this content and knowledge to us all! I couldn't listen to Linus's voice for that long, and Jay-Z 2p has too much clowning goin on to sit and watch for 3 nd arf hours!!! I hope you acknowledge this message... And i'm proper amazed at how much money you made in that time.
I dont think there's anyone in da UK that manages to achieve that!? No wonder you put the effort in. I always watch your content. Well done man,and thanks for the money saving tips and tech knowledge 👍🙂
"ordered"/"preordered" the aorus xtreme. I will probably have to wait a for a while to get it
Where did you do this from?
I clicked on the video to tell you guys how much I enjoyed the video's thumbnail, really nice guys, would click again.
@@jameswatkins6875 thanks
4 months later, it is still nearly impossible to get one.
My local computer store received 1 rtx 3080 for launch.....1. Wtf
From now on September 17 will be known as Black Thursday ......
Why wait until the end of November to be disappointed when you can be disappointed in mid-September?
In the city where I live (200.000) citizens ..not one single store had one (Germany)
The employees got the rest.
I think someone said that this is nvidias plan to drive prices up.
I really hope nobody pays any extra of these cards
@Binod Tharu, Don't say that you are that Binod😂😂
Stumbled back across this ten months later. The stock for the 30-series is still a meme lmao
Always has been.
So when you start having a high pitched laugh it will be because of the nitrogen leak from the tank at the back?
Atmosphere is 70% N2 breathing N2 wouldn't modify your pitch as its density is effectively the same.
You're thinking of helium.
@@GamersNexus, True. Was thinking of nitrous oxide also called laughing gas. Great presentation.
That shop is so freaking beautiful
The Ampere cards look like AMD made them in the GCN era:
Lots of computing performance but not utilized fully, out of the box maxed out as far as they go, pushed the performance as high as they can even with increased power consumption, almost zero OC potential.
Meanwhile AMD is removing the unnecessary things from their gaming cards anf going with a more lightweight architecture.
The two companies kinda swapped their approach.
I'm more and more interested in big Navi, because NV seemed to push their cards to the absolute limit even sacrificing power consumption to get the last few % performance off for some reason...and i think that reason is they know Navi will be good.
Ampere is NV's GCN, and Navi can be AMD's Maxwell.
TBH i think people rushing to get a 3080 day 1 are stupid. It is on my shopping list but i will wait for Navi because the more we see from Ampere the more it gets obvious something is brewing on the GPU market.
AMD fan alert. the 3080 is not impressive tho. 3090 will be my buy
@@Icenfyre An overpriced card with 15% more performance than the 3080?
@@Malibutomi I reckon a liquid cooled, fully unlocked 3080 could trade blows with a stock 3090
Thats why I think NVIDIA is limiting power and locking voltage control
15%? sure lmao wait for the benchmarks
@@Icenfyre Leaks are already out. It is 10-15% faster than a 3080 "LMAO"
Anyone with a brain could see that logically. It has 20% more SP than the 3080 hence it could have been 20% faster if the performance would scale 100% with SP numbers...but it never scales 100%.
Steve is naturlly so likeable and entertaning!!
I think he would be a perfect streamer though he seems a bit uncomfortable being live.
Came here to see how does one overclock a unicorn…?
easy, be a sucessful youtuber
you stuff a rhino up its ass
Great stream GN, cool to see this kind of content about new products
NNN pre failed due to know knowing I won’t have a 3080 till next year due to car payment.
Lol at the thud that massive Gigabyte card made when he stood it on end at the beginning of the video. T-Rex from Jurassic park 😂
Sometimes the lack of rational (or any critical) thinking REALLY boggles my mind. Even in this audience which I would have assumed were more clued up than that...
To say it's in "poor taste" to review a card you couldn't get is like saying it's in poor taste to review a Mclaren P1 because most people can't afford to buy one.
The review will always be relevant so when people CAN get the cards, the review will be very useful. Now you might ask "Why not just wait until everyone can get one before you do these things?"
There are 2 reasons.
1. Attention span of the audience - If you wait, by the time you make the content, something newer might have come out and you'll get people talking about "Old news" and "Nobody cares" or "Where is my Big Navi content!?". You can't have it both ways, being upset just because you can't have something is very petulant.
2. Competition - If you wait, your competitors will not wait (other tech reviewers, might not be explicit competition but they all occupy the same space) and you WILL lose out on business which when avoidable is crazy to do.
Most people will obviously understand this but the same sentiments keep cropping up with these cards and the PS5 and it's just so asinine. Scalping idiots will always exist, blame the manufacturers for not making it harder to scalp, not the reviewers for doing their jobs.
The Port Royal record is 13488 held by a 3080 running at 2350Mhz.
$1200-5000 on ebay. LMFAO. No thank you. Ill grab one next year
They dont even have the cards, delivery in over a month so .... Dont know if isnt against Ebays policy to sell some thing you dont own yet.
the inifinite loop of autoplay GN Livestreams after watching two random videos on youtube.
That's why we can't buy 3080 cards, steve has all of them :o
I missed this LIVE but watching it now!
@1:52:00 - Everything's normal. Nothing to see here. lol
lol if that was linus the stream would have to end due to a 3080 dropping head first into the test bench xd
Props to the camera man, he stood there for 3 hours!!
Who cares how they overclock when you can't get them
Why so salty.
Ofc you wont get one in the first few weeks. Just like with any majorly hyped launch of hardware.
1:04:50 did he say... Unlimited... Power???? *insert that quick smile on the Emperor’s face just before he blasts Mace Windu and screams “UNLimited POWER!!!!”
bro steve is so hot
2:59:53 Do those drivers have the rubberized grips that get sticky after about a year?
Not much point in overclocking video's when Nvidia stages a big launch and has less than 1000 cards available!
There were thousands of cards available.
@@GamersNexus I know, you can see them on eBay.
@@GamersNexus REALLY? 2 cards in Vancouver Canada, 2 cards in Edmonton Alberta, Nothing in Saskatchewan, 32 Cards in Toronto and on and on so where are the Thousands? by my count there were less than 200 cards available in Canada
so much enthusiasm in steve's face in the thumbnail
F the mod that timed me out. Lol
very cool channel, glad i found you!
First?
Yep
Somehow, yes
I'm finally whole. I couldn't have done it without you guys. Thanks everyone for the support.
there is NOTHING i want to watch more than this video. ever.
Can i have one of the 3080s I will give you $700 for it
Bruh I got the gigabye one and had to pay 850$ for it retail, nice lowball lol
It is 350 PSI relief valve and yes it will scare the bejesus out of you when it goes off. I used to fill them at Airgas 25 years ago in my mid 20's.
Quick! Let's rush the studio and wrest those cards out of Steve's hands!!! hahahaha!
Dude! Your videos are awesome to fall asleep with, thank you!
Are you being serious or are you just insulting Steve.
@@JnrAUS6 Yes, the voice is like babysitting goodnight story teller
Oh ok lol sorry.
@@JnrAUS6 Yes, litteraly 😴😴😆
Send one of those to England to that mad lad who loves attaching caps everywhere.
That gigabyte eagle looks like the only card of the 3 that actually took the flow through design seriously. The other 2 seem like they did it as a small afterthought. The eagle looks like they just said "Fine nVidia. We'll cut a big ass hole in it"!
Just saw your video. Day you still have nitrogen discharging in a room? Please install them so that they discharge outdoors.
lol yep... the liquid nitrogen tank scared the hell out of me too. I have headphones on and turned up pretty loud, I thought something happened to the card, haha...
Where are you restocking TOOLKIT?
Great video in depth about RTX 3080 video card.
Should one wait a year or so for the entry level GTX cards for this series or buy cards like 1650 super or 1660 if one gets good discounts?
Totally commend you on your dedication in doing all the work you do. Unfortunately what people don't see is the many hours outside of the streamed content that you would be putting into what you do , I personally love watching your streams and I was impressed with the dedication, time and effort you put into the Newegg drama.. well done and I totally agree with you that if Amazon has a decent competitor they will keep each other honest hopefully... Here in Australia Amazon is way too expensive and I can get gear a lot cheaper from Umart and a local store Computer Alliance that usually have some great deals with a coupon 10% discount and free shipping which also includes any other items you purchased at the time.
So I've been wondering why I've seen several ads for Gamer Storm coolers and a couple preview videos as well as the factory tour of them being made, but have yet to see a full thermal review on it. The old ads I believe have only been for the Captain Pro from a year or so ago and they currently have a the Pro V2 out as well as new versions of the Castle line. They look great but I've only found a few somewhat informative videos on them. Results on the older versions seem to be somewhat conflicting in results. Would love a more comprehensive look at where they fit, in a GN Coolers list.
I'm a coder. But i still believe it's more convenient to pull out a coin and flip it instead of typing random([0,1])
We are coming for you Jacob!!! You are famous now!
I'm happy you guys could get some 3080s, so you can inform us on what to do when we get one (:
I had the chance to get a zotac 2080 trinity (I think that was the name) but I'm hoping for an 3090. Does anybody actually knows when we can get the sweet 3090 Kingpin?
Wtf are you taking about? An rtx 3090 kingpin will probably be a $3,000 card.. You really have that money?
YuhNinja I mean, I’m assuming he can, since he’s talking about it. Cause and effect and all. I might be hella broke but some people make bank, and are completely within their rights to spend their money.
Are the big nitrogen cans secured to the wall? for safety they should!
can you do a tear down of the custom cards id like to see the different pcb layouts
