I've tried Precision X1 - the latest bios update for the card was back when ReBAR was enabled. Regarding debug mode, will it write a log file or is it some kind of "safe mode"? Or I guess my question is, once in debug mode, what will I be looking for? If it crashes while it debug it definitely is the hardware; if it doesn't then it's probably the driver? By the by, this began to happen in 466.77 and continued during 471.11, and the new 471.41. I've tried all three of them driver versions and it keeps happening. I actually reverted to 466.77 which is what I have installed right now.

Hello, there. I've was lucky to get a spot on the 3080 XC3 Ultra queue and have had the card since November last year without a problem... until now. About a month ago I was playing HotS (Heroes of the Storm) when the screen suddenly went black. I could still hear my teammates on discord, they could hear me fine, but apparently I disconnected from the game. At first I thought it was a driver crash, but the screen never came back. I had to do the one finger salute. After a reboot I rejoined the match and all was well for a few weeks, when it began to turn into a common issue. It happened at least one time during the first match of every game. Since it got annoying, I took a look at the Event Viewer to see if there was anything there... but no, there's nothing. (Yes, there is, something about a webcam frame server thing... but it is not related.) HotS is not a GPU demanding game - more CPU heavy. Eventually, it happened randomly several times a match. Then it began happening in FF XIV, Cyberpunk, and more; to the point that now I can't event start up GPU heavy games. I have a 5900X with an Asus Strix X570-E Gaming. I had recently upgraded the BIOS to 4002 which supposedly helped with the USB problems 570X's seem to be having. I have all the USB ports populated and indeed, sometimes the USB DAC would disconnect. Thinking that was the issue I rolled back to 3604 with which I had not had any problem other than random USB disconnects.The GPU issue was still happening - actually, I'm still on the 3604 BIOS; what I did is I disconnected all USB devices I was not using to see if that helped. But no, it didn't. Then I went and changed all PCIe lanes to Gen 3, just to be sure. Nope, problem still there. Then I took the PCIe NMVe drive I had, making sure to just leave the GPU plugged in. Problem still there. I have a secondary PC I use in my living room for couch gaming and VR with a 2080 Ti. So what I did was put the 2080 Ti on my main PC and the 3080 on the living room PC. Uninstalled drivers with DDU and installed them back on. And I have not had a problem with any of them since. This living room PC has an AMD 3600 and an Asus 470X-I. So... the only variable I think I have to check but don't know how since I don't have spares around, is the PSU. The main PC has a EVGA SuperNOVA 850 G2 from 2016; the living room PC is an ITX system, so it is rocking a Fractal Design Ion SFX 650G. Which is interesting because for a second there I thought the "small" 650W PSU would not be enough to drive the 3080. Oh, and on the main PC I have a 4K display, while the living room is using a 1080p TV - I know, I know... I need a TV upgrade... I don't know if the TV not demanding as much power from the GPU keeps it from pulling too much power. Anyway... is there a way I could pin point if the 850W PSU is the culprit? I don't want to needlessly buy a PSU in this current market. I wouldn't think 5 years is out of a PSU's lifespan but I don't know what else to point to. Because if it's not that, then I guess I'd have to RMA the GPU... which would be a bummer. Thanks for any advice! Edit: Oh, and yes, I have always used two separate cables to plug the GPU to the PSU Edit 2: Just in case, I have 4 sticks of 8GB Crucial Ballistix 3600 MHz DDR4 running at... 3600MHz, hah! No overclocks there. Heck, there's no overclocks anywhere, not the CPU nor GPU. I tried running the RAM without DOCP which puts it at 2600 MHz, and even tried only using 2 sticks since I know having all 4 sometimes make computers misbehave. No change on the GPU issues.

I know, right? That's how much I like him, hahaha. People can bash Nvidia because of Gameworks, or WB for Arkham Knight... but nooooo, it's a thread about Trump that makes me come out of lurking. Hail Hydra!

Heh... I'm Mexican, and I like Trump For reals. I might not agree with all migration policies (no surprise there, I like visiting your country. But don't worry! I'm not an evil Mexican; I've probably paid more in sales tax in Texas than I've paid in Mexico in my lifespan), but I really like his attitude. I think the world would be a better place if we could all speak our minds without worrying if someone out there is going to be offended. Oh, and I don't care much about the wall in the border, though. I mean... I have a wall and electrified fence around my house to keep other Mexicans out

Hey there; So, I just got my RoG Swift from Newegg two days ago. I have to say that I am very pleased with it! I guess I had never noticed how bad the image quality was on my VG248QE until I got this baby. In any sense, I'm wondering what are the recommended settings for the monitor; particularly the ULMB. For the moment, I have ULMB set to 75% in 120Hz mode; I have to say, though, that on the UFO Test page I do see some ghosting, is that expected? Also, I downloaded the ICC profile from TFT Review's database and I'm using it. I saw somewhere that adjusting the Digital Vibrance in the Nvidia Control Panel is recommended to get somewhat better colors when using ULMB. What I'm wondering is if this profile is right when using ULMB, or if I should look for one in particular for when ULMB is activated. The G-Sync is... woah, amazing. I have been playing Alien Isolation and it looks great! My 980 handles it well and keeps it over 90fps at 1440p. I must say, I'm in love with this monitor!
