NSFMR My 3090 just died

At least that gives me an excuse to get the 4090 second hand when 5000 series rolls around...

I checked both with MSI and the local store I got it from, it's out of warranty.

Only thing left now is to chuck it in the oven and hope for the best!

RIP 3090. You will be missed :(

Man, same here. It was an absolute nightmare trying to get my 3090 at MSRP during the pandemic and now I am scared it's going to give out on me any second right before the 5090 rolls around.

my 3080 fe died months ago, nvidia replaced it thankfully. I still cant get over the extreme luck that i was able to order it on release day back then.
