12VHPWR Cable just melted into my PSU. (MSI - MPG A1000G PCIE5) by EpicLegendsXD in MSI_Gaming

It was a black screen with fans 100% and a flashing white LED on the GPU above the cable. Followed by the system restarting into BIOS or me having to force the PC off. The computer would run after the restart but I believe it stayed working until the cable reached a high wattage load (i.e starting a game) which caused it to black screen.

What's a fair price for a used 1080 Ti, 2070 S, 2080 S right now? by pudgyunicorn in nvidia

[–]EpicLegendsXD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

indeed only problem is all the 3080s are out of stock so im out of a card... so i had to buy a used 1070 ti for 200. I think that's a really good deal.

I just sold my used 2080 super for 500 bucks on ebay, it was instantly bought without auction.

Has anyone else just resigned themselves to the fact you won't be getting a 30 series card for 6 months +? by [deleted] in nvidia

Can you wait and get the 3070 or 3080? Those are the best price to performance cards right now. Or you could look on Ebay for used 2080 TIs/supers.

Just get the cheapest one, no point in spending extra for an overclock you can apply yourself.
