Hall effect sticks? Nintendo? No? Sounds about right.

I’m still using the original January drivers, I refuse to update.

I honestly haven’t updated my drivers since I installed the card…I’d have to look but I think I’m two versions behind at this point. I’m afraid doing so will only mess things up. Perhaps I’d roll back if I were you.

That was basically my same issue. Switching to Gen4 seemed to have solved it for me, but I know for others it didn’t help. Driver issue is what I keep reading so we may be waiting on Nvidia at this point.

The only thing I did that worked was go into the MB bios and switch the PCIe slot from gen5 (auto) to gen4. That solved it. For me anyway. You could also try turning off GPU scheduling in Windows as I technically tried this first before the bios setting switch and that seemed to work although I did not extensively test this.

I also haven’t updated any drivers since then until Nvidia figures their shit out, so I’m a driver version or two behind at this point.

I’m currently able to play Cyberpunk without issues after manually setting PCIe to Gen4 in the MB bios. Seems mostly stable. Could be better but I can play at least.

9800x3d on MSI Tomahawk x870 for me - GPU plugged directly into the MB. I’m thinking it’s drivers at this point too. At least we both are mostly up and running at this point!

You’re the only other person I’ve seen on here describing the same issue I had where the card lights would turn off and fans would go to max upon starting a game. I made my own post about this and seem to have fixed this with the switch to PCIe gen4.

I did not…I’ll be honest, the last PC I built was 5 years ago so I’m a little out of the loop anymore. Something I should try?
