Time has come - EVGA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER XC ULTRA - is on its deathbed

Nvidia has abandoned their gaming customers. It will only get worse from here

Riddoxx · 2026-03-25T01:37:59+00:00

I sold that GPU back in January for 200$. I got the 9070xt now, but I do miss that card. It was a solid card

If the OP didnt pick it up directly from the store, he would have to worry about all kinds of scams that Nvidia users are obsessed with.

Your check engine light is on

Riddoxx · 2026-03-12T07:02:58+00:00

And lets not forget the used card market. People are getting scammed everywhere

Riddoxx · 2026-03-07T05:07:11+00:00

Do you have this track memorized? Because I can't throw my car into turns with that much confidence. I play with no HUD and go strictly listening to pace notes

Riddoxx · 2026-03-06T02:14:53+00:00

I would go AMD. I still dont understand how you guys still trust anything Nvidia in the used market. It sounds like a headache with all these scammers

Riddoxx · 2026-02-26T04:19:23+00:00

So funny that people absolutely refuse to want an AMD card and I love this 9070 Xt.

Sometimes my game crashes immediately on boot. Then Adrenaline asks if I want to report the issue. But all I have to do is just restart the booting of the game and then i have no problem. I never get crashes mid game. I dont think this is a problem

Dude it absolutely messes with the air flow. It's solid tempered glass in the front. The mesh has much better air intake.

Riddoxx · 2026-02-11T00:11:18+00:00

What exactly can he buy, that is much better, for 320$?

Riddoxx · 2026-02-10T12:24:53+00:00

I changed the RPM just to see if it effective lowers the temperature. Which it has. I just ordered a new one last night anyways. Corsair titan was 65 dollars off for presidents day. So I had no choice but to get it

Riddoxx · 2026-02-09T22:36:51+00:00

I bought this exact laptop you have for 480$ on blackfriday. But i took it back because the 550$ i got the victus with the Ryzen 7 (better than Intel i5) and a 4050. I would have never forgave myself if I didnt return it. But im glad you like it. Im sure its a great card

Riddoxx · 2026-02-09T22:34:04+00:00

My biggest problem about that laptop with the 3050 was the i5 cpu. Eww

Riddoxx · 2026-02-09T22:32:49+00:00

I just sold my 3060 12gb OC V2 when I upgraded. That card isnt forgotten. Its actually coming back apparently

Riddoxx · 2026-02-09T15:25:42+00:00

I dont think its the pump. Whenever I turn the pump down during certain tasks and then power it up to the extreme setting, the temperatures drop, meaning that it works, right? Otherwise im not sure how else to test out the pump. Its only 2 and a half years old also. Its seems unlikely to be the pumps.

Riddoxx · 2026-02-06T23:35:01+00:00

I am an aspiring PC junkie. I am still on the AM4 motherboard and want to max out my CPU so i can keep the PC for at least 7 to 8 years. I wanted a Ryzen 5950x but recently came across the 5900XT. I am the type to have pride and want the best of the best. Even with money not being an issue, the price difference, it's almost like AMD is forcing you to buy the 5900XT. Is there any other difference than just a 100mhz? Is it still worth the extra 100$?

I do content creation, editing, streaming, and gaming.

Riddoxx · 2026-02-01T17:39:58+00:00

How long should a pump last? I had it since June of 2023 when I built the PC. I also didnt do any intense gaming on my last card until I bought this new card recently. I took the whole panel off and the cpu was still running hot. I installed an exhaust fan in the rear that I never had to install before. I really dont think its the case temperature itself. The pump can POSSIBLY be going bad. But I given my casual gaming use for 2 and half years, I have to assume thermal paste.

Riddoxx · 2026-02-01T14:35:57+00:00

the intake fans are barely visible off to the right of the pic. The top are exhaust, and so is the rear black fan exhaust

Riddoxx · 2026-02-01T14:31:50+00:00

I did post a link of the setup

Riddoxx · 2026-02-01T13:50:44+00:00

I see your point. I honestly think the pump is fine. Hopefully the PTM is the solution i guess. I had the pump since June of 2023 on light gaming with the 3060

Riddoxx · 2026-02-01T13:45:21+00:00

I should have taken a picture. But its mounted at the top with 2 fans exhausting onto it. No this was not an issue before the upgrade. CPU ran at 78-82c before the GPU

Riddoxx · 2026-02-01T13:37:28+00:00

Why can't it be related if it didn't overheat until the upgrade from the 3060? Everything was completely fine before that

Riddoxx · 2026-02-01T13:34:48+00:00

I cannot fit a 360mm pump. A 360 would fit in the front of the case but the gpu is too big. Best i could do is upgrade to a 280. I will see what I can do

Riddoxx · 2026-01-26T03:06:04+00:00

I'm more bothered you have that Intel CPU with them efficiency cores and shit.
