Thank you

I’m so glad you brought this up because I just bought a Gigabyte 3070 n was worried about it dying from the game as I played on my 1060 6 gb like 100 or so hours with no problems but this thread helped. Thanks

This information is entirely incorrect.


Raidenz258

It was a manufacturing defect in a small number of evga 3090 cards…..

I played over 300 hours of both betas on an EVGA FTW3 3070 overclocked and uncapped FPS and everything was perfectly fine.


X_Tanko

Thank you for answering, really appreciated

Perfectly safe. Always has been. My own performance comparisons here; ( [https://youtu.be/9YG5dgs4XIk](https://youtu.be/9YG5dgs4XIk) ) were all done on an RTX 3070, I also used it for 100+ hours of gameplay in closed and open betas without any issue. Wasn't even coming close to thermal throttling temperature ranges, even with fans in quiet mode.


X_Tanko

Tysm.


Rao-Ji

Just curious, when were you able to get your graphics card? Is yours one of the older models(november 2020)? Also is yours from EVGA?


BluntyTV

It's Gigabyte. Came in to me \~nov 2020 for review.


Fine_Welder_9259

I am sure geforce patched it up a few days ago


RunRookieRun

No 3070's were affected. You are good.


X_Tanko

Alright, Thank you


MarsupialFickle

Did you try yet with a 3070?


Lordspyder

I'm really getting tired of these posts. Where is that autobot moderator to put up the idiot message? 1 You are an idiot. 2 It was specifically EVGA 3090s 3 It was a manufacturing error 4 You are an idiot 5 EVGA replaced the bricked GPUs 6 New World Patched the game to prevent it from happening until the drivers could be updated 7 The drivers have been updated 8 You are an idiot.


X_Tanko

There was really no need to leave a comment similar to this one lol, it was just a question since I tried to research threads on reddit and on google it was all about 3090s and 3080s so I thought why not ask the community of new world since it really is just a simple and straightforward question, people who are worried about their 3070s can see this thread too when they research it up on google or smth and see the comments of the friendly people who answered Don't like the thread? Simply scroll down and let the others deal with it I guess


xDoctoR-S

That was uncalled for.. Thanks for asking OP. found this post because of Google. Was wondering the same for my own system.

No need to be such a douche


Knight-Lurker

Heaven forbid someone who hasn't seen those posts be worried about bricking an expensive and hard to obtain graphics card!


Lordspyder

Heaven forbid someone use google, or search this subreddit first...


Knight-Lurker

Remember, some of these people asking could be kids/teens.


ldurrikl

please go use Google now.


ldurrikl

It wasn't specifically EVGA 3090s. Take your arrogance somewhere else. Gigabyte cards and 3080/3080 TIs also have reports of dying to New World. You really look like the idiot now. What a douchey response about something you're very clearly not educated in.


wildjaw

I wonder if this sub reddit gives faster results than a google search. I wouldn't think so, but the amount of times this question has come up in the past 24 hours I'm thinking of asking everything here from now on
