    Wouldn't touch a gigabyte GPU with a 10ft pole even if it's 50 cents.

    Yes and??? It's when it's working is not the problem.

    It's the fact they wormed their way out of selling a defective product that has the potential of damaging your motherboard and then denying a valid warranty claim due to a design defect on top of it.

    I have heard nothing but horror stories for YEARS out of gigabytes RMA process. Deny deny deny. Accept return then do nothing and return it 3 times in a row. Give another customers defective used card in hopes it will work on your system.

    Tech channels are dropping sponsorship by them and Asus for a reason.

    Just completely shameful. It should not be rewarded.

    Just saying that considering my apparent "luck" having two cards that never gave me issues, I'd take the 50 cents deal for a top card from that company :D

    I'm sure you would use the defective gigabyte PSU they were giving away in the GPU bundle.

    Doesn't mean it's smart.

    While it doesn't negate RMA issues and the like their Radeon cards don't have that PCB carve out that their 30/40 series seem to. Unsure why the PCBs would be better designed for AMD, but maybe they're just using an "older" design or some such.

    There's a reason why not many want a Gigabyte product and it is somewhat justified, I'd say.

    That being said, I think this is the right price point of all 7900XTX'es. I'm sorry to say this, but given the kerfuffle around their VR performance, I can't say these are worth their price to me.

    When my 5800X3D & 6900XT duo outperforms, consistently and with no questions, people with 7800X3Ds and 7900XTXs, it can't cost more than the 6900XT in my eyes. At least for VR enthusiasts.

    AV1 encoding support is nice and so is the 24GB VRAM, but they need to fix the VR issues for me to recommend this to any enthusiast.

    EDIT: Maybe there is hope?

    They've merged their testing branch and have relased the VR fixes now. I'll ask friends to give them a try and report back, since no decent tech-sites review VR. *wink wink*

    Regards.

    I'm holding out until the 7900XTX is $799 and they fix VR.
