We're reviewing the PCB quality of the RTX 3080 Founders Edition to determine whether it's worth it to buy the NVIDIA model instead of partner models (from a PCB & VRM standpoint).
Sponsor: Gigabyte Z490 Xtreme Motherboard on Amazon (https://geni.us/zSNdGq)
In determining the PCB quality, VRM efficiency, capabilities and layout of the power phases, MOSFET, and capacitor quality, we can better make a call on whether the Founders Edition PCB is worth it as compared to reference and aftermarket PCBs. The VRM quality somewhat dictates overclocking potential, especially on high power consumption devices like the RTX 3080 and RTX 3090, and also determines the efficiency of power delivery. The unique layout of the VRM on this board is also no accident, so we'll show why the RTX 3080 cards often have the VRM split on either side of the GPU.

This stream does two things: One, we're testing frequency vs. temperature GPU Boost scaling, two we're overclocking the RTX 3090 FTW3 on air to see if it's useful for an eventual competitive card.
We are low on inventory of our 1 Million Subs limited shirt. Grab one while you can! store.gamersnexus.net/products/limited-gold-foil-1-mill-subs-shirt (you get something cool, high quality, and get to support our further test equipment purchases at the same time. Thank you for 1 million subscribers! It's been a crazy ~13 years since we started the website, and a crazy 11 on YouTube).
We will be using the EVGA RTX 3090 FTW3 for this overclocking effort. We will also be testing the RTX 3090 Founders Edition card for frequency scaling versus temperature (not overclocking, just GPU Boost alone).
