Review on GIGABYTE REV2 0 Graphics WINDFORCE GV N306TAORUS by Adam Wojtczuk ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A really necessary purchase, Im glad I found this product.

Acquired on 12/11/2022. Produced at a factory in China on 08/08/2022. The video card is mediocre without antlers and leadership claims. I was looking for an old Monitor 27 "144Hz. I took, in fact, what was left on sale from manufacturers who have my respect, at a price below 100k, because I don’t consider this situation on the market normal. I searched at all sites in 2022 and abroad. I didn’t buy it through Yshka the supplier threw it, but directly without intermediaries. I suppose to use it for 5 years, but as it goes. I have a Full-Tower case, well ventilated, I don’t worry about overheating, it is possible to put two more propellers, if anything. Pros and cons I described, but this is the first impression and I compared it with the leader in the 3060ti line from Asus ROG O8G 2022. This is my first video card based on an NVIDIA chip. So far not impressed. In the process of searching and installing drivers between different versions, I watched the picture float in a wave. After installing the latest driver and rebooting, everything leveled out and I have no complaints about the image. 12/12/2022 Raised the values ​​​​by 2K (2650x1440) at 143 Hz, The temperature jumped 90.5C. Fans became audible, 90mm small for quiet operation. Aligned the settings according to the advice from the Internet, the temperature dropped to 65C. Lethal temperatures are 90-110C. I doubt that it is possible to overclock it significantly, with a factory cooling system. UPS 650W - squeaked that I can no longer. The power consumption of the PC + Monitor has exceeded 650W. We need to look for a new UPS of at least 850W. Hope it was helpful. If you have any questions, I'll answer if I can and post pictures.
