I’ve now had the following GPU owners express they have had shut downs and failures with New World…RX59068006800XT6900XT3080Ti3090So once again, the issue definitely is with SOMETHING in the way the game New World is rendering. This ISNT a 3090’exclusive issue! PERIOD!!

In watching the video, around the twelve-minute mark, JayzTwoCents discusses a conversation he had with a representative for EVGA. When asked what EVGA was doing about the current situation that has arisen, the representative stated that they are already sending out new EVGA GPU replacements to those individuals that already submitted an RMA.

During this explanation, he is attempting to recreate the problem with his EVGA RTX 3090 card while playing the game. The wattage being used was above average, but he could not recreate the bricking even through forcing the card to surge well above the wattage limit (he states that normal levels are around 360 watts where he was pushing it to above 500 watts).
