@realcouri Since you said you like these.
Amusingly despite there being a huge surface exposed cave system all around it, I don't think any of it connects to the stronghold. So only the surface exposed starter in the river does.
Tested and it was 1.17.1, ignore the 1.16 in pic.

So which is it NVIDIA, is the whitepaper lying?
I'm guessing the ECC is actually always there, but RTX PRO cards actually get the reporting wired out to software while on GeForce it is silent?
Odd the whitepaper explicitly says no need for a toggle and then it's there...

I think I can finally stop flooding everyone's timeline with Amazon crap - refund confirmed (for original amount, so still over a grand short of a new 5090).
Though of course they have to go out with a bang - support guy straight up told me I am free to sue them if I wish to.

Yeah I noticed.
No I won't contact your shitty customer support any more than I already did, you have heaps of chat logs and a very angry email to still reply to @amazon :)
Aha, finally something noteworthy.
Quite a "coincidence" to finally get an update on the RMA after weeks of silence right as I sent a very long email listing out all the issues and threatening legal action.

"We will contact you on Monday"
Monday: nothing
@AmazonHelp can you tell the Amazon DE "repair team" to stop ignoring it? This has now been escalated for the 4th time over 3 business days with no response.
"We are unable to help you" perfectly sums up customer support nowadays
Of course no email after 24 hours.
Reached out again, was told I will receive a phone call within 2 hours.
That also did not happen.

"Yea just hit us up on the 23rd and we will refund you because this is absurd"
On the 23rd: "Give us 24 more hours"
RMAs with random small CN resellers on eBay is less effort than this
I wonder if they will even refund the self-ship cost, sent the shipment invoice 10 days ago
15 working days and it is still in "waiting for you to ship" status.
The GPU arrived at the @amazonDE repair shop 11 working days ago according to DHL tracking, wonderful.
Support told me to "just wait until the 23rd and then contact us again, oh btw only refund is possible" 🙃
Adjusted it by like half a mm, about as level with the case/fans as I can get it.
Second pic is how it was before, very slight but noticeable, the angle and phone lens in the original post made it look worse than it actually was.
Thanks for pointing it out!

Went through the hassle of actually following up on the request and filled out a form they sent me via DM.
You can't make this shit up I swear...
We're sorry that you haven't received the item back at this point. Please let us know in a short DM and let us know if you have been told to wait to the 23rd of July, so that we can avoid misunderstandings. Please ensure not to include any personal or account related information via X. -Sandra

Monitor so strong the 5090 died.
Hopefully @amazon actually replaces it (since the repair success chance is basically nonexistent, seems like a dead core), since a refund will still be over 1k€ short of a new card.
5060 laptop (decent proxy to desktop 5050 given this is a lower power laptop variant)
Complementary Potato 24 chunks
1440p 147 FPS
3K dualmode 116 FPS
4K 81 FPS
6K 35 FPS
Without shaders 6K is like 200ish or more and tbh at least in MC the high res is really nice to have.
