Thermal Throttling with the 1080

I don't get why they would prioritize throttling over turning up the fan. It never got above 70% until he set it manually and when he did it made a real difference.

Haha, Nvidicucks have been on suicide watch ever since the 1080 got released. AMD wins yet again.

I'm pretty hyped and want one desu fampai
but I'm not switching from a 980, much older model
so

so why not just let the fan scale up to 100%?
the card would probably never hit 80° if the fan was running like it's supposed to

I've only ever had Nvidia cards but I found out so many disgusting things about that company that I will switch teams over to AMD.
Their shady business practices are beyond despicable and the only excuse for still going for Nvidia cards is ignorance of that fact.
They collude with developers to sabotage AMD cards so that a 300 dollar AMD card performs worse than a 250 dollar Nvidia card with unseen and unnecessary tesselation all over the place just to slow down AMD cards.
Or the lying about specs and features of coming cards. Or the deliberate gimping of their older cards with new drivers so people buy their newer ones.

Fuck Nvidia. I never bought an AMD card but Polaris will be my first. Fuck Nvidia. Never again. I hope AMD conquers back a sizable portion of the market. 80/20 for Nvidia is a borderline monopoly position and stronger competition is always good for the end consumer.
