Already a week ago, it was found that the lack of liquid in the vaporizer chamber was to blame for some series of these cards, which were poorly manufactured. The result is that the heat cannot spread fast enough and the cards overheat. At the same time, these have passed quality control, because they are tested in a vertical position, where the problem with cooling does not manifest itself. Although AMD representatives claim that the problems concern only a small number of cards, there is information that the number of complaints should reach a really high 9-11%. That’s a very high number. This is followed by another problem in the availability of replacement cards. AMD does not have enough cards available for which there is a solid interest, to which is now added the need to secure not only cards for those interested in buying, but also replacement cards for those claimed.

However, it was discovered a few weeks ago that everything is fine with the cards placed vertically, but if they are stored horizontally in the case by default with the heatsink facing down, the problem starts. The case continues.
