    Gigabyte RTX 3070 8GB Gaming OC video card problems


    Hello everyone,
    I bought a Gigabyte RTX 3070 8GB Gaming OC video card.

    GeForce RTX™ 3070 GAMING OC 8G Key Features | Graphics Card - GIGABYTE Global

    I made sure it had the latest firmware installed: 94.04.25.40.83 and I also installed the latest NVIDIA GeForce Graphics Drivers: 461.09 WHQL.
    The card on the side has Gigabyte lettering that glows in all colors.

    I use Windows 10 Professional edition preview release (the latest one), however every now and then while I am using the PC, the mouse arrow disappears, after which the screen goes black and I have to restart the PC.

    As a motherboard I have an Asus Prime Z940-P with the latest firmware installed (v. 1601) with 4 16GB RGB memory banks each that light up in color.

    To manage the lighting of the DIMMs and the Gigabyte writing on the side of the video card, I use the AORUS Engine program (with the RGB Fusion 2.0 program included), however sometimes when opening the AORUS Engine program only the drawing of the 4 DIMMs for managing the color of their lighting while at other times (but not always) it also appears under the color management drawing of the Gigabyte illuminated in color that is present on the side of the graphics card, however sometimes it is present and adjustable, while other times it does not appear not even.
    Can anyone explain to me why?

    Also, someone can recommend an alternative firmware to the original Gigabyte, but working, with another that improves the performance of the graphics card and its stability, but above all does not send it to reset?

    Thanks in advance for any answers.

    Hello bud

    If you could give me your power supply maximum amount of amps that it can carry on the 12 volt rail and also how many things you have connected to it.

    It could just be a small bios memory and cpu balance at given stock cpuid.

    Then we can talk about if there are any ways the machine is being overwhelmed by unrestricted devices using far too much power and taking advantage of what power you have and leaving you with **** all

    My concern is with the OP OS choice.....the "Preview Release". This could be the under lying issue across the board. I wonder if the OP would use the normal OS...

    Let me read this again Plankton thank you hang on man i will be back

    - - - Updated - - -

    Ok so i wonder where the initial AORUS was downloaded from?

    This is something that confuses me... Ok

    If a machine is running full blown UEFI, meaning no compatibility, all Motherboard GUID type, then surely and really it should only ever let software to work which is x64 bit. If not then this pulls a little joke on the whole UEFI bollox because mainly, RGB is not 64bit, its 32bit, even 16bit, so couldnt be compatible with UEFI for any given god. Anything on Windows that runs anything other than x64 bit, isnt a true 64 bit machine.

    IPv4 for instance. Isnt 64 bit and only thru the flow of GUID firmware does it work. Ive managed to get my Nokia Lumia to tether IPv6 on a 2g network to a Windows machine and it will only work if the CSM in bios is disabled. On an older machine you must disable Legacy USB support for a UEFI machine to fully support all of its Software.

    I cant think of much else Plankton. Nice to see you anyways bud been a long time for me on here

    Have you tried other VBIOS for that GPU?
    Video BIOS Collection Gigabyte RTX 3070 8GB Gaming
    But be very careful, first BACKUP your original VBIOS, you can brick your card, if you not sure what VBIOS you need, ask HERE.
