Has anyone bios flashed their 3080?
I just hooked up a msi 3080 trio x, but it's running so slow 82mh
And I read the fix is to flash the msi suprim 3080 bios onto it, but I've no idea where to begin, anyone done this before?
I'm still looking thru reddit hoping for a tutorial
Edit: Found a tutorial! Yay

Aww I thought coinbase didn't charge anything for transferring to PayPal, while they technically don't charge a fee, they still hit you on the exchange rate from btc to cad
Oh wait I think I just hit the mark of btc dropping 
Edit again lol, I thought I was moving to my PayPal when all I did was send crypto to my other email omg

I don't think it has set in for most people that Elon Musk is the richest man in the world.
When the richest man in the world tweets about something, yeah, it's going to cause massive movements.

Elon buying it is one thing but Tesla buying it makes this way bigger.

What kind of VRAM Temps are you hitting when mining? On a stock 3080, I was seeing 100C-102C. With a Core temp of roughly 61C.

Mining operation on the mid-coast with its own dam giving it over 90mw of basically free power.
That is one commute if anything goes wrong though. https://www.oceanfallsblockchain.com/ | |

Pre ordered 2 Gigabyte 3080 Gaming OC cards from this US site. https://www.shopblt.com/index.shtml . $799 US each plus shipping. Total $1,730.79. Will probably have to pay taxes and duty on top. They are getting them in stock on the 21st.
