Guess who broke G80?
As you are all aware, NVIDIA had to recall all Geforce 8800 GTX cards before today's launch to fix a resistor issue. This will slightly delay the availability of the cards. The GeForce 8800 GTS is unaffected and will be on sale today.
According to this internal problem report from EVGA, it seems that they identified the "resistor" issue by using ATITool Scan for Artifacts and then wondered about the errors.

Well done W1zzard :toast: .
according to the test report the resistor problem is that the resistor size allows the over current protection to be triggered during normal use, which is not a heat issue
ATITOOL and W1Z rules :rockout:
does this not constitute commercial use of ATI Tool? Where is your share of the money *G*
