What's going on with the extremely high SERVER Loads? (trying to download Nvidia driver)

Depends on where you are at... but something is hitting the UK (55%) and DE (100%) servers harder than I have seen.

Where are you located?

Alternative, the NVIDIA website.

it's not "extremely" high, looks like a lot of people are downloading the RTX demos

each of those servers is 1000 mbit/s

Thanks, when I was on they were high 90's, like 98%, NL was 23%. Hour plus download times. So I thought I would ask in case there were real problems.

That was the way to go.

TPU,still, Hour+ wait time.

Which server are you using?

EarthDog · Apr 12, 2019

FYI, I could hit all of them (Im in US/Ohio) and could get the driver in ~35s. The UK server and DE server were both 100% pegged too.

Yeah same here from Germany hitting my line cap (50 Mbit) from all servers except US-1 which does seem very slow for me
But when I look at the network interface on the server I see people from Comcast, Russia and Thailand doing well over 30 Mb/s

I was trying the 1st US @ 13% then I tried the others.

Still same HOUR DL time.

Using Chrome Version 73.0.3683.103 (Official Build) (64-bit)

US-2 @ 1% : 20sec download achieved

US-1 @ 10% : Hour DL time.

W1zzard · Apr 12, 2019

So US-2 is fine and US-1 is bad just like in my test.

Also try the EU servers while you're at it. DE should especially fast, even for US visitors, since it's sitting right next to the backbone

US-1 : Still @ Hour

All others achieved success at about 40sec DL's.

@W1zzard
Do we know what caused this? It happened again, earlier this morning.

jsfitz54 · Apr 12, 2019

Still about an hour. ^^^ (AM)

Now down to approx 10 min (7-12 bouncing)^^^ (PM)

W1zzard · Apr 13, 2019

are the speeds better now for US-1 ?

US-1 @ 7% load : DL achieved in 41sec.

W1zzard · Apr 13, 2019

Excellent, thanks, they changed some routing for our server in the data center which seems to have helped a lot

I get this too at times on Firefox, I can't figure out exactly how to replicate the issue but it happens when I'm doing something with quotes and posting and copy-pasting and scrolling.

Can't remember what I was doing when it happened. I'll pay closer attention and chime in if or when it happens again.

I just thought I'd let you know that US1 is slow again for me. I'm able to download from US2 at 20MB/s, but US1 hovers from 65KB/s to about 150KB/s.

I can confirm the same:

Frick · Apr 23, 2019

Dunno if anyone said this, but since the Xenforo switch some browsers (specifically Opera on Android) renders terrible text when writing posts, but only if the scroll bar appears. As soon as the scroll bar appears the text goes all blurry, when it dissapears it's fine again. So far I've observed it on Android 7 on a Samsung Galaxy S7 and the same Android on a Lenovo Tab4plus, on various versions of Opera.

jsfitz54 · Apr 23, 2019

US-1 Server is still way way slow:

EarthDog · Apr 23, 2019

Sub 20s for me at US-2....... normal for me.

US-1 is slooooooooooooow for me as well (also the closest).

This is likely an Opera problem. I just tried it in Firefox on Android and no blurriness.

just don't know what happened but i found this

but after several refresh it run fine

Anyone else having problems in seeing images/thumbnails in some reviews?
(linked big images still open)

Here are some reviews with problems in seeing images:
https://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/CoolerMaster/G550M/3.html
https://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/Palit/GeForce_RTX_2070_GameRock_Premium/30.html
https://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/ASUS/GeForce_RTX_2070_Strix_OC/29.html
https://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/Zotac/GeForce_RTX_2070_AMP_Extreme/31.html
https://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/Crucial/MX500_M.2_1_TB/13.html

Again in this one images work completely:
https://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/Noctua/NH-D15/3.html
So it's not like problems would is only in new or old reviews, but seems to be mixed bag.
