    to be fair, shit only happens if it's overclocked.

      Yeah but it doesn't take much to cause issues. Nvidia already released a statement that was the reason

      They also released a driver update to clock it down if the pull goes over a certain amount

      But with the cards that have MLCC, you really can only gain 20mhz over the other ones

      I'm waiting for the 3070...after the new laptop, which i'm waiting for christmas prices to drop or new models to come out

        Sounds like a decoupling impedance design problem rather than a capacitor quality issue. The POSCAPs and MLCCs have different impedance characteristics.

          That's what it sounded like to me too, but the Internet "experts" will probably decide that POSCAPs (and any other brand of tantalum-polymer hybrid or even a straight tantalum cap that happens to be the same color) just suck for everything.
