June 2, 20233 yr Super impressed by the technology of this assembly line. Surprised that PowerColor allowed Der Bauer so much freedom. It was pretty cool seeing how they assemble their products, how they benchmark every single card they make for at least an hour, and how 10% of their daily production receives a 24 hour burn-in test is quite impressive. I'm running Nvidia right now, and PowerColor stopped manufacturing Nvidia cards. But I wouldn't hesitate to purchase their products after seeing their level of quality control.

June 4, 20233 yr I ran a Powercolor RTX 3090 last generation. Cards were hard to come by so I bought it. Turned out to be a fairly decent build but the firmware blocked all overclocking and ran fairly hot (~70C). When the RTX 4090's were released I purchased an MSI Suprim Liquid X and did not get another Powercolor. The Powercolor now lives in my wife's PC and is still performing reliably.
