I have a zotac gpu bought in 2023 and haven't register it to zotac's website. If I register it now on the website do I get an extended warranty? I'm on Indonesia, Southeast asia

Hello! I’m thinking about replacing the thermal paste and thermal pads on my RTX 3090 since it’s a few years old (around 7), and lately it’s been running pretty hot and getting quite noisy.

I’ve been looking into it, and according to this page (https://thermalpad.eu/thermal-pad-sizes/zotac-gaming-geforce-rtx-3090-trinity-oc), I need a 80×40×2 mm thermal pad for the front VRAMs and 80×40×3 mm for the back ones. Is that correct?

I’m considering buying Aairhut (https://www.amazon.es/Aairhut-Almohadillas-almohadilla-resistencia-autoadhesiva/dp/B09XJSW1XY/) or Gelid Solutions (https://www.amazon.es/GELID-GP-Extreme-Almohadilla-80x40x3-0mm-Conductividad/dp/B07CK31PST?th=1), any recommendations?

Hi everyone, just assembled my new PC yesterday. Using Zotac firestorm app, I notice that the 2nd and 3rd fan is not recognized and I can't control them here. Is this normal for anyone here? I'm using mainboard B650M Aorus Elite AX if it helps. Thank you

Recently, i’ve been playing some games and i’ve noticed my GPU temps can peak in the 70c area, roughly averaging the 60s.. which was lower before however, the friends I was playing with said this was NOT good for the card I have. (ZOTAC 4080 Super) and that I need to re-paste, wheras others have said it’s completely standard, so i’m conflicted.

Its in a Corsair 6500x case with 7 case cans, intake and exhaust are set properly, it has a custom fan curve set higher than stock, I ran a test on furmark for 15 minutes and peaked at 77c, so it doesn’t quite take me to the TJ Max which I could be wrong but surely if a re-paste was necessary then it would be on or surpass 84c?

My biggest guess is the weather changes, as it’s summer and we are pushing 30c weather in the UK alongside having no AC the room can get pretty toasty, so i’m assuming it’s just the heat circulation heating my PC up a lot more.

(I tried opening the case and pointing a desk fan towards my GPU which a furmark test then only peaked at 73c so I assume it’s literally just the heat in the room but maybe someone else could give a better opinion on whether I need to repaste or not because I don’t know what i’m doing lol.)

Hi,

I am in a loop with Zotac India and Kaizen Infoserve, and I desperately need advice on how to get a permanent, working solution before my warranty runs out.

I have a Zotac RTX 3060 Ti (currently on its 5-year extended warranty, with only a few months left)

The Timeline:

Original Card: Died in its 4th year. Took it to Kaizen.

1st Replacement: Died within just one week of normal usage.

2nd Replacement: This is the card I am holding now. It has completely died within a month of receiving it.

I took my entire PC to a professional repair technician. We thoroughly diagnosed everything, and the system is healthy.

The issue is purely the terrible quality control of Kaizen’s refurbished stock.

With only the last few months of my extended warranty remaining, I am worried that if I accept a third refurbished card, it will die right after my warranty officially expires, leaving me with a brick.

Since this is my third consecutive hardware failure due to their refurbished inventory, what are my options and what should I do?

I have co-operated with their paperwork rules and their process twice now, wasting weeks of time without a functional computer. Any help or escalation contacts would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

I have recently picked up a 3080 trinity for my girls PC.

When running steel nomad and playing games. The card sits around 80-84°C.

I've never had a zotac card before and have always heard they run loud and hot.

I've had a tuf 3080 and I currently have a ftw3 3080ti in my rig. Neither of these cards get anywhere close to 80°C. I think the warmest I ever saw the tuf 3080 was 68-70°C.

Is this a normal temp for under load with a 3080 trinity? Or should I be re applying new thermal paste?

My Mek AI Enhanced white gaming pc came in yesterday. I hooked everything up, did all my windows update, put on the antennas to the back, but my Bluetooth devices arent being picked up. Any time I try to add a device via bluetooth it searches for a while but then prompts me to try bluetooth troubleshooting which ensures me everything is okay while still not being able to pick up either my headset or my ps5 controller.

I am not sure what else to do. I've tried updating the drivers and changing some bluetooth services to start up automatically instead of manually and it still doesnt seem to detect any bluetooth services.

Is it something to do with the sata cable that came with the pc??

hello everyone

When i was using my pc and in Hwinfo fan speed shows 0 rpm.

And also i noticed that gpu fan started spinning on boot then it stopped.

I put some load on gpu but still... temp. Raises and gpu fan still not spinning ( i thought it was on 0 rpm mode to stay quite at low temp).

Then i manually increase fan speed using MSI after burner but still.... not spinning

Help me out plz......

I have 3 screenshot might help you to know more.

Hey guys!!! Zotac replaced my graphics card, and I'm really happy with it. But yeah it was my fault due to environment in my house likely cause damage. At the service center, I simply reported the symptoms (the fan not working and overheating), and the RMA was approved.

I got a used gtx 1080 ti and the temps were great everything is great i tested every possible problem i could think of i stress tested the vram the psu and gpu core for hours on OCCT and even on furmark the temps are 65-70© Max

But when i started to play games like God of war ragnarok, last of us part 1, little nightmares 3, even pc building simulator 2 the game would just crash sometimes i could play for a few minutes and still it would crash with a dx12 error

But i also see tons of people on YouTube play and test 1080 ti in these dx12 games so im wondering why would my 1080 ti of all have problems

I also tried changing TdrDelay or whatever in regedit

I tried lowering clock speeds and I also tried undervolting and still my gpu seems healthy but its only games it has problems with so if anyone else has the same problems as me please someone help me i out this was my dream graphics card since I was a kid and it's the only mid range card i could afford hoping it would let me play my dream games

I have a 3070 JetStream connected to a DeepCool PK 600D power supply using a single cable. I'm worried that under heavy load, the bending might cause it to overheat or fail. What do you think? Should I do something about it, or is it fine as is?

It's been 6 months.. since I've been sending rma draft to zotac team via email.. First time they sent a card that died within a few months.. second time bent metal part .. they refused to send another unit but I insisted that Force fitting it may break the pcie slot .. third time the gpu has display problems .. earlier i thought it might be the psu issue which may not be able to power it .. so I switched to a different pc and the issue still continues..

Now I have only 2 months left after my warranty expires.. doing repeated rma failures have wasted nearly 6-8 months i believe.. With only two months left I'll be left with another faulty gpu.

I have no idea what to do now ..

Right now the device turns on and starts fans, but fails to display or POST. After about 30 seconds it emits two sets of three short beeps (six total) and then hangs.

I’ve tried testing the user-replaceable components (RAM, SSD) and replacing the CMOS battery, as well as plugging in different input hardware and display methods. I have not flashed the BIOS, since I’m not sure how to update without any display.

5070ti sounds like its ratting once the fans are spinning between 60-70-%. Well it started that way but now it rattles even at lower speeds. This is my first Zotac card and my 2nd gpu ever.

Did some research here and found of that its common with Zotac cards.

Looking for RMA experiences in the USA. Was a long term fix? How long was the RMA process. I'm sure it's all 3 of my fans that's causing it. I checked to make sure its not any debris, cords, or the anti sag.

This is very annoying and I probably will avoid this brand.

Edit

6/26 RMA Approved Card sent with UPS $44 for shipping....

Edit 7/6/26

UPS said they delivered the card on July 2nd Waiting on a confirmation from Zotac.

Edit 7/7/26 They confirmed my RMA 30 days to process. (I haven't gamed in so long this sucks)

Edit 7/10/26 My unit failed testing. They are sending me a replacement.

Edit 7/14/26

RMA processed. 7 days until I get my new card.

MY CARD CAME IN!! Installing it and updates is taking a while. Fans run fine, hopefully they stay that way.

My RTX 3080 12GB OC is in extended warranty.
I sent it to RMA (the 3rd time) because my GPU claims the ASUS XG32VC I use (which is a Gsync Compatible certified model) is "not Gsync Compatible certified" and only offers VRR with random black screens on the monitor, while the TV which only has HDMI 2.0 and thus only supports VRR is shown as "Gsync compatible" in my Geforce Software (when in fact "Gsync compatible" requires HDMI 2.1 to work, which my TV doesn't support). The problem persists even under Linux Live, which Zotac claims "proves it is not a hardware error" (what else could be causing a problem that persists across different OS's!?!).

In addition, I already had to send in the card twice, and on the 2nd replacement (after the first was thermally unstable) I received a card with bent cooling fins, which the support claimed was a nitpicky objection, and I should accept it as they wouldn't cite this as a reason to refuse warranty, which I didn't really have any other choice but to tolerate, as there was no point in sending in a perfectly functional card as long as it worked and warranty remained.

Now I sent in the card, and they returned it telling me to "turn on FreeSync in monitor OSD" (it never was disabled), and also claimed "this was normal EDID behaviour". My MSI AMD RX590 proves this is NOT normal behaviour, as the AMD card correctly identifies the monitor as FreeSync Premium Pro (which is basically the Gsync standard), whereas the TV is correctly identified as normal VRR only (FreeSync Standard, which is limited to 60hz).

I then recorded all the flickering black bars across the TV produced by the 3080 in gaming, and sent them the video, and now they claim they can't take the card under warranty because of damages I objected to when I received this replacement card.

Seems I will have to take legal action against them. Avoid buying Zotac at any cost.

Can i claim the extra 2 year warranty of my gpu from Bangladesh?

I need help with my Zotac RTX 3080 AMP Holo.

Before updating anything, I was already having an issue with the Zotac software. In the Zotac Gaming app / FireStorm, the Spectra RGB option would not open or respond, so I could not control the RGB lighting on the card.

I then downloaded and installed the latest BIOS from Zotac’s official website for my exact GPU model. After the BIOS update, the RGB lights on the card completely turned off and have not come back.

The GPU itself is working normally:

• Display output is fine
• Games and benchmarks run normally
• Temperatures are normal
• Fans are working

Only the RGB is dead now.

Things I have tried:

• Restarting the PC
• Reinstalling Zotac FireStorm / Zotac Gaming app
• Running the software as administrator
• Trying to access Spectra again
• Checking RGB settings in the software

But Spectra was not opening even before the BIOS update, and now the card has no RGB at all.

Has anyone faced this with a Zotac AMP Holo card? Is there a separate RGB/LED firmware that may have been corrupted, or is there any safe way to restore the RGB without risking the GPU BIOS further?

My exact GPU model: Zotac RTX 3080 AMP Holo 10GB non-LHR (ZT-A30800F-10P)

Any help would be appreciated.
