EVGA eLeash Installation

EVGA eLeash is an optional accessory that allows for perfect positioning of the new EVGA GeForce RTX™ 3090 Ti FTW3 Series, preventing GPU sag and keeping your graphics card always at the right position. Learn more at www.evga.com/a...

Lol

[@Nothinglastsforever]

Holy crap. A suspension cable.

[@Crismodin]

Half of me is like okay this is legit of course, this is innovation. The other half of me is like okay this is a day early April Fool's joke, right? Unfortunately this day and age it's hard to tell.

[@iMakeKnviesFly]

No it’s legit I just got a 3090 ti from microcenter this is included

[@savethechicken]

@@iMakeKnviesFly I came here to say this just got an email that this will be included with the FTW3 3090ti

Should have posted this video on April 1st.

I thought that's what it is? Surely Can't be true!

[@chartabona]

Give it RGB, call it the RGBeLeash.

[@STARSKY1313]

Okay this might not be a bad idea actually if they made it look kind of like a Lian li strimmer

[@1stormseekr336]

I love the fact that you get your own tiny block and tackle set.

[@LnDSuv]

Cool! Now I can take my GPU for eWalk!

[@Razear]

Seems like every manufacturer will have to include a solution like this with the 3090 Ti because the weight is such a big issue.

[@evaone4286]

From kick stands to a dog leash for gpus. Maybe just make a card that doesn't sag and break the mobo slot. Maybe work on that as "innovation" cause what you got now doesn't cut it

[@Mildly_Amused]

They could put on a tiny cooler that doesn't weight much and doesn't effectively cool the GPU. The GPU would overheat and thermal throttle. Then you would be happy because the card wouldn't sag.

[@evaone4286]

@@Mildly_Amused you know what, a tiny cooler would be perfect. They have years of technology they are hiding and I'm sure they have newer tech that runs at 1/4 of the temps and overall weight of the current generation cards.

[@TheHavocInferno]

@@evaone4286 no, that's not how physics work. Heat needs to be dissipated. More heat needs bigger coolers. You can't cheat physics. The only way to reduce the weight of the card itself is to move the heat somewhere else before dissipating it. I.e. watercooling. Which just puts the heatsink (radiator) somewhere else, but still needs similar surface area, weight and volume as a comparable air cooler. There is no "hidden technology" that can cool this kind of heat in a much smaller form factor.

[@evaone4286]

@@TheHavocInferno You don't know what technology they have. I'm 100% positive they have way smaller cards or just technology in general. New tech doesn't mean tech that consumes more, heats more, is heavier and is more expensive. It's about going smaller and we can clearly see that move in the industry. You're being very foolish about the whole topic in general, do some research and you'll see.

[@sean8102]

It's not really EVGA's fault the 3090 Ti is a power hog (500W+). They didn't architect the chip. Thats on Nvidia and if the rumors are anything to go by the RTX 4000 series is going to be a major power hog. Honestly considering how much power this thing draws its impressive it gets the temps it dose at the noise level it dose (according to the review from Gamers Nexus).

[@Rygar_]

@TEAMEVGA - Are you guys planning on making the Power Link Adapter for the 30 series cards at all ? :) As I thought that was a really neat idea and looks a lot cleaner. As I have the 3080 Ti FTW3 and requires 3 x 8 Pin connectors so please could you include this If you decide to make them. Cheers.

[@Antykain]

Does the EVGA eLeash unleash extra FPS as well? I can see how it would, just want to be sure before grabbing such a innovative product. 🤔😏

[@Ontheregz]

How would a gpu support “unleash” fps????

[@Antykain]

@@Ontheregz not sure if this is a serious question.. how would it not!? 🤔

[@paskowitz]

This is a very intelligent solution. Just include a GPU support bracket.

[@zakizdaman]

this is cheaper

[@JohnAldenGeronilla]

EVGA reinforced the bracket plate as for JayTwoCents recommendation. So, there’s no need for GPU support bracket.

[@paskowitz]

@@JohnAldenGeronilla If it's not needed, why would they include this fishing line support string crap? Also, Jay is an idiot. Half his content is him correcting his own mistakes.

[@ToadyEN]

Should rename is the L Leash cause this is a massive L

[@rodturner6759]

Ooof, I love EVGA my 1080Ti FTW3 still going strong, but that is very tacky looking, sorry.

[@KC-bg1th]

Mine is starting to fail; flickering and occasional artifacting have delegated me to playing games with low GPU usage. I need it to last until 4000 series comes out. Haha

[@spi-killazinc9750]

@@KC-bg1th how long did you have it for?

[@KC-bg1th]

@@spi-killazinc9750 I bought mine at launch, so I've had it for about 5 years or so. I still think I'm going to go with EVGA for the 4000 series, since their QC seems to be one of, if not the best. When spending that kind of money, I know it's shitty to worry about failures, but in general I just have bad luck with my tech. The fact that my GPU has been failing for about a month now, but can still perform daily tasks, and play low GPU usage games should be viewed almost as a testament to how it won't give up, rather than it dying.

[@evaone4286]

Unless you're overclocking, the a gpu should hold for quite a while

[@KC-bg1th]

@@evaone4286 Basically this. I was just unlucky; I never overclocked for this reason, and probably because of that my card didn't die a lot sooner than it is. lol

[@seankwong2686]

My GPU is on-leash. Others comment "your dog's name sounds techy"

[@AKTechIT]

It's real...my 3090ti needs the pulleys.

3090ti only, Hope that comes in the box, in the very very expensive box

[@WLS_Churchill]

If i take my time to manage the cable to hide them it's not to put a fuckin cord in the middle of the computer ! Sag bracket exist for a gooood reason

[@The_Boctor]

Was going to say, "cool, more junk to take out while cleaning." But that'd really describe the whole card, too.

Where can i buy one?

[@bakagamingcommentary]

at this point all the gpu above rtx 3080 need come out box a gpu support bracket as 3 slot card becoming the new normal.

[@SpuriousECG]

Here I was thinking graphics should be unleashed, not leashed! :D

[@Coolman6564]

Love eVGA and have/will always buy their video cards. However, this is hilarious IMO... rather than address the way overdue overhaul of whole card heatsink and IC solderability to stop killing cards, "here, strap the thing up to your case!". nVidia really needs to think about redesigning/mirroring the whole card so the thing faces up, and we can use backplates that would actually help the rigidity in the direction that its needed. This is a hilarious stop-gap though... you know, assuming you ever get the privilege of spending $2k for one of these before 2025 :)

[@snowbind]

To invert the gpu would require a huge motherboard redesign in most cases. GPU sag has been an issue for decades and enthusiasts have been making supports for a similar amount of time. Heat dissipation is hard and is mostly solved through surface area. There is not a lot else that can be done for people choosing to run on air.

[@Gremlin256]

and none for 3080 FTW :(

[@Evil_Xuevil]

why without rgb))))

[@E9oK9kMaV]

now my rig can actually have a rig.

[@ROPname]

I like the innovation on the idea side... but don't like the looks it brings. Needs to be more aesthetically pleasing, to sit well in a case. Maybe a well designed pulleys and gears look?!

[@CommentsAllowed]

When I heard the card came with a free eLeash and patent was pending, I thought it was something more interesting than a support strap. I mean, come on, eLeash as the name? Sounds like a security thing, like a car LoJack.

[@Zoranurai13]

Probably a pole with double sided tape would look nicer
