I’ve never visited the site before so I just assumed it was just malicious, but as @zdanger said, it might be a hijacked legit site.

I do use uBlock. It also didn’t ‘feel’ like an ad. I now expect the site was compromised as you suggested.

Thanks for that. I also didn’t know about that shortcut until now. It will be very helpful 👍😁

I can’t actually make it copy 😅 I’ve now also tried in Firefox and Chrome but it still hasn’t worked.

Thanks, that’s very interesting to know. I assumed it was just a malicious site before.

• I think it would be best if it isn’t clickable

I’ve also noticed, it doesn’t always come up but let me know if it does for you.

You’re probably right, I should maybe just buy a cheap one. I wondered if maybe some of them are known to use better components or have less coil whine but I don’t think anyone has checked this yet 😅

I agree the reference design is called that because the other manufacturers base their designs on it, but these cards are using exactly that design - without any changes.

Sapphire

MSI

Gigabyte

AMD

Thanks for your answer.

Please forgive me, but I strongly believe they are reference cards. I’m referring to the cards built by those different manufacturers, but still using the reference design - all having identical pcbs and coolers - the cards that all look the same, despite having a different brand on the box.

I don’t mean the cards that are designed by those manufacturers and look completely different.

Thanks for the great answer 👍😁

Do you consider sapphire to be morally responsible compared to others? Also, I’m curious, is there a case of one being responsible for a drought that you’re referring to?

Thanks. I’ll consider that. What makes you decide one manufacturer is better than another?
