Known Issues & Fixes

Issue	Solution / Fix
Some users reported the 192-bit memory bus feels narrow compared to previous-generation 70-class cards, raising concerns about VRAM bandwidth at 4K resolution.	Not a defect; the card is positioned and best suited for 1440p gaming, not native 4K, where the narrower bus has less impact.
A number of owners noted the price increase over the previous-generation RTX 3070's $499 launch price felt steep for a similarly-tiered card.	Not fixable; reflects NVIDIA's pricing strategy for this generation. Compare performance-per-dollar against both older and newer generation cards before purchase.
