...at least the 3060 I just purchased registered without a hitch so it wasn't part of that batch .
The irony of it all is that EVGA know what was nicked and have made sure that all warranties are voided..
Don't worry, the contents of that entire heist are probably in a mining farm as we speak. (Unfortunately the LHR cards still mine faster than their equivilent GTX 10X0 cards.) And of course the mining farm opperator does not care about registering the cards, that will be done by the second owners after they enter the used market in a couple of years.
This probably isn't much of a loss since they wouldn't have been available for purchase anyway.
I have an alibi... several, in fact...
Actually, I was in church the whole time...
Helping orphans... and blind puppies... or something...
I was definitely not connected to this terrible deed in any way... definitely.
Absolutely.
Also, I've forgotten how to drive trucks and am morally opposed to the purloining of electronic devices.
I'd totally never do anything like that.
Just in case anyone was wondering.
Me thinks thou doth protesteth too much.
So, how can we get one of those RTX's from you?
You'll never prove anything.
I was miles away at the time.
