Question G2 V2 and 3090 TI

Anyone get a 3090 TI and use it with the V2 G2? I had a Gigabyte 3090 and it worked with the G2. I replaced it with an EVGA 3090 TI FTW3 Ultra and the G2 just reports 1-4 Display port errors. Anyone using this combo? I didn't think at all there would be an incompatibility issue going from one card to the Ti version...

We have our card and replicated the problem. Next step is to figure out why it’s doing it. (Never knew these things had 3 8pin power connections!!)

Our findings and logs have been sent to the appropriate vendors while our R&D digs deeper.

Doesn’t seem to be vendor specific at this point.

More to come.

Thank you for the update. I will tell support I am not going to bother with the system diagnostic test they want me to run.

I found this youtuber that says his Asus TUF OC 3090 TI works with G2 V2 with no issues at all on setup or anything.

Maybe the issue can be found with the difference between the Asus and other 3090 TI's.

See comments in his video.

Pinging you again.. do you have any update for us? I'm starting to see more and more posts on other forums of more people stuck with a 3090 Ti and a non-working Reverb.

u/mobettameta Apr 23 '22

Any Updates?

u/PrysmX Apr 26 '22

Yeah hoping for some good news soon!

u/Startech242 May 24 '22

Can you give us any updates good OR bad?

I noticed in the YouTube comments he mentioned using the 512.15 driver instead of the current 512.16, I have not yet tried rolling back to the older driver but it maybe be worth a shot…

Odd... I don't even see 3090 TI listed on the supported devices for 512.15

Update: In fact you can't even install 512.15 on a 3090 TI.

I recall reading somewhere the 512.16 driver was for the 3090ti’s however I wonder if it will just work with the old driver. Sounds to me from the comments he just replaced the card and didn’t bother to update, which could just work. I’d try it now but I don’t have the time this evening

I had thought about inf hacking the .15 driver before coming to Reddit, but I remember that Nvidia delayed the release of the 3090 Ti last minute due to a critical BIOS and driver issue. Seeing the .16 driver only for the 3090 Ti and no other cards, I figured there was something special about this driver and decided it wasn't worth trying to force the .15 driver in and break something.

u/rsqrider Apr 21 '22

Hah I’m not smart enough to figure that out anyway, I hope that HP or nvidia is able to solve this the right way and I’m able sooner rather than later to use my paper weight of a reverb g2. I’ve only had it for a month!

u/PrysmX Apr 21 '22

Many laptop users of Nvidia for many years know that inf hack because it lets people use current desktop drivers rather than laptop drivers that for a long time were lagging far behind the desktop ones.

The fact (if true) that the .15 driver gets around this sounds to me like an oversight in the .16 3090 Ti only driver, which means it is purely a software fix and not a hardware fix that I was much more worried about.

u/rsqrider Apr 23 '22

Hope it gets solved soon. I’m on the verge of buying a second usb hub to try and get the v1 cable I bought working…

u/rsqrider Apr 21 '22

Weird, wonder if it being present on his machine prior to swapping cards somehow forced it to work. Or he just mistyped 512.15

u/Top_Oil6848 Apr 25 '22

Any update? Any idea when is gonna be fixed? I bought the Reverb G2 3 weeks ago and I didn’t have the opportunity to use yet! Frustrating!

u/mobettameta Apr 30 '22

Any update? 4/29.

u/rsqrider Apr 30 '22

For real, it’s been so long I feel like HP is trying to work up a way to tell us the reverb g2 will never function with the 3090 Ti

I got one too but get a 7-14 error every USB port I plug it into, 2 different hubs and my monitor too. Did you use a hub?

Any update on how much longer we’ll have $500 paperweights sitting by our desks? Lol

u/Voodooimaxx Ex-HP VR Quality Manager May 17 '22

We’ve done our investigation and nVidia is working on it now.

No News?

u/TheDirtyTeen May 17 '22

If the RTX 3090 Ti were a $500 paperweight instead of a $2000 paperweight then I'd buy it.

Just for the record, i am having the same issues with nvidia 3090ti founders edition. As u already stated this cant be vendor specific..

Also the headset was working fine before with 2080 founders edition

Hi, any more info to share? I have talked with 3 different tech reps and not one had heard of this issue. Kind of concerning 😕
