So A few days ago I posted about my issues with a 1080 FTW Hybrid. Would not allow any system to post.
Finally got through to EVGA but because I'm located in New Zealand (And I am sure they will be really low on GPU's) They have told me I need to replace my card through my resaler. I would prefer to do this, however there are no 1080 FTW Hybrids left in the country, Let alone the retailer. I have a close relation with the retailer and they noted that the majority of the 1080 and 1070 cards seem to have problems (Old stock) The only cards they have personally found to work well were the founders version which I don't want to touch due to throttling issues.
I'm wondering what other people would suggest. I haven't had to deal with this before with EVGA but I understand that they are having a lot of RMA requests and the Hybrid cards are pretty new on the market. However there is no real information on when NZ will get a new shipment of these cards. It's been 2 weeks since I got this card and obviously I don't want to sit on a brand new card that doesn't work and end up waiting another 6 weeks for an EVGA RMA only to get a refurbished card back. Been without a working system for 3 weeks now and I am really getting desperate to get back up and running
