After a month of using the RMA'd 1080 FTW that supposedly fixes this issue I started getting the same problem, was playing Battlefield 1 and all of the sudden screen turned black, keyboard RGB Backlight animation froze and fans started spinning at 100%... 

Having exactly the same issues. Can play bf1 multiplayer for few hours, but then i decided to play some single player - the flying mission - and after first few 5 to 10 mins bamm my second (few days old second card in sli, first is almost 3 months old) card just goes to blackscreen with 100% fans and i need to powercycle. Kinda funny. So looks like it might not be a hw issue with bf1 rather then some software/driver crap. So i guess no SP only hours of MP since this issue has happened only in bf1 SP for me. Played like 2 hours of gta V with both gpus at 98-99% ussage, tried hour of haven 4.0 and even 1-2 hours of Rocket league and so far bf1 SP is the only trouble maker so will just hang back and see how it goes before doing some crazy RMA stuff etc. since the warranty is for 3 years. :)

My RMA card was shipped on September 9th. I'm not going to post my full serial, how do I find out what factory produced it? 

It's the fourth and fifth digit, i.e. 16196 is mine so that's from Factory 96. The last four digits are the serial.
 
My defective card was from Factory 25.

My replacement card was just delivered by UPS about 20 minutes ago so I am very much looking forward to putting this one through its paces and finding out if it really is free of the black screen issue (after reading the posts on here I am less than hopeful). Wish me luck...
 
I also need to send the original one back as quickly as possible so I can get my collateral payment refunded.

Mine is also at home, but I'm at work so it will have to wait :(

It's the two numbers after 161 at the beginning of the serial. 

It's 08

There is a black screen issue with NVIDIA cards apparently in Windows 10 Anniversary Update (v1607) as linked to on the GeForce.com forum in one of my earlier posts but I'll repost it here as well:

This issue has the same blank screen and display driver crash as the issue we are having with the only difference being that the fans on the graphics card do not ramp up to 100%.
 
Are you using the default fan profile (which is off until the GPU reaches 65 C) or are you using a custom fan profile? If it's the former then have you tried using a custom fan profile to see if it resolves the issue?

It happened while playing multiplayer, but as with my first card the issue wasn't there at first, but rather after some weeks of use it just started occurring, might be the same with this card.

Using the default fan profile. The funny thing is when the BS+100% happened my gpu usage on both was like 60-65% and temp were in 65-66 degrees? But like i said so far i had the issue in the SP. Othervise i am at 15+ hours mostly in MP (64 man conquest and operations). So its kinda weird. Will have to try some other games like Guild Wars 2 and Total Warhammer over the weekend to check if it can happen outside of bf1 SP.
For now i didn't bothered with default fan profile since the highest temp i saw on my top gpu is 82 degrees with the both gpus settling around 1911 - 1936 mhz which if think is absolutely fine for me and i guess even for both gpus since it run absolutely fine throw 2 hours of gta V with every crap maxxed out even AA on 5760x1080. :)

This might be why none of the professional reviews picked up on this issue if it is something that happens after weeks of owning the card? In my case, I did not really see a black screen issue until two months after installing the card is August.

I wasn't going to buy Battlefield 1 until later on but I've just bought it to see if I can replicate the same black screen issue in single player on my new card since it seems to have triggered the issue for two people on here.
 
Sorry for asking but if you have two cards then how do you know which one is causing the black screen? Could it be the one that is three months old that is causing it and the new one is actually fine? Have you tested both separately with Battlefield 1 with only one card installed?

When it happened just opened the side panel and i was able notice nicely that the top gpu fans were barely spinning and the bottom ones where spinning like crazy. I mean if it get worse then i will probably get in touch with EvgaEU and do the whole RMA thing or maybe i will just take the gpu back to the local reseller where i bought it and get a new one will see (but this option might be tricky since he might have few bad one on stock for now). And the older gpu is 3 months old so it has quite a lot of gaming hours on the bucket without any issues. No need to rush with RMA atm.
