Dear Rabb02,
 
I can confirm that Debug mode will help to stop the crashes until we can have the card replaced.  I am showing that you have a RMA processing for shipment and that the tracking information will be emailed to you later this evening.

Is debug mode the only Fix? I'm still getting black screen and fan usage at 100% Issue is getting worse. I do have an RMA but not being able to use my PC while this is fixed really isn't an option for me and honestly I'm starting to get irritated.

I too now am having this problem. Please help! :D

You need to go into the NVidia panel > Help > Debug Mode every time you restart your computer.. I thought it would stick through reboots but it doesn't. This might be your problem?
 

So has anyone had this issue start on them after a having the card running fine for a good while, or is this something that is making itself apparent within a week or two? I've had my 1080 FTW since mid-July and haven't had any issues with my card. Hopefully I'm out of the woods on this one. I feel for you guys having this issue.

Both of my 1080FTW:- straight out the box, day one > run Heaven bench for 15min > crash + Black screen + 100% fan.
To get my cards to do this issue in Heaven with out fail all I had to do is run Heaven with these settings:
API: DirectX 11
Quality: Ultra
Tessellation: Extream
Sterio 3d: Disabled
Multi-monitor: Disabled
Anti-aliasing: off
Full Screen: on (tick)
Resalution: 1600x900 <---(lower resolution bumps the FPS up)
 
With those settings the fps goes high and within 15-20 min the black screen happened on both my cards :\

How are everyones RMA card overclocks?

I can run synthetic benchmarks at 2000 core but some games crash. Had to lower it to 1974 core. Kind of crappy but I guess it is what it is.

seems like most of the 'fixed' cards are running at lower clocks, so far..
it would be nice to know what evga is doing for the fix...

To everyone experiencing this issue. 
Where did you get your card. I believe it might be helpful to see where these cards were sold. Since it was a "small number" of cards perhaps only certain vendors had them. 
Thanks!

Built my computer on Monday and only today did I realise I wasn´t alone with this problem. Have a ticket and where asked to call support tomorrow in EU.
Gutted, this is my first venture with EVGA and are on a schedule for work where I need my card.
I´m  in Sweden and got it from a Proshop.se (danish company)

im having this problem as well evga offered me a replacement for the card but the problem stopped happening so im still not sure whether to do the RMA or not im just waiting for another crash to set my mind straight and apparently this problem is happening with wow to me and many of u out there !

See that's what is strange I can run those settings on mine for hours on end even with the core bumping up to 2025 (or so it claims), but when I try Elite Dangerous it crashes in 20 minutes without fail. Once I turn on debug mode almost all instability is gone, but I have to use afterburner to lower the clock speed and set fans to maximum to get 99% stability.

On my second 1080FTW and today after having it two weeks just got a black screen and fans at 100%.
 
My first one died though after 31 days. I woke up to find the fans spinning at 100% then. PC was sitting completely idle. Card never powered back up after that. This is really sad about this right now.
 
Emails Tech Support. This is obviously an issue and needs to be addressed. Something is wrong with these cards.
