Mine is slightly different than the others in that it hasn't happened in game yet. Just when I exit, and those fans are loud too. Of course I have not play WOW which seems to be a main one. 




That might just be because that's what people play. The first time I had it was in American truck simulator, attempting to buy a K200 in the shop. It happened 4 times in a row, so I thought it was the truck and deleted it. But then it started happening in WOW, after wich I started browsing here....
 
It might be easily reproducable in ATS with the K200, but I haven't tried it since.
 




I'm having it happen in Thief 2013 as well. In fact, the first go round, it black screened to 100% fans right in the game starting menu (as the menu has 3d rendered backgrounds)

Thus far, I've had it happen in Overwatch, Battlefield 1, and Crysis 3 (and Squad IIRC). In Overwatch, it happens after an hour or two of playing if I have the framerate cap set to 180. If I have it set to 120, I don't seem to have an issue (or haven't played long enough). In any case, if I stress the graphics card hard enough it always crashes eventually.

*sigh*

That's "black screen with fans to 100%" #3 for me. Looks like I'll either have to RMA it and risk getting a card sent back with the exact same problem, or ship it back to the retailer and ask for a refund. It took ages for me to save up enough - almost $1000 CAD - to buy this card. It's the first "high-end" GPU I've ever bought, so it's extremely frustrating to finally be running games in max on 60FPS only for the card to consistently crash :(

I can also report I have the same problem. Via Email support, I was told to submit RMA request at  and they will arrange a courier to sort the rest out. Nice! However, every time I apply an RMA request, I get an error page that the request cannot be submitted and the EVGA team has been notified. How annoying!
 
Anyone running in to this issue? Nevertheless I will keep trying. 
 
On a more interesting note, the support reply said the following: "we will arrange courier to collect the card from you. Once we receive the card , we will advice our RD have firmware fixed the issue and send back the card to you ASAP."
 
So is it a firmware issue or hardware issue? Mind you, this ticket came from Taiwan support (I think). I seriously hope that either way, this issue gets sorted.

Glen20, out of curiosity what has been your speeds on the RMA card you received? Have you noticed a major change with how it looks overall (card)

GhostCamp,

Your situation sounds a lot like mine. I did do a driver update and I have not had issues in games that I play. The only issue that I can recreate with 100% success is in Sky Diver 3DMARK.
