I have 2 of them for 5 days now and I don't experience these problem. Is everybody have a problem with this or just a small group of people?

I am quite sure it is confined to a relatively small number of cards, but we don't know how many that actually is or how many 'batches' the problem is known to occur on. Make sure to test the software that is known to cause the problem - I was able to run most benchmarks and games for hours without a problem, but Elite Dangerous would crash within 20 minutes of normal play and within 5 minutes if I 'tried' to make it crash. 
 
I have not checked WOW myself but I understand that is another trigger, and also the Witcher 3 which I also did not try.

Ugh I'm happy and sad to find this thread. My 1080 FTW has been doing the exact same thing and I'm glad its not just me. I'm in Canada so I can only imagine what fun I'm going to have RMA'ing this damn card. Oh well email sent to support. Or is it better to just create an RMA? I would think you would want them to be aware so they just don't send you the same faulty crap.

They are aware. That's why people are speaking well of their support (specially in this issue).

Yeah they already replied which was good and I'm making sure they send a new one or at least one that has been tested for that screen/fan issue. Fingers crossed!

Just make sure to come back here when you've received and testet the new card and let us know how it went. :)

Of course! I just wish I had looked into it sooner I was just dealing with it since I hadn't had much time to game during the summer and I'm just over my 30 days..do'h

Last friday I picked up a MSI gtx 1080 gaming X. I have been testing the entire weekend, including playing The Witcher 3, Rainbow 6: Siege and lots of Battlefield 4 - not a single problem. Unfortunately it 'only' overclocks to about 2000mhz steady ingame, but when I first start the game when the card is 'cold' I see boost frequencies of 2084mhz. I think I will buy an EK block for it and watercool the card to maintain high clocks.
 
It just feels so much better to enjoy my new card, then to nerviously wait for it to crash.
No regrets. 

i've had my card for about a month now.  suddenly i'm getting the no monitor signal after game-crash, and fan speed ramping to 100+% requiring a power recycle.  confirmed it was my gtx 1080 ftw edition card by installing a backup gpu.  could there be a link with enabling dsr factor via nvidia drivers?  how many people experiencing this have enabled dsr factor?  anywho, armed with this thread and the response from evga directly, i'm returning my card to microcenter for a replacement.  once i do this, i'll post back with my results.

Got confirmed from support that my third card will be sent today and it will be a new card. so thats atleast good.
 
I tried asking for a GOW4 promotion key, for all the hassle but no such luck :p I guess they dont have them floating around.

Any idea how long does it take from the time they receive the card until they send out the new card? They received mine last Friday base on the courier tracking but the RMA status only got updated today.
