Hey,

I flashed my GTX 1070 FTW primary and secondary correctly and double checked everything. But I got still the problem that the fans in the primary bios, which should be the "non-aggressive", are spinning at idle. Can anyone address this problem or tell me if evga is on the case?

Did you restart the pc after switching the bios?

Yes several times but the problem still exists. I tried to correct the fan curve, but the fan curve behave the same as on the secondary bios.

I thought about to reflash the bios but I am not sure if this will solve the problem.

You better chech the bios info really close , I flashed mine the first time to master and download the master file. When it was done the bios was flashed with the slave bios I don't know how it happen but it did. So I redownloaded it and did it again. It worked. 
it should be  86.04.50.00.70 Master only
 
If you have any overclock ultility running make sure to default them back. You might have a fan curve setup that loads at startup.
 

So far so good. My GTX 1070 SC was getting checkerboard crashes at stock settings (usually within 15-20 minutes) and so far I've been able to game a bit longer than the past 3 crashes. Will do longer gaming sessions this weekend to verify the issue is gone.

I was running my Slave Bios with 122% Power Target and tried Flashing both, 6276_1 & 6276_2 (86.04.50.00.70 & 86.04.50.01.70). Both Bios Versions only allow 112% Power Target, whats wrong?

i just noticed that my 1070 FTW main bios now has 122% power limit and fan spinning at 20% also... like the second bios before flashing...
gpu-z says BIOS 86.04.50.00.70 so it is the primary
 
do you have the same issue???
 
tried rebooting etc..

Tonight I tried to flash the BIOS (6173.zip) again but it was as well without success.
My card is a EVGA GTX 1070 SC and everything looks like it probably should.
The screen flickers and then stops again but if there should be a sucess message I don't get it.
 
This is what GPU-Z looks like before and after the attempt:

If you need any further detail for debugging, please let me know.

This looks like you may be on an AMD platform, if so please contact us directly first 888-880-3842, you will need different update first. 

Guys one quick question please. Cant seem to adress the problem anywhere.
 
My GTX's 1070 FTW Fans are ALWAYS spinning. GPU Load 0%, GPU Temp 28 Degrees Celsius, fans ALWAYS spinning. Have not overclocked it a bit. In the Precision XOC evertyhing is at default.

That sounds like you are on the secondary/slave bios....it defaults to 20% fan constant.

EVGA_JacobFThis looks like you may be on an AMD platform, if so please contact us directly first 888-880-3842, you will need different update first.

Thank you Jacob. I am indeed using an AMD platform.
But Is there any other way than calling evga?
Of course I could do that but since it would be a call from Germany I'd rather find a cheaper solution than having to wait in an us phone-waiting-loop. ;)
 
Thank you!
