Hi, thats me again. Here already was my thread, here it is:
http://forums.evga.com/FTW-1080-failure-m2532201.aspx#2532201 So, i understand why my FTW so HOT. There is two troubles, trouble n.1:
1) The GPU chip is bumpy (or uneven, i dont know how to say right), as in attached image, and it isnt contact with the cooling radiator well, also i think what its whe reason of bad overclocking abbility, cause some parts of chip is hotter than sensor show (and its show HOT), cause they dont touch radiator. How such chip was passed QC? And the chip also changed the colour after the few mounts of work
2) The memory chips isnt in contact with thermal pads on thermalplate, as in attached picture shown. I cant take a photo of this, cause its difficult in such place with such macro-things, but i take a photo of unassembled card - you can see, what the VRM parts and one of memory chips is wet of cooling pads, but other memory chips is dry.
What can i do with such videocard? I bought it in "Computer Universe" of Germany, but i'm from Russia, can i use my warrianty to change this card to other one?
