I can't see his posts (ive blocked him) but don't waste your time with GFAFS. Hes just pissed off beyond repair (which he has the right to be) and isn't going to stop. But despite his right to be pissed the only assistance hes offering anyone is looking to rile other people up to. Thats why he hardly helps anyone and spent nearly every post (prior to me blocking him) trying to get people worried about the situation and their cards. The 2 fixes provided are bringing VRM's down to 90's (with vbios) and 85C EDIT: actually 81C in the video example (with both fixes) respectively. They were already under their 125C threshold and from what (I think it was gamersnexus EDIT: Yes decided to look it up its 2:23 in the video below) reported the data sheets for the power stages are recommended at 100C so 85 is far beyond adequate. Thats not even pointing out thus far that all of that regarded absolute worse case scenarios and 100% constant load on stress testing.

Edit: In all honesty I am more concerned about the VRAM issue atm. I haven't checked to ensure my pads are touching, nor can I do much about it at the moment as im having hernia repair surgery tomorrow and won't be able to do much of anything for a while after that :P Though I would like to see the instruction set updated to include VRAM pad installation considering they will begin shipping those pads with the the other thermal pads next week according to jacob (in the other thread respectively)

Please verify that there is something wrong with the BIOS updates or the card:
It's not that I'm thinking of doing overclocking - especially not now with this thermal issue.
But anyway I do feel that I need to update both BIOS of my GTX 1070 FTW card - because if I sell to someone, it's already fixed.
 
So this is what I have done - and it's the last part that concerns me/is confusing to me:
 
1) BIOS switch in master mode, start PC, perform successfully BIOS master update, restart PC, check nvidia control panel for version. It's the new one, great!
2) PC shut down, switch to slave, start PC, update BIOS slave successfully, restart PC, check nvidia control panel for version. It's the new (secondary) one, great!
3) PC shut down, switch to master, start PC, check nvidia control panel for version.... showing up with slave BIOS version....WHAT!?! Shouldn't it be master?!?!
 
As I said - confusing to me - I'm under the impression that the BIOS version in software should reflect position of BIOS switch.
 
Best regards!!

The judge also has the ability to fine you for launching a frivolous lawsuit and wasting the courts time.
"blowned (sic) up all over internet" does not constitute legal proof as the number of the cases you exaggerate can be documented or verified.
I see a headline "LUNATICS LAUNCH CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT!" and below the sub caption: "Lawyers laughing their asses off on holiday in Fiji"

You're totally right, he can for frivolous lawsuit (50 € max in this case, nothing really), again i'm not worried at all (i'm not the one who need to), i'm more than confident it's not, they are quite sensitive since the Samsung case. I've won a few times with less than that.
 
We will have to wait and see, right.

But you would also be forced to pay the legal fees and costs of the other side.
But go ahead, file your lawsuit, let us know how that goes for you.
Until then I suggest you turn off your computer and go for a long walk and get some fresh air. Maybe look into seeing a good psychologist. Because your delusions that you re a lawyer are concerning. 
You are just another troll.

Sure keep trying, as i already said, i'm not impressed and will not take the baits. Now just for the record I never stated being a Lawyer, but that i will use mine (his name is in the ticket btw).
 
You really should try harder and up the quality a little.

I only descend to the level of my competition. And you haven't set the bar very high at all.
Stop being a whiny baby, you embarrass yourself with every post.

Damage control is definitely not your personal best asset, EVGA should re-think your position, hopefully they will after the episode.
Have a nice day.

Again, the delusions.
I don't work for EVGA, they can't afford me.
I don't control damage I inflict it.
I have been laying waste to incompetent trolls like you for many many years, the interwebz are littered with the unmarked graves of half-assed trolls and White Knights like you that seem to think they have some sort of super hero ability and righteous infallibility spewing their fallacious crap to incite lesser individuals.
So rather than continue to post here in this thread, which is meant to help others to get a fix supplied by EVGA, adding confusion and fear through mis/disinformation, gtho and stfu.
Then you will be doing a real service to the community.
Blathering twit.

Video entitled "How to Install Thermal Pad Mod on EVGA GTX 1080 & 1070" on Gamers Nexus channel.
Just wondering what anyone makes of these comments made by someone named 'acnfanmanin':
 
 
"THATS NOT WHERE YOU PUT THE FRONT THERMAL PAD. You should put it on the HOTTEST part which is ON the baseplate itself. Those things you put on top of are CHOKES which doesnt get hot and dont mind being hot. You want the baseplate to be cold so it can cool the mosfets."
 

"No you're not supposed to put it on top of the chokes is what I'm saying. those things don't need cooling (look at motherboards and watercooling blocks they're never cooled) so you're wasting thermal pad contact area putting it there. You're better off putting it on the baseplate area on the right of the chokes because the mosfets which do get VERY hot are located under there connected to the baseplate."
 
"if EVGA told them to put it on the chokes...wt*...you're basically trying to cool a piece of copper...why"

Well for someone going for the lawyer route (lol), he's not really thinking it trough. He provides anti-evidence by stating regular users are evga employed. Talk to lawyer first, then spout on the internets.

Thanks for enlighting me, keep going. Other paying Customers have a mind of their own and will surely see through.
And thanks for the advise, i'm right where i need to be right now, at least as long as i'm an EVGA Costomer.
 
Feel free to do like Darkheran if you can't take it anymore.
