Which is s maximum safe temperature during daily gaming with a GTX 1070 sc? 75° C is High for every game?

Some would say that 75C is fine...Try to change your fan curve if you can tolerate the added noise. Aim to stay between 60-65C

 My only question is, is the return shipping supposed to be included or are we paying that out of pocket?

Why nobody answer about the thermal pad shipping ??? When you buy a top product, you hope this product have high quality so again what happened with the shipment??why is taking so long??why everyone request this thermal pad in october 2016 and you maybe ship until january 2017. 

Thermal pads are shipping daily, shipped some yesterday, more today, more next week. Expect to see it move shortly.

I too would like some tinfoil for my hat.
If you aren't smashing the card with a hammer you are fine with guarantee.
I guess you do not buy anything or this is your first ever big purchase.
You bought this card and now you look at the terms and conditions _after_ your purchase.
 
Relax a little.

I'm sure you know the popular quote "First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win” was it Ghandi's or Klein's doesn't matter.

it was Gandhi, and there is NO WAY someone like Gandhi or his achievements apply to something as inconsequential as a video card. childish.

Got my replacement card today. Impressed with the fact that they were able to send it out so quickly even when being bombarded with calls.
 
I went the cross ship method. My only question is, is the return shipping supposed to be included or are we paying that out of pocket?

I just got off the phone with EVGA customer service and they said that a prepaid return label is provided if you have a advance cross-ship RMA. It should be found in the shipping pouch.

I got my shipment number today (its been a week i think). Also impressed it went so fast. I thought it would take longer.
I was under the impression that they would send us a pdf file with paid shipment information.

In my RMA approved email it says:
------------
RETURNING YOUR PRODUCT/SHIPPING LABEL

1. EVGA does not accept drop-off or will call for RMA.
2. If you are not using the attached PDF label, please visibly note the RMA Number on multiple sides of the shipping box with a marker and ship your product to:
-------------
There were no attachment in the mail so i thought it would come later.

Most reviewers hit that temps using the default fan curve, i say it's completely fine but it doesn't hurt to run it a little cooler. Personally i prefer lower temps instead of lower noises since my case fan is already loud and i use headphones but that's up to you. You could run Precision X e test the aggressive fan curve to see if the noise bothers you or not, changing from default to aggressive profile usually drops up to 10c in my experience.

Can you post the bios file itself so I can flash it with nvflash?
 
I can't use this exe file on Linux.

How long should the bios update take? I pushed y about 15min ago and nothing has happened
