1070  ftw dt got it Oct. 31 put it in the rig for folding at 2113MHz  o/c an has run since then with fan at 100% temps have never went over 50 degrees

this is my third EVGA video card but my last. I have optd out of the RMA process and decided to get a full refund from the retail seller since the card was less then 30 days old (only lasted 2-1/2 weeks). Thank god I had this option a never ending RMA process would be very disappointing. I went back to my poor running 970 card that was also disappointing.

So far i have not had problems with my card, I hope it stays like this!

I got my 1080 FTW RMA and the card is running ALOT cooler then the one I got on preorder.
 
 I was getting temps of 82c when playing BF1 but with the new card with thermal pads it does not go over 62c

Are we going crazy? This post is totally irrelevant, a correct operation is what is expected of a high-end product that costs about 500-700 €. It is not news that a graphic card works the way it is expected

This thread is VERY relevant; it shows who has a working card. If you want to complain, there are a lot of threads already doing that. Go there and rant, or better yet, create a support ticket on the evga website, and just unload onto the EVGA tech about your card being a paperweight; that's why they are there, not come on here and troll someone's thread because they are happy with their card, and you are not. Again, this thread illustrates who's cards are working, and I really hope EVGA is paying attention to it.
 
Edit: Actually, I want to edit my post and state that all y'all crying about your card not working, you all need to rant to EVGA techs and/or complain on other thread that are also ranting about their cards not working. Asinine complaints on a thread that compliments their card working does not belong here. I am requesting that all moderators remove such posts as it does not relate to the topic of this thread.

My Two GTX 1080 Cards have been running 7x24 @2012MHz+ going on 5 Weeks now Hitting Temperatures as High as 84C.
I have them Set with Fans @ 98% and GPU Clock @ +190 and +200 Set 120% and Temp to 86C Priority Set to Temperature.
They Are Great Cards

 
  Thermal pads will make them run 20c cooler.

Just got done playing Star Wars Battlefront with my son for 8 hours straight. No issues, I've been keeping the PC off until we installed the new thermal pads, which arrived Thursday. Nice to actually use the $2500 PC now for what my wife and I built it to do, (gaming and media streaming) pfft!  Haven't played anything since I sold my SLI 970 FTW 2.0+'s last month. Glad to see a thread like this, especially with all the negativity around here lately.

If it's possible to precise if you have pads or not pads...

Of course, it's more relevant to post here if you dont have pads on your card I think...

I want also prove here that not having pads is not the end of the world and thats there is a lot of cards without pads who works like a charm :)

Like mine...
 
I'm gonna create the "no pads club" 

Mine was problem free for a month with just the bios updates, no additional thermal pads until last week. The Fujipoly stuff I bought was more like putty, so I don't think that counts....

Ran through the entire FoldingatHome TimeZoneChallenge over on the Distributed Computing Forum without the thermal pads and the card performed like a champ. Pads are installed now so I feel safer but never experienced any issues, artifacts, etc before the pads were installed.
