Since this is a specific "I don't have a problem with my card" thread, my current card has ran since day one install without a single issue. I also was one of those "I don't have any problems with my FTW card since (insert date)." Than a while later it started exhibiting the BS100% nonsense, I hope everyone posting thus far without issues stays that way.. Only way I found to resolve the issue 100% was to switch to a different brand.

No problem here... But, I stopped buying EVGA custom cards. I have the FE and it works great.

No issues at all.  I will only buy EVGA. Never failed me.

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


It's news because the forum is filled with threads that may give people the false impression that all 10 series EVGA cards are exploding or just waiting to do so.

A thread like this illustrates that the sky isn't actually falling for all EVGA card owners.


Exactly, all the forum talks everytime about 5 or 6 graphic cards...

There is several thousand of cards without problem (at the moment :o ) this thread is here to prove that's not the end of the world..


I only Counted 4 have been reported here on the Forum.
The problem is not going away and our Forum will not go back to being a Great Forum for a Very Long Time.
It seems to be only a Complaining and Bashing Forum from the Few and are Fueling an out of control Fire
The few Need to Stop Dumping Gasoline on Fire and even so the Forum Still may or may not return to a normal state.

I purchased my 1080 FTW on the 27th of July and it went in to operation on the 29th.  It runs at full load at least 2 hours a day and up to 4 most days.  No issue's to report here.
 
I have always ran a custom fan curve on all my GPU's for many years and do so on my 1080.  For me personally I see no reason the flash the new vBIOS, but I did install the thermal pad kit since it was free & easy to do.  I always monitor various temps while gaming including the GPU temp.  I did see a decrease in temp (after the thermal pad install) of 3 - 5C.  Max used to be 60/61C under load, now 56/57C.  Same games, same settings, same fan curve used.

After RMA #1 (artifacts/memory issues), and then RMA #2 for ("a TIM problem"), my third 1080 FTW seems to be very good.  In fact it's freaking me out how much cooler it seems to be running.  I'm not having any problems at all with this card, and it has the updated vBIOS and all thermal pads installed.  It is boosting to 2012MHz and VRAM staying at 5005MHz. I have stressed this card a lot to make sure it was solid, and after about a week of non stop stressing/gaming, it has proven to be a keeper (getting ready to start OC'ing to see what it will really do, just haven't had the time yet -I've only experimented a little w/OC'ing but it's looking pretty good).  Although I do get how frustrating this whole scenario has been - because I was on the receiving end of it, twice!  But EVGA was more than accommodating toward me and my concerns, and I now have a perfect card, which is showing no signs of any probs.  To sit around and worry that its going to fail at any moment or catch fire is ridiculous.  I could also be hit by a bus while crossing the street today.  I'm satisfied now, and my card is doing great.

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

1070 FTW here.
Latest Bios + Custom Fan Curve ( without pads)
Running at 2100/4500 since i have the card and so far no problems. No Black screens, no sudden 100% Fans or something else.
I know it doesn't mean much ( because the important temps are not shown.... ) but Temps are most times between 51-56.
 
Hope this remains so.
