Does this have something to do with the UEFI on the cards and the regular BIOS on the board?
 
Anyone else running into sleep problems using these cards on an X58 mobo?  Windows 8.1 has been giving me intermittent grief to begin with, but at least when it went to sleep when using my prior 580s it resumed correctly every time.
 
Any insight would be great because this is a rare combo and Grandpa Google hasn't been much of a help at all.

    600, 700 (including TITAN) series have issue resuming on X58 boards. It's a wide spread issue and likely a BIOS issue...which means no likely fix either given the age of the platform. I've just resigned myself to using hibernate. I also upgraded from GTX 580's  and S3 sleep worked fine on my E758 board while using them.

    Ah, just found the thread on the 600 series forum relating to the issue.
     
    Kepler + X58 = no S3 sleep / resume ...
     
    That's painful.  I was hoping to ride out this same platform for another 3 years yet, but the lack of S3 will certainly test me.

    A SSD for the boot drive helps immensely.

    You said you've resigned yourself to hibernation - I just thought about that myself, but a typical cycle of S3 sleep/resume for me prior to this dilemma was about 10 times a day.  
     
    Flushing my 12 GB of RAM to SSD 10 times a day is waaaaaay rougher on it than I want to be, even doing it once a day is more than I'd care for.  You apparently can't push the hibernation file to a different drive, either.
     
    Thoughts?

    Hi, It's bit time to late to reply on this thread but..
     
    You can't make S3 resume with EVGA X58 Motherboard. I had "EVGA X58 SLI LE" time before and it have problem with S3 resume.
    Currently I sold my mobo and got "ASUS P6T6 WS Revolution"(Another X58 mobo) and it have no problem with S3 resume on Windows 8.1. (GTX TITAN)
