Again I encourage you to make a formal complaint
Here's the link:

Just did this too, as well as linking Jacobs tweet.

Not good. Looks like evga unpinned this thread. 

I haven't seen this thread in the pinned section up top for some time now

Just found this thread, same problem here.
The 86.02.39.01.90 bios is loaded, power limit set to 127% and still caps out at 117%.
 
 

Wouldn't there be a resistor on the GPU to prevent it from taking in 127%?

Complain officially in the complaints section a few posts ago. Register your card. Tweet to @jacob_evga or whatever his name was I quoted and ask them to fix this asap on twitter

Six months with 500+ replies with no 'real' answer .......... hmm...... move on.

Superbxxx

We all spent a lot....no.... we are not moving on!
 
I think most agree with me that we want a solution. An update is bios, a new card, equal or superior, etc ... but we want a solution!
 
 
 
Well, i just got the answer from evga regarding my complain:
 

Your Answer:

Hello,

What Jacob F (our product manager) has said on the forums is still the case, this is a driver issue, not an issue with the BIOS or the card itself.
Nvidia has identified the issue and is working on a fix, they have not provided any type of ETA at this time.

Regards,
EVGA

Nvidia in this moment:
"Let's first launch all the Volta cards, then we see what to do about that power issue on the EVGA Forums that have more than 500 replies".

Yay. Very cool.

To add, like the majority of members on this forum I have owned so so many EVGA products.

And I was really close to buying a msi trio 1080ti.. if it was in stock at the moment I would of went with it since the reviews were so good with the air cooler.

That was my thoughts when I was exchanging my first evga ftw3 1080ti that struggled with 4k! Dancing clocks thanks to the power limit!

Now i know why it struggles so much at 4k and not at 1080/2k.. uses less power. No power limit 1 coming up super early causing nvidia boost 3.0 to dynamically lower the clocks to yoyo mode!

Ftw3 right now = for a loss!

Handicapped card that cost $150 more then the nvidia founders edition that runs more power and has way less phases at 7+2 compared to the ftw3 at 10+2.

I'd say since the kingpin runs correctly with there other bios made available to correct this same issue.. why not exchange our cards with That?

Or save a bundle and release a simular 0 power limit bios to correct this issue on the ftw3?

Even the extreme watercooling oc vbios on the 1080 ti kingpin gets limited at 131% if you push the clocks hard enough...
 

 
Note: Both runs are on the 8k preset in unigine superposition. Right side is using slightly less memory clock.

If IT is indeed a driver issue, wouldnt it be a case on all 1080 ti cards?

Maybe, but nvidia could be pulling some shenanigans with the drivers.

That gives, is three someone on Linux here and would be able to check official NVIDIA and Open source versions od drivers?

Hi. I join the request to fix the issue of power .. I have an ftw3, where I sign for the petition or the complaint?

https://www.evga.com/support/suggestions.asp

Both master and slave should hit 1.093v. I've heard of one other with this issue.

What clocks are you seeing with maxed out power/temp and voltage sliders in pxoc durring benchmarks or games with v-sync tuned off.
