Hey there,
 
My 3080 is making a rattling sound coming from the fans, depending on fan speed. Has anyone else had this issue? Could it be bearing related? I looked inside my case and it doesn't look like anything is hitting the fans, as it would be a constant noise at that point.

    Looks be fan number 3 around 50-60% fan speed, noticed it being fan 3 because the latest update doesn't cycle down the fan until I load the default profile.

    I have the same exact issue. It's the number 3 fan. Have you solved it?

    It's simple. Go to the "my evga" Page on eu.evga.com and click on "start a new RMA".
     
    There you put your details. That's it

    Didn't mean that. I think I wasn't clear. I meant how much time does it take them to approve the RMA, ship it back etc.

    That depends. In my RMA case I had the first contact via Facebook with evga on a Friday. She suggested rma'ing my card and cleared everything. Monday I gave the card to the Post, on Friday my new card arrived. 
    So the actual exchange took 5 days
