Mine is still freezing with bad static noise so often. 
 
I didn't even overclock and I have latest driver from Nvidia too. I unplugged my second monitor just in case if it makes any difference since original problem of black screen was windows 10 select non-existent monitor as default. That issue seems to be fixed after latest nvidia driver released on 10/11 but my RTX 2080 TI is still freezing. I am pretty sure rest of my pc parts are good cause I never had this problem when I had gtx 1080 ti.
 
Should I just RMA the card?

This is the level of support we love. Classic EVGA. :)

Mine was artifacting like crazy. I ended up RMA'ing it.
 
note, the blurriness is caused by the GPU. not my picture.

I haven't received my RMA yet. Thankfully it's a cross ship RMA with next day delivery.
I RMA'd it on Thursday but it didn't ship till today(Monday).
 
Edit: just saw your other comment. Not unless you purchased the extended warranty and EAR when you registered it!

There was a mentioning in reddit that in nvidia forums there are a lot of complainers about artifacts and root cause is a batch of defective video memory (gddr6 is new adter all).

Do have the Batch Number or a link to reddit that talks about it?

OMG.. That's it. Now it won't even boot to window anymore. It's black screen of death and I can't even make it to windows menu.
 
I took it out of my pc and put gtx 480 I was keeping in my closet for past 10 years or something and my pc is working flawlessly again.
 
It's RTX 2080 TI that's dead. I am gonna RMA it today. This is first time in my 20 years pc building history that I have ever received any defected gpu. :(
 
Hopefully, I get good one for RMA.

Hello Shinobier, 
 
 
I'll be sending you a quick email shortly! Stand by! We'll try to get this issue resolved as soon as possible! 
 
 
Regards,
Thomas N.

I sent you an email. Please send me support ticket # so I can send this for RMA. I didn't expect this would happen with EVGA brand gpu. Now there goes my return shipping. Sigh.. $25 that I did not have to spend for shipping as well as 4 weeks of hardship with this card. I believed in you. sigh.. :(

It's not EVGA's fault. Could've happened with any other card.

So far my RMA replacement is working fine. Wish I had a way to stress test the GPU memory.

Play a game at high res with all the eye candy at full blast.  Better yet, see if there are any benchmarks for the RTX line or use some of the older ones.

How is your RMA doing? I just RMA my card and waiting on a replacement. My 2080ti FTW3 Ultra straight up died on me. Couldnt play any games without crashing within secs/mins.

This chain of events is exactly what happened with my card before I had to RMA it. I mean exactly. it started with artifacts and crashes in BF5 and Heaven. It continued to crash more and more steadily for the next few days. Then it wouldnt boot correctly after a crash. Taking several attempts to do it. Eventaully it wouldnt boot at all with the graphics card installed. I RMA'd it and the new card has been running fine for nearly a month. Fingers crossed it stays that way. Im no expert and cant say Im qualified to say the card is your problem.....but from the sounds of it, you descibed my chain of events exactly from a month ago.

My card's been fine so far! no issues seen the past couple months. I haven't tried OC'ing it yet(waiting on money to watercool it).

inatanz, revert graphics drivers and make sure everything is up to day on everything else is all I can say. Also get in contact with support if reverting does nothing and problem continues. I hate to say it but that sounds similar to what we were experiencing.

I did it last night right before you asked. I was a bit wary because of the same reason. I used the OC scan feature on PX1. Granted its been only a day but it hadn't shown anything wrong yet. It also closed 2,115 MHz, where the old one barely got above 2,000 MHz.

Welp, add mine to the statistic.  After weeks of no problems, just started artifacting out of the blue.

For anyone having issues contact EVGA technical support.

Done, but of course my card dies on a weekend so tech support is closed.
