If you are rma in the card through evga, you wouldn't lose any accessories anyway. You don't send accessories back when you rma.

But, again, it should still be a brand new card in a brand new box. Hopefully Jacob can verify for you.

Warranty policy states New in box OEM.  Guess that will have to do.  Only other alternative is to do RMA with Newegg...send back FEDEX ground...want for them to turn another card around.  EVGA has me set up for cross ship.  Decisions, decisions, decisions.

Yeah...I asked about the rebate...told me to send in the original serial sticker from the original card.  Not so sure I care about that now.  Just want a fully functioning card.

If it is cross ship, the new one will arrive before the old one goes back.

I am a nudge about this stuff.  You know how I take care of my products. 
 
Best I could tell while on the phone with Aaron is that when they put the card together, they jammed the male LED connector into the female...I couldn't get the plug out because it feels like the female was never correctly attached to the PCB and is very loose and wiggly.

I will look into this hope that I can just cut and slide it on. I don't want to take GPU apart, if so I will leave it alone. Thanx!

Replacement is a good one...Let there be light!  Lol!  So far, looking good.  Sent the defective one back...now just have to wait to have collateral put back on my credit card.  New card ASIC is 72, where the defective one was 81.   All in all...pleased.

Re: EVGA GeForce GTX 980 Ti! 2016/04/19 23:58:15 (permalink)
I'm new to SLI and I'll be running dual 980 ti hybrids on the classified 4x4... My question is, how often does Nvidia update their drivers, and when are they do... I'm asking as I've been reading a good deal about microstutter with the 980's and current drivers have been consistently mentioned as a factor in stability... Not to mention clocking, monitor type and connection... And a few solid hours of tweaking... Any suggestions?

There is no real schedule for driver releases.  Most of the time, drivers are released around the time new games come out.  There will be quite a few in the beginning of May...expect some then.  Another great forum to chat is at www.geforce.com  Go to community.  You might find some answers there.

So from that, it looks as if there is no single setting that handles EVERY game... Hence the need to tweak for each game or program and saving as a profile... Good job I like playing with the system almost as much as I like gaming... Or am I mistaken and am better off staying with a single card

Re: EVGA GeForce GTX 980 Ti! 2016/04/30 14:14:01 (permalink)
We currently have the below listed rig in my 'sig. This is my family's gaming PC.
 
I want to soon upgrade/downsize at the same time...  to the Mini-ITX form factor. Here are the components I'm considering and the issue I face...
Asus Z170i Pro Gaming MB
i7-6700k cpu
Corsair Hydro H100i v2 water cooler
Corsair 2x8GB LPX DDR4 3200 RAM
Samsung external cd-rw
Phanteks Evolv ITX case
 
I will use my current samsung EVO 850 1 TB SSD, mouse, keyboard, maybe the Xonar sound (if there's an available slot), and the Corsair HX850 (if there's room)
 
PROBLEM... My current 980TI EVGA card does not exhaust air out the case (# 06G-P4-4995-KR). I need a 980Ti model that does that, because this case is small and tight, and so I need to get that hot air out faster, afaik.
 
Any easy workarounds so that I could use my current video card? Or other ideas....  I just got the 980Ti on Feb 7th..... and working perfectly...
 
Thanks.

Asus P8P67  | i7-2600k | EVGA 980Ti (# 06G-P4-4995-KR) | Corsair Ram | Corsair HX850 PS | Xonar Essence ST sound | M-Audio AV-40's | Sennheiser PC360 headset \ Corsair 600T case

Hey all.  Proud owner of a GTX 980 Ti Classified.  Wanted to know a good target temp for it?  It's currently set to 83 C.  Is that too high?

Hey all! (I apologize if this is the wrong thread)
 
 New to the forums and to EVGA hardware. After research I dropped a bomb and got 2 980Ti Hybrids. I could not be happier with these cards, truly beautiful in design and performance! Apart from the GPU's I was absolutely floored at the technical service. I have never experienced this kind of customer care with anything I've purchased in my life. My only regret is that I did not put more of your products into my build! This is only my second rig but I can say with 100% confidence EVGA is my choice from here on out. Maybe a little regret with the pascal cards releasing but fingers crossed I make the step up deadline!
 
Cheers!

Hybrid was in stock today, but sold out. More soon.


Just got the 980ti CLASSIFIED. Need to setup water cooing as it runs hot here in Fl. Is there a backplate and watercooling solution available?

You bought the 0998 classified, which I am jot sure they sell a backplate separate for since the 3998 and 4998 both come with the backplate pre-installed.

The EKWB gtx 780 classy Waterblock fits it like a glove.

Thanks ST, Before I go searching, is there anyone wanting to sell this item? PM me as I am going to purchase this and put the CLASSIFIED ON WATER ASAP.
Thanks again ST.   (on fire in Florida)
 
ps - just bought a 970 FTW off EVGA B-STOCK to go with the one I have. The pair will make a nice 2nd rig for folding/crunching without the temps being an issue. Currently running 1 970 FTW at factory settings and it is 58 C - I think another will run just fine - used my EVGA BUCKS and got it cheap!

I have a similar configuration, same case but using the EVGA 980 Ti Classified. I'm using 3 Phanteks 140mm PH-F140SP_BK case fans; one in the rear and have 2 as intakes, instead of the stock 200mm which I removed. I have no problems with heat and I'm totally air cooled!

Hi all. I have a EVGA GeForce GTX 980 Ti SC+ GAMING ACX 2.0+. I have recently found that driver version 361.75 has given me best performance overall with all games even though its an old driver.
This version of driver reduces game stutter a'lot for all my games other than Hitman.
Does anyone else found a better driver or know of a better version to give best performance overall?
Why is it that the newer drivers make the card perform so badly with stuttering unless the fps remain at the refresh rate of the screen?

This version of driver reduces game stutter a'lot for all my games other than Hitman.
Does anyone else found a better driver or know of a better version to give best performance overall?
Why is it that the newer drivers make the card perform so badly with stuttering unless the fps remain at the refresh rate of the screen?


All of the newer drivers work fine for me so no problems here

Hi all. I have a EVGA GeForce GTX 980 Ti SC+ GAMING ACX 2.0+. I have recently found that driver version 361.75 has given me best performance overall with all games even though its an old driver.
This version of driver reduces game stutter a'lot for all my games other than Hitman.
Does anyone else found a better driver or know of a better version to give best performance overall?

The last two Nvidia drivers were causing constant crashes with my ACX 2.0 as well, so just because they might work fine for you doesn't necessarily mean they are going to work for everyone.  The crashes were not infrequent either, sometimes happening up to ten times in a single day.  Mostly from just watching videos too.  This was on a fresh install of Windows 10 also.  With the 364.72 drivers, I even ended up with a crash I had never seen before in over twenty years of PC gaming; a tan flickering screen.  I've just been using drivers from last year as well with the 980 Ti with zero issues.  With my 780 however, I haven't had any issues with the 364.51 drivers, but it's also on Windows 7.

''Just got the 980ti CLASSIFIED. Need to setup water cooing as it runs hot here in Fl. Is there a backplate and watercooling solution available?'''
 
ya, same issue here   just went hybrid  cooler and backplate  ready to go    that classy was looking nice but  I wanted to give the hybrid a try  and them bases were covered out of the box   .
 
so far so good   no fan or pump issues like you see reported  at times    seems I lucked out and got a works as expected card this time   [don't mean next time I fire up thing go south ]  just came to the conclusion  the pcb and clock difference  for my use was no deal breaker    and being a reference pcb type card  may help if anything pops up down the road  after warrantee is gone and sli matching will be easier  as well     and the water cooler is  as easy to  seeing most aftermarket blocks are for the reference pcb  on the easy to get side of things    and evga I hope keeps the hybrid pump standalone  kit in stock 
 
P/N: 400-HY-0996-B1 ...  lol .. auto notify  I guess I guessed that wrong  lol......   I guess that means there sell out and will be long gone no replacement parts  lol....

Not a bad card, definitely was worth the money.
