Hi everyone i observed after 2 months that my acx 3.0 logo on my evga gtx 1080 ftw was suddenly getting loose. Although it doesnt cause any problems i just wanted to ask either its a common problem or i got unlucky in this department. Please help me

    Looks like it's coming off in the middle, but the ends are still on. Am I seeing that right?

    Hello,
     
    I apologize that this has occurred as it is not a common issue.
     
    If you want to avoid sending the product in for warranty and feel comfortable fixing the issue yourself, the decal is held to the shroud using a padded two sided sticky tape. If you remove the decal carefully you can replace the tape and re-apply the decal.
     
    Otherwise, the decal is purely cosmetic and its delamination will not affect cooling performance.
     
    Thank you

    use a exacto type knife to gently peel it off, maybe some heat from a hair dryer ( if you use a heat gun use the low setting, just want to warm it up and not melt anything ) as it will soften the adhesive. then use some 3m VHB duoble stick, the thin version and use the exacto to trim it to fit. make sure the contact surfaces are clean also. 
     
    as for something more sturdy this is the first i have ever seen someone having one come loose like that but it does happen, the factories crank out thousands of these so you will have a few bad ones come up.
