I currently bought the 1080ftw2 from evga and within a few minutes of using it, it began to crash randomly during games. I didn't notice it crashing when not in game. I saw a thread that said any software monitoring fan speed and temp could cause and issue. I currently have the Evga precision xoc running on my computer, I'm not sure that would give an issue considering it is an evga program. I have a friend holding the card to see if he can get it to crash on his rig as well. I use an asrock z370m pro 4 motherboard, 16gig ddr4 gskill ripjaws v ram, I5 8400 8th gen cpu and I have an evga 600w Bronze psu. I have rmad the card and am sending it back. Hoping the replacement doesn't do the same thing, any suggestions for when the new card comes in?

    How is your friend testing the card while you're sending it back? If the replacement card shows the same issue I would suggest trying another psu.
