I just ordered one about 5mins ago since it's back in stock (Newegg). Just got on here and started reading people with FTW3's who are having problems. Crossing my fingers in hopes that everything is good when mine arrives.

no issues perfect for me,the only small issue i had is some little cable on the side was touching my fan out of the box so make sure it's not doing that to you'rs as well

 I would guess all the people that made posts about it.

My backplate LED wasn't properly installed, and I had to break the tamper sticker(which EVGA said I was allowed to do and still have a warranty), and fix it myself. Was kinda annoying for a card of this price...that said, everything else is great and I can say that I am still glad I went with EVGA again...one of my main reasons has always been their customer service. Now that I've actually used it myself, I can see why everyone loves them for it. It's exceptional.

One of the best things about being on these forums is reading all the first-hand accounts of how helpful EVGA has been with issues when they emerge. I expect my FTW3 ELITE to be free of issues, but at least it's easy to reach customer service if it isn't.

You always hear more from those that have issues though because they have the most reasons to speak out. Those who are pleased are less likely to come to a forum to say good things. Same goes for reviews for the most part online.

No issues here. I didn't DDU initially which seems to have caused my power limit to be unable to properly increase. Ran DDU and all is well.

I benchmarked ours for like 4 hours or so straight with no issues. Doing more now, still no issues.
