Hi,
Is it crashing in every game? Have you tried any benchmarking tools such as heaven benchmark to see if it crashes in that?
Have you installed anything recently? Software or hardware wise? Updated the drivers recently?

Well i tried with 2 games and it crashed black screen and POWER FAN spinning loudly , i had to shutdown then . Due to idle operation i didnt see any crash strangely .
I tried to benchmark with 3DMARK11 but again it also crashed to same incident ,
Recently i did instant that New NVIDIA Driver beta , at first i thought it could be that driver so i did download DDU and then uninstalled clean previous driver via safeboot and then reinstalled last stable release driver of nvidia but still crashing whenever i start any game or benchmark . What could be the reason ? is my Card Defective ? ; even i tried with that DEBUGGING option which sticked in this forum suggestion that also gave me crash too , what i should do now ... please suggest ..

Just to make sure.
When you start your game, you have a Black Screen and Fans 100% way up? Then you need to reset the PC to work correctly?
If that's the case, some people have reported this same issue, but with a low quality PSU (Power Supply Unit).
You didn't mention which is yours, can you describe for us? Brand, model, etc..?
This issue might happen if the PSU is not giving your FTW3 enought power when in load, so the GPU crash for safety reasons.

Hello , my PSU is SEASONIC PLATINUM 860XP2 , Whenever i start any game System goes black screen and GPU POWER Fan Spins loudly not sure 100% or not but i checked other 2 fans not spin that time . Then i had to hard shut down my pc and start again and during non gaming session so far no crash happened . Also GPU fan spinning normally during NON GAMING session . I did not overclock anything , only using RAM as XMP profile of 3200 MHZ , problem first i checked when i was using RAM as Normal 2133 Mhz mode then i changed to 3200 and same crash still happening , also FYI i recently upgraded my BIOS to latest version , but also keep in mind after i did upgrade bios i played games fine 2 - 3 days then this problem arise .

What OS are you running, and what PSU, and what graphics card were you using before the 1080 Ti FTW3?
It could be that your PSU is insufficient/failing as mentioned by Pietro, try another one if you have one..A 600W minimum PSU is recommended by EVGA for that card..If you can, you could test the 1080 Ti FTW3 in another PC or take it to a PC repair shop for testing.

Hardly it will be the PSU. Seasonic makes one the best PSU's out there. Try refirming your cables on the PSU, just to make sure they are properly seated. Did you downloaded Precision X OC? For Firmware update of the GPU? (Download V. 6.1.11 since it was the most stable before recent updates) https://www.evga.com/precisionxoc/When I bought my FTW3, only one fan was spinning, and PXOC was not recognizing the sensors temps. Did a firmware update, power off the PC, took the plug out of the wall for 30 seconds, and power on everything, and all worked like a charm. As recommended by Yoda, Try downloading some benchmark tools as well (Firestrike / Heaven Bench). Other then this solutions, there is nothing more that I could recall to might give you a solution.

Thanks for your try about solution , First of all as i mentioned My card still running during idle no issue so far , thats why i am able to reply right now . Whenever i start any game or Benchmark [ I tried 3DMARK11 ] it crash to black screen and i noticed that Among 3 fans last fan from HDMI/DISPLAY PORT SIDE spinning loudly [ possibly @ 100% ] and other 2 fans not spinning that time . Then i have to press power button to make PC shut down and after that i restart PC by pressing power button and it starts normally . This is all happening so far , i don't know about future incident change  I have SEASONIC PLATINUM PSU 860 WATT , I hope any EVGA staff notice this and suggest me what to do here ... i am pretty confused to understand that my PSU dead or Card :/

I agree with the other posts. edit: while I was typing the sentence above you replied. What about your old graphics card? (Have you still got it?) - remember to uninstall old drivers before swapping back. If you don't have the card anymore.... You should have onboard graphics as well with that mobo I believe. Perhaps try that to see how far you get (remember to uninstall old drivers before, obviously then remove the FTW3 but make sure that the onboard GFX card is enabled first before removing the FTW3). If it stops the system straight away during a benchmark then it could be some other component/driver/software/bios firmware issue. I'm aware that the demand on the PSU won't be as high as a Pascal card will require but it may help narrow things down another step. -YODA

I was just thinking. When the crash occurs what colour are the LEDs on the top of the FTW3? There should be three of them. Edit: removed a silly statement. If some are red, well that might indicate a temp issues there. A very useful feature on these EVGA cards!

Unfortunately, many times troubleshooting a problem involves testing harware in another PC or using known good hardware in your PC to rule in or out suspect parts..Otherwise, it can be just a guessing game and can get expensive real quick..Seasonic makes excellent PSUs but even the best can and have failed..Tough call, 50/50 between probably either being the PSU or the card..If I had to lean one way or the other, I'd say the card is failing, given the history of it happening before to other people..Your card has a Double BIOS, you should switch to the other BIOS, restart your PC and try things again..The BIOS switch is located near the PCIe power connectors.

In my experience, if a GPU crashes and causes a black screen combined with a sudden loud spinning fan or fans, and doesn't recover until you press the power button, the card is defective or unstable.
I've had the same on my Asus RMA 780Ti I got back, it isn't fully stable at 100% power target under certain loads, it could crash repeatedly in a scene in 3DMark and some other games, the higher the power target the faster the crashes happened.
Try lowering the power target and see what happens, if that fixes it the card is RMA-worthy in my opinion.
It might not be stable either due to power draw or combined with certain boost clocks / voltage and certain GPU workloads.

I noticed games can crash at startup if you have a toggle set on the OSD and accidentally leave it on when you exit or accidentally break the game alt+tabbing out while it's active (like Skyrim). I did the latter, I tabbed out of Skyrim making it lock up while I had the OSD on, so it crashed, then when I tried to start the game again, it crashed every time. Solution: just hit the toggle key once again and start the game and it worked fine lol

That is a common problem with OSD softwares, but that only crashes applications, not a complete PC with GPU fans going nuts.

I guess i found the solution for my issue , Well after listening to all of your replies i checked PSU cable and saw that its kinda stuck into my PSU [ My PSU Modular fully ] , i can't take out that PCI-E Cable from it , may be due to excessive heat that got stuck , well i had fresh new PCI-E cables from stock of Seasonic cables , so i took out that faulty stuck PCI-E Cable from Card and then added 2x PCI-E 6 PIN connectors with EVGA 8PIN connectors which came with the card and then started PC and everything suddenly fine , i ran both WITCHER 3 and PUBG game and played like 10 - 15 minutes and no more shut down . I guess that previous PCI-E Cable got defected and that's why may be not enough power coming to Card whenever i was starting games . Although i did not come to any solid conclusion yet , until i use for more 3 - 5 days and see if problem occurring or not again . If no more issue occurs then i can be more sure that my PSU Cable had issue only . For now i can say about 70 - 30% decision of OK with my card . Lets see if any more error comes up i will report here , yes indeed Seasonic PSU i heard most powerful that's why bought that .

Game on!
Yes its also bit shocking to me that problem can happen like this too sometime but i glad my card so far looks ok . I ordered custom cables now from cablemod and i hope that works well for me and PSU give me some more years service .

I guess i found the solution for my issue , Well after listening to all of your replies i checked PSU cable and saw that its kinda stuck into my PSU [ My PSU Modular fully ] , i can't take out that PCI-E Cable from it , may be due to excessive heat that got stuck , well i had fresh new PCI-E cables from stock of Seasonic cables , so i took out that faulty stuck PCI-E Cable from Card and then added 2x PCI-E 6 PIN connectors with EVGA 8PIN connectors which came with the card and then started PC and everything suddenly fine , i ran both WITCHER 3 and PUBG game and played like 10 - 15 minutes and no more shut down . I guess that previous PCI-E Cable got defected and that's why may be not enough power coming to Card whenever i was starting games . Although i did not come to any solid conclusion yet , until i use for more 3 - 5 days and see if problem occurring or not again . If no more issue occurs then i can be more sure that my PSU Cable had issue only . For now i can say about 70 - 30% decision of OK with my card . Lets see if any more error comes up i will report here , yes indeed Seasonic PSU i heard most powerful that's why bought that .

Nice! Good to know you could resolve it, for at least the moment. So the problem was a power supplying on the GPU as I though? When I had my 1080 FTW, I had the issue of the Black Screen and 100% fans spinning, but this was due a hardware failure in some cards made before September 2016. Hardly this newer cards will have this problem again. Also, when picking up custom cables for your PSU, just make sure they are made for your PSU.

Yes .. i assume the correct power was not coming to card during game session thus the shut down , now using it 2 days almost so far no shut down or anything . And yes i am choosing right Cable for PSU for custom cables .. :)

Well after 6 days report , not a single Shutdown or any other issue . Now i am confirmed that issue came from that PSU PCI-E Cable not for the card [ Thank god ] , one thing i wanna know that the PCI-E Cable was giving issue for my case that is stuck with the PSU , i can't take out that cable from my PSU don't know why , its like completely jammed with PSU Unit may be due to heat or something .. so will it give any problem if i just keep that cable attached with PSU and use my computer components with other cables . My PSU is full modular and i can attach more PCI-E cable in other slots than the stuck one and use them on card instead of bad cable .

+1 on Sajin. Most probably one of the pins melted to the PSU plug itself? Some overvoltage on your PSU maybe. Would be safer to RMA it, since it might replicate one day to the other PCI-e plug. But for now, glad to hear that your GPU wasn't the problem
