As title.
I have a GTX980Ti SC SLI ACX2.0+ with a good airflow in my case. Cards are well spaced.
The second card hits 70°C but the upper one hits 90°C.
This is a card returned from an RMA, I don't remember to have ever surpassed 80°C with previous card, does this have some problem?
Is 90°C a dangerous temp?

Yes, 90C is too high for that top card and it will throttle. Is that top cards fan working as it should. If so I would pull that top card and replace the thermal paste. Or maybe you could try switching the cards around and see if you get better temps with the hot card on the bottom.

I like the idea of switch cards first and see it the problem follows. Of course the primary (top) card is always stressed more in SLI.

I don't know what it happened.
When the card arrived from RMA one or two months ago the max temp was 72°C,
I can see it from my screnshots playing Far Cry 5.
I never touched the cards since than but now with a pretty similar ambient temp I see 92°C with the same game with the same settings.
How this can be possible?
I'm not able to explain this
Should I do a third RMA?

I swapped the card, the one coming from RMA (now in the bottom position hits 85°C without overclock) the second card (now in the top position) hits 72°C :O
What happened? I don't touched my systems since the RMA (april 2018)
Do they sent me a broken card ?
This is the second RMA I do, I'm starting to think that something doesn't work as it should with EVGA.

My suggestion is that you first contact EVGA for assistance.

I just wrote a PVT to: EVGATech_JamesLEVGATech_JeffPEVGATech_JaesonWEVGATech_LeeM I hope that they will help and tell me what to do before move. This is the second RMA I do on those cards, I'm really really really disappointed and disconsolate

I am selling those low quality control cards for two Asus, never more an EVGA product.
At the end I decided to sell those cards but I surely don't want to sell a defective product.
Please send me back a new card and please give me a return label, I don't want to pay any shipping cost.
I think that since you sent me three defective card this is the minimum you can do.
