i been looking every place i can think of to find what the hell the switch is for on my 1070FTW card ..
When i got my card i got it off ebay and it never came with the manual .. and the stuff of the evga site here, tells me nothing ..
SO if anyone knows for sure what the switch is for let me know..

That card has dual VBIOS..That's what the switch is for.

"slave" - performance, fans should always run ....
Turn off PC, Pull the plug to all powered devices connected to PC - slide the switch (be very gentle, those switch bumps can be brittle & break very easy sometimes)

Yeah..The Slave has a higher Power Target and will disable the 0dB fan operation.
To change the BIOS, slide the switch and restart your PC..Or, turn off your PC and then slide the switch (turn off 'Fast Startup' in Windows Power Options or it may not take effect).
You can also flash the Slave to another BIOS while keeping the Master as-is.

i read a little bit about it, but during my read it said that the power limit would be 122 instead of 112. the thing is not matter if my swtich is set to master or slave the mitit still show 112. evne trying to put in 122 it goes right back to 112 .. ideals on how to fix this. I tryed powering off , unplugging the power cord, holding down the power button and no change during anything .. even uninstalled Precision X1 and reinstalling it .. still shows same power limit of 112 ..

Grab the Slave/Secondary BIOS here and flash it..Then see how it rolls.

You might want to grab both bios and make sure both are flashed. This will make sure everything is set to out of the box defaults.
