when the fans actually decide they want to work, the mem stays in the 70s and the gpu stays around 70 as well, however sometimes two of the fans wont kick on until the card starts to overheat. Weird. really wonky.

Yeah I finally figured out through trial and error how to enable automatic fan control in PX1 and put a slightly more aggressive fan curve in there. So far my three fans have been running fine whilst gaming. I keep a close watch on them though.

I've been checking out the memory thermal pads here:

They look kinda thick. But that shouldn't be the cause of such high memory temps IMO. 75C memory is like chips with no contact at all.

Would also like to see an official response to this, not liking 2 of my memory banks getting to 80C while the other one sits comfortably at 50C

Can someone with a XC Ultra pipe in on their temps? Or a 2080?

Top memory bank in a founders edition card gets to about 85C under load according to tom's

Yeah makes me nervous too, getting Wednesday

Oh yeah, Saw you mention before that you had got one. I noticed returns are a 15% re-stocking fee if opened or something? If im understanding that right. I don't wanna pay $205.00 to simply open the box and test the card to find out i'm having multiple issues, or hot mem banks.
 
I'd love to open the box up and try the card out, but i'm not into paying 200$ to simply test the card... Yes i could RMA but maybe this is an issue that could take them some time to fix, or maybe changing design, idk... Could be a lengthy process

Hello, 

We had some instances that the fans were not running when running PX1 due to a MCU update not applying. Please download and install the corresponding MCU update and check to see if that helps remedy the issues if not please post your findings. You can find the MCU FAQ here, https://www.evga.com/support/faq/afmmain.aspx?faqid=59742

Thank you,
Jose C

I'm not really considering ditching EVGA, I've owned 7 previous graphic cards form them and have always had a good experience wherever I had an issue. I have faith they will sort these issues out. I'm eager to see how the card performs and would love to report no issues.

is this different from the MCU that Jacob posted a few days ago? If so, i already tried that.

My fans show they are running in PX1 though? On the left hand side under Fan 1, 2, and 3. each show spinning.

It is the same MCU update that Jacob F posted a few days ago. Just wanted to ensure that the fans were spinning first and foremost which is part of the troubleshooting process. 


This is something that we are looking into, if your temperatures under load for the memory bank end up at above 80C +- please contact us for a RMA.

Just wanted to confirm that the fans are indeed confirmed to be spinning, I wanted to rule out a software bug. However your temperatures are fine and are in line with what they should be around at. Your temperatures are are in line with what I would get with my GTX 1080 ti FTW3's under load with an aggressive fan curve. But as I stated above, we are going to look into this with our PM team for you guys.

Yeah my main concern is those two memory banks like 30c hotter than the one.

Thanks, I've already been set up for an RMA, just waiting for it to be approved so i can send my CC info for the $1 hold. I'll do what ever is asked of me to trouble shoot this card from my end. Id hate to RMA a card that could be resolved with a bios update or software fix.

Yeah, this is something that I'll look into as well. However, I suspect that it may have to do with the way that the heat is flowing on the graphics card, which shouldn't cause issues however.

Jose,
Could this have anything to do at all with my Fan 1 spinning around 500 rpm slower than fans 2 and 3?
 
So far those two memory banks have reached about 73-75c on me, the other one around 48c.
Guess still safe operating, but concerning nonetheless.

Re: GDDR6 FTW3 operating temperatures? 2018/10/28 15:06:45 (permalink)
So left memory bank is at 45-50, but top and right are at 75-80.
Is it maybe that the card is not using all memory banks most of the time?

Try a memory-heavy (CUDA) benchmark or high-resolution one (to force 11GB usage) and report temperatures. Something like 200% rendering of 4K in Battlefield...

If a fully used memory situation gives differently hot memory banks, it's something about no/weak contact.
If the left bank gets as hot as top and right, it's all ok most probably.

So with the fans at 100%, and I can confirm that the fans are indeed spinning, the top and right memory banks reach 81 C, does that mean I should request an RMA?

Make sure memory is filled to the top, meaning max resolution you can force on it. And AA. Check with GPU-Z.

That would be iCX technology working its magic :) Depending on the temperatures of the components on your graphics card, the graphics card will adjust the fan speeds. If you want all three fans running at fixed speeds you can set a fixed fan speed in Precision X1 and hit apply to set that value.

Ok thanks, no problem with it myself it just came to mind on those two hotter memory banks.
Pure speculation on my part lol.

$1 hold? Is that the system where they send you a new card before you send them yours, so there is no down-time on your end?. Also i'm guessing people who own the card already will be sent a new one, no having to wait for them to become available, etc?

Battlefield 1 4k 200% scaling ran at a choppy but impressive 40fps. 5 minutes of play Yeilded:

Max GPU temp :69c
Gpu2 max 78c
Gpu mem1 max 52c
Gpu mem2 max 84c
Gpu mem3 max 82c

yes your are correct, its a rapid RMA. However im not sure the wait time with the current high demand and low stock. I would like to think im prioritized over new orders, but Im not sure about that.

Keep in mind also, 1080 ti FTW3 gets the GDDR5 to about 82C in a closed case torture test

Battlefield 1 4k 200% scaling ran at a choppy but impressive 40fps. 5 minutes of play Yeilded:

Max GPU temp :69c
Gpu2 max 78c
Gpu mem1 max 52c
Gpu mem2 max 84c
Gpu mem3 max 82c



To me, this really looks like mem 2-3 are not being properly cooled.
Or the proximity of VRM heats memory 3 and top side of the chip is insanely more hot than the left side so it heats top mem 2 significantly. But both explanations are silly. I'd bet on mem 2-3 not being cooler properly.

That is my guess as well as the heatsink might not be in full contact or that part of the heatsink is just too saturated.

I'm hoping it doesn't take EVGA long to confirm or deny these.  I'm holding off on buying another brand because I like EVGA.  They could probably rework them quickly before they sell them.
