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

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.

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

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.

 

 
This is what I'll reach maximum in heaven benchmark. Is that too much? @EVGATech_JoseC
As it seems like this is the case on all the FTW3 cards? Maybe a issue with the temp readings? Or is it a case for RMA?
 

 
I was also able to produce that bug. Slider 53% fanspeed on fan2 and applied, ended up at 0 RPM...

I can see all 3 of my fan speeds but I set them to hit 100% fan speed at 55C and hit apply also but that just turns off the auto fan control. The hits around 63C and the memory was at 75C after running the heaven benchmark. I just don't hit apply when setting my fan speed curves anymore and leave set on auto fan control. But I and using the latest beta version X1.

Under load with aggressive fan curve and no overclock, I get 80C on those two banks while the GPU is at about 67C-70C.
 
With an overclock of +800Mhz on memory and +150 gpu I get about 83C on the memory at the end of timespy, but I haven't run it for extended periods.  I assume it would climb past 83C if I looped it.  And yeah, the "cold" memory is at like 50-60C during that.  Based on the physical locations of the hot memory it's a toss up whether it's a defect or just thermal design flow on the card until EVGA wants to confirm.  Founders edition cards get just as hot on these memory locations during torture tests, and 1080Ti FTW3 have similarly high temps here.
 
Edit: Without OC and just 100% power target I actually get 84C+ on these

I’m not having these issues. My card sits at about 54 degrees with the memory close to the same at full load overclocked to 2040 stable

Which memory banks? The left memory bank seems to sit around 50 ish degrees where as the top and right memory banks jump into the 80s when under load.

reply all of them are good see pic . I had this running for about 40 minutes before taking pic

Are all your fans running can I get a pic of the fan screen for PX1. Did you turn on auto for your fans?

I have heard that the new cards run warm, If I did get any version of the rtx series it would have to be a aio type or hydro copper

Im away from my computer now, I’ll get ya a picture tomorrow.

4k Sony tv SOTR game. Max settings. Getting around 60 fps

Just block it and put a sink on it man...that will take care of it. It's like 1watt dissipation man, a piece aluminum can do that man lol

I was having the same problem until I realized that two of my three fans were not running. So I set them to auto and low and behold my card is a beast.

My gpu temps are normally low, mid to low 60's max, just on the default "Auto" cooling (Timespy with power slider to max and overclocked). When I tried the 0.3.4.0 PX1 I thought it was working, but I got gpu temps in the upper 70's before I shut down. It turned out that fans 2 and 3 weren't running during the test as shown by the hardware monitor. Check this if you have high gpu temps.
 
There's one other possibility for the high temps I'm seeing people have. These cards dump hundreds of watts of heat into the case...that's not a problem if you have good airflow, but case temps will jump up if not.

Used the OSC display funtion in PX1. This is what my temps are at with a 111 OC an 100% power target . Playing SOTR 4k max settings
 
 

UPDATE: I did a tear down of the card just now, all the thermal pads and paste looked just fine as I suspected. There definitely are full chip indentations on the thermal pads, indicating they are making good contact, and everything looks to be put together as expected.

Ok so why are so many people having mem temp issues? Is there some kind of consensus what is normal for mem temps on video cards?

I don't think most people are saying it's a problem, but they are concerned that it's not really normal despite the limit for those memory chips being 95C.
 
Also, I will add that for those that were wanting to know- when i re-did the GPU paste with Kryonaut I saw no notable temperature reduction, maybe 1-2 C but within a margin of error I think. 

Default settings, closed Phanteks Enthoo Evolv case, running Heaven at 4k highest settings for 30 minutes...

Your thermals sound like what I was expecting from this giant heatsink. What are your system fans and case ?
