I am not sure if this is normal but I am getting some hitches and hard freezes in games and windows sometimes. In windows my mouse would freeze for 3 seconds each freeze a second long; same happens in games as well.
 
At times I would get black screen flickering with gsync on as well, would be fixed through a restart.
 
I do not have an issue with my 1080ti ftw before this card and I've tried cleaning drivers and installing different ones as well. I have tried switching pci slots. The card is only about a week old.

Dont sound fun.. are all your drivers up to date? Like chipset and pci-e drivers?

How about your cpu/mem overclock? Have you went back to stock settings to see if the issues still continue? Would'nt be the first time a 2080ti card put enough stress on a system that a non stable overclock would show up.

Yeah everything is at stock , with no overclocking. I have the lastest drivers for chipsets as well.

Sounds like the GPU :/. Hopefully someone else has a better idea.

Do you still own your old 1080 ti? If yes, does it fix all the problems when you reinstall it into your system?

Card or something running in the background.

Yes the problems do go away, the problem is like this clip here 

Were you powering the 2080 ti with two separate pci-e power cables instead of a single pci-e cable that splits into dual 6+2's?

yes 2 seperate cables

This happens on desktop too sometimes when i launch something like superposition.

Guess that pretty much settles it then. Something is up with the card.

It sucks because its a week old card

Best to catch a prob early within the 30 day limit so it can be exchanged for a new card.

will probably go through the RMA process since its out of stock at newegg. Im going to do a fresh install of windows just to see if it does anything

Good call! Wish ya luck!

Thanks, did a fresh install and still unstable. I was told if you RMA before 30 days you can have a new card, thats new to me.

My new card has been working well but I notice a quirk that I havent seen before. While gaming, when I visit a webpage like reddit, it drops the GPU clocks for a second and causes a stutter in game, that happen to anyone else?
 
Turning off hardware acceleration on chrome seems to remove the issue but I havent notice this before.
 
Edit: Firefox doesnt do this either
