Sorry to sound like a broken record but could someone please address this? Every other cooler type seems to have been specifically, officially ruled in or ruled out with the exception of the ACX 2.0. If there is something I could be or should be doing to reduce the risk of issues with heat or reduce the wear and tear on my card, I would really like to be able to do it. I realize reporting on this has likely been out of proportion but given how infrequently I'm in the position to replace my graphics card and the joys of the replacement processes from Australia, am still a little concerned. From page 4: EVGA_JacobF Q. If my Graphics Card is not an ACX 3.0 design is it affected?A. No, all other GPUs sold by EVGA including Founders Edition, Blower type, HYBRID, and HYDRO COPPER editions are unaffected. I know it says all other GPUs, but any reason why seemingly all the other cooler types where mentioned and not the ACX 2.0 single fan cooler used by some 1060's?

Can you guys share the new curve please?
I'm asking to everyone with the new bios and some evga guys, no answer at all, I begin to think it's a legend 
How would one provide the new curve? I don't usually run the Precision software - I think it's bloated and not intuitive. I just want a videocard that works and don't care about overclocking, so I just install regular drivers and that's about it. On my 08G-P4-6276-KR with Bios 86.04.50.00.72, these are the curves being shown on precision: Quiet:  Aggressive:  Is what what you guys want?

That was scary! Just ran the updated BIOS on my GTX 1070 card. I have an ASUS 4K monitor running at a native 3040 X 2160 resolution. When the update started it changed the resolution to 1024X768 and the update window disappeared. I checked display properties and there was no way to change the resolution. The NVIDIA app was gone so I couldn't change anything. I noticed in the lower right hand corner of the screen there was some text of some kind but about 99% of it was off screen and nothing seemed to be happening as far as the update process. I was almost ready to chance a reboot but decided to try grabbing the text and dragging it back onto the visible screen. Fortunately that worked and the update process was waiting for me to enter a Y to continue. Entered a Y and the update process completed. A reboot put everything back to normal.

Please excuse my insistence. I'm trying to ascertain if 1.5 mm thick pads are thick enough for the application. Anyone who has applied thermal pads already that could provide some feedback. The information so far is that the pads EVGA will provide are ~1.8-2 mm thick. I'm trying to source the materials myself and finding pads thicker that 1.5 mm is proving to be troublesome.
It depends on the card. For FTW: Backplate Thermal Pad = 2mm Baseplate Thermal Pad = 1mm Other cards: Backplate Thermal Pad = 2mm Baseplate Thermal Pad = 1.5mm

The new fan curve will vary depending on card, but in general it is about 200-500RPM higher at higher temperatures. There is still a 0dB fan operation at idle.

I am running an Intel platform still no luck on flashing the bios. cmd prompt closes in a split of a second without any input needed. doubled checked the switch on the card its on master and the update is launched with admin rights.

Every bios update requires the driver to be shut off for the update, so that was why everything went all crazy scaling on you. That is normal, and when you are doing your own flash, you have to disable the driver in the device manager window yourself. This just does all the work, minus a press of the Y button.

Is it possible to simply show me the 08G-P4-6173-KR 1070 SC fan curve, please ? It's nothing crazy to ask I think and I have 3 friends who have the same request... Thanks

Any antivirus/defender etc running? These may stop the prog from running

The people linking those curves: Those are PrecisionOCX Built in custom fan profiles for curstom, quiet and aggresive. The automatic fan curve is not shown! Only an engineer @ evga can show those, or you have to manually monitor temps and fan speeds to find out the curve.

Updated the bios of my 08G-P4-6276-KR - EVGA GeForce GTX 1070 FTW ACX 3.0 utilzando the bios available for this link in the main post - 08G-P4-6276-KR - EVGA GeForce GTX 1070 FTW ACX 3.0 - Primary BIOS (86.04.3b.00.72), it happens that after the update the numbering of the bios that appears in the GPU-Z is the Primary BIOS was made (86.04.50.00.72) and not of Primary BIOS (86.04.3b.00.72) this correct it?
50.00.72 is correct.
Luta Wicasa
Yes...that was a typo and is now corrected.
Thx guys

Ok, this is good information. Everybody somebody said "I managed to flash my videocard", somebody would immediately ask "can you share the new curves?". I imagined that the actual videocard's curve (the one stored in the bios) is not accessible by users - which is why I was confused.

Support ticket sent with RMA in mind. I think for 780€ I should get something else but 'half baked' card I need to fix for myself. :) Let's see how will this process go.

While it may not seem to be a lot to ask,it is difficult to get ahold of EVGA techs right now as they trying to get everything corrected to make the customers happy. With 400+ replies in 48 hours, evga is going to see every single message and be able to respond instantly. Give them a little time to respond.

No problem but I think it can be very helpful ! Because I want to make a more agressive curve fan and I want to start with their curve fan...

So under my card P/N it says secondary BIOS coming soon? I did not even know that the card supports two BIOS. So I am assuming since it is a feature that I did not even know about that my card is still at default BIOS and i will want the first DL link? Also it says make sure no background programs are running. We are suppose to completely close out of everything? (Security programs, mouse/keybaord programs and what not)

You are correct...you'll want to reflash with this newest bios.

Yup, that is right. It is recommended to close as many background process as possible to not interfere, but honestly it will likely not be a problem.

I completely understand, and I like your logic. BartyB

Your card may not support dual bios, but this will be a secondary that flashes over the original You should close down any games you have running or programs that require a save (photo editors or folding type items). This will just protect you from losing a save point because you have to restart once the bios flash completes. Download the file, double click, hit Y for yes when it asks, and let it do its work. It only takes about 2 minutes to complete everything.
