Thank you EVGA and thanks for working on your solution.
Well this VBIOS version also contain the Micron VRAM "fix" from v86.04.50.00.70?

Can anyone tell me where I can get the new BIOS update? The only BIOS I can find is for memory overclocking.

According to evga.com/thermalmod, it says, "This VBIOS will be released in the next few days."

Knowing the thickness of the thermal tape EVGA is planning to ship would be awesome. Some of us wouldn't sourcing the materials ourselves as we understand it may take EVGA a long time to ship them.
+1
I wrote this before and it's not difficult from EVGA to told us exactly the thickness of thermal pads!
- As I read a previous post (don't remember the page) about the thickness from a mod of forum told is 1mm.
- On gamernexus.net write that the kit include:
- "Narrow" thermal pad for inductors: ~1.8mm x ~27mm x ~109mm
- "Wide" thermal pad for rear-side of PCB: ~2mm x ~56mm x ~109mm
- Thermal compound. Ours was 5W/mK, but the kits will vary based on supply.
το another point of the page write:
-That kit is provided free to affected EVGA customers, but you could also buy your own thermal pads (~$7) of comparable size if EVGA cannot fulfill a request. When open the link the pads thinkness is 1.5mm
So do we know the exactly thickness of the pads, is 1mm or 1.5mm or 2mm?
+1 I have 1080 SC I tried .05mm pad as its what i had lying around.. didnt make contact on both sides so at least thats rules out. Can a EVGA staff member please clarify the size and thickness?

This is my ghetto thermal pad mod. It's in no way pretty, but it will do until eVGA send out their official pads. I used Fujipoly Ultra Extreme 17W/mK pads and TG Kryonaut 12.5W/mK TIM.
I checked for VRAM contact as well, it was fine. Thanks Scarlet-Tech for the original mod guide.
the middle one seems to be problematic.

I am assuming exactly what I requested him to post. Please stop trying to turn every single post into something they are not. I addressed a user requesting them post a part number, because they did not.
I'm not trying to turn anything, the Part number you posted is on the list, isn't it? your sentence make it pass as an exception model, the capture show it's not.
You are going off into left field. You really need to read exactly what I typed.
He posted his friend has a 1070 SC.
I said, you need to post the part number (models can be easily mistaken... part numbers can not be...)
I said, off of what he posted, that I assume it is is part number 6173... Which is the 1070 SC.
After that, I said, his friend should not contact support, he should go to www.evga.com/thermalmod and request the thermal pads.
You posting a list of the exaggerated part numbers has ko relevance to my post. If he has part number 6173, the he can request the pads exactly where I linked. But since he did not post the part number, we would need to verify it so we guide him to do the correct thing.
This a 6173, a 1070 SC with blackplate, the regular one in fact...

Reading all the issues reports the main problem is at FTW cards and not SC ones right?

I don't think you can readily purchase 1.8mm thermal pads so it's most likely 1.5mm for the inductors/chokes and 2mm for the backplate.
The guy measured them though. However the 1.8mm ones he has could have been squashed a little by mail. It will be fine if you get 2mm ones. You can stretch them a little, + they get flattened by pressure. Heck you could even measure the gap yourselves.

Another day another burned card: imgur .com/a/7D3Pv Few weeks ago I had the same 'black screen' issue. I think I should check mine does it look the same as this one. ps. It would be nice if we could have some updates regarding the whole issue. Still not a single word regarding pads' delivery.

for the cooling plate and the stock vram pads i guess both are the same in all acx 3.0 cards you can first check yours by a spot light.

First post updated with BIOS's for several 1080 and 1070 cards. More coming soon. Please post any feedback in this thread, we are still fine tuning and updating as more BIOS's are available.

Also I would like to request the thermal pads for my 1070 SC Black Edition. The link from earlier stated I do not have a qualifying product. How can I go about getting them? Thanks again.
Try now.
Only update on BIOS is fan profile.
Jacob, im sorry brotha but I have to tell the owners the truth about the situation...... we all know Joe broke it and I think they should know too.    Edit: I just thought of something after I posted this..... this could be Agent Tiny related. This is exactly the type of thing that would backfire on him all the time when overclocking, lol.

They will continue to pop, one after another, until something really serious happen, damaging other parts in the PC, Fire...and then EVGA is done.

This VBIOS only adjust fan curves? In other words : only makes your GPU more noisy?

Yeah, I'd like to see the new fan curve as well. Lots of people use custom fan curves and knowing something like a "safe reference" curve would be really useful to see how we'll have to adjust our current curves.
