The BIOS issue, as far as I can tell, is that the installer doesn't recognize that it's an EVGA GTX 1060.  This appears to be due to problems reading the SubVendor ID from cards installed on AMD chipset motherboards.  This same issue keeps the software that controls overclocking (EVGA Precision X OC) from recognizing that it's an EVGA card and so the program disables numerous functions that are supposedly only available to EVGA cards (Automatic overclocking, curve-based voltage control, BIOS installation, etc.)
 
I'm also having all sorts of latency-issues too, and many people are complaining it's the NVidia 10-series cards, but I'm still investigating the source of this.

The lack of availability of the GTX 1080 SC,GTX 1080 FTW and Classified is so ridiculous. We all like to know when these cards will be available for mass production is there any set date?

Thanks cyber_nicco; I have an Intel board myself but was curious if there were other problems as well to watch for.
 
And yes silentoption, it seems that other than the 1070, everything else is hard to find...

This, I have somebody that will buy my 2x970's, but the amount I can get for them goes down everyday.

There's a hot fix driver 368.95 to fix the latency issue you are seeing.

Get weird issue with my Gtx 1080. Happened just once, but i dont know why.
I left idle my pc for 5 days. When i back i run some application and core clock stuck on 1275mhz instead of 1950mhz like always. Memory clock was not affected. Gpuz reports PWR limit at 32%. Reboot pc fixes.

Any experience this issue? Card is OC by factory only.

I am sure i have good psu. Corsair 750 W

All sleep options are turned OFF. All power management options in Windows set to Balanced ( default ). In on nvidia is adaptive ( default ).

There are some peoples experiencing the same issue on geforce forum.

Do something or ignore this if i happened once? Drivers 368.69

i have a evga founders 1080 and i very happy
is possible a bios variant for founders with only clock model 1080sc?

I agree it is ridiculous. What is the point of Micro Center having exclusive to be the only vender to sell the 1080 Classified?? I mean unless you live in the same city or state that has a Micro Center your SOL because they are only available for in store pick up. I am and have been a strong supporter of EVGA products but, sorry EVGA I don't see the point...

We are loyal and dedicated customers and for that we get ignored and receive 0 transparency into when 1080s (especially classified) will have sufficient stock. I am very unhappy with the current state of information from evga.

When the 1060 SC will be in stock on amazon???
