Did they tell you if RMA card is brand new?

no they didnt, i mean i rma,ed the card within 30 days of purchase so I actually should get a new one, but i didnt order the card on the evga homepage so i dont know if I will get a new one in this case as well

So can you guys using the classified tool what settings are 100 Percent safe to use 24/7 at gaming using the classified tool? I want my card to be able to pull 520 Watts which it can't without either using the dipswitches or the classified tool, but im not sure which settings are safe to use. Also I dont want to disable OCP. Thanks

Yes it's safe. It allows the card to draw a little bit more power which increases internal clocks = more perf. 

So i enabled 2 nvvdd and 2 msvdd dipswitches is that still safe to use for gaming 24/7 etc?

Necro on this thread.  Just wanted to confirm safety for daily driving with the two dipswitches --- assuming one isn't being a dipsh*t at the same time, I think it should be safe.  But, been a few months since you posted - did your card melt or what?

Power draw depends on several factors.  Different games and benchmarks will have different power draw.  When you use PX1, are you hitting the voltage limit?
