Tonight I tried to flash the BIOS (6173.zip) again but it was as well without success.
My card is a EVGA GTX 1070 SC and everything looks like it probably should.
The screen flickers and then stops again but if there should be a sucess message I don't get it.
 
This is what GPU-Z looks like before and after the attempt:
 
Additional information about my system: http:// valid.x86.fr / kx2pkg
If you need any further detail for debugging, please let me know.

This looks like you may be on an AMD platform, if so please contact us directly first 888-880-3842, you will need different update first. 

Why should we contact to EVGA? You said: "we will need different update first", so just publish it here or on other post, explain to us (AMD users), what shall we do and vouala everything is OK. Is that so difficult?

! ENTWARNUNG, ENTWARNUNG, ENTWARNUNG !

I reapplied, the flash several times, now i have a 122% PT. Maybe it was just an AB error.

damn, from +350 on memory to +600 and its stable for the past hour while benchmarking

@EVGA_JacobF, any thoughts on this?
 

zfkjswfI'm still experiencing crashes unless kboost is on
 
i can do +150 core +500 mem stable but only with kboost on. things start crashing once i turn kboost off. prior to the bios update i could only do +350 mem so yes there's been an improvement but i expected more from this update.
 
i have the ftw and updated my slave bios if that makes any difference

 
I have an open ticket but I'm honestly not very hopeful as I keep getting reps who could barely communicate in English.

i tried reflashing the primary bios and now fans at idle are stopped and PL is back to 112%
seems good so far... will keep an eye on it

Is this suppose to address the issue that was posted here,  www.reddit.com/r/buildapc/comments/58hnzb/word_of_warning_the_evga_1080_blackscreenfan_bug/ it seems like the issue posted here is hardware not software and beginning to be concerned about my recent purchase of a GTX 1070 SC

How would a bios for the 1070 have any impact on the probs with a 1080?

It also says in the post:
"The problem is: this also affects the 1080 sc, 1070 ftw and 1070 sc. Every EVGA card has shown a hotspot which reaches over 90°C easily."

great. now i'm worried this is GTX 970 all over again. what a nightmare.
