I can confirm I'm having the same issue. This was a newly built computer so I wasn't sure where it was coming from and thought it might've been the case fan, but I guess now I know it's the XC3 Ultra.

RMA's always happen.  I had to RMA my 1080 because they didnt apply thermal pads correctly on a bunch of the first cards. 




I am still running one of those cards as the #2 in my SLI.  I put the newer *by 1 year* 1080 ftw as the #1.  I will say that sitting down and installing the pads that they sent to me for the RMA took all of like 30 minutes.  even had to install them in a friends card who didn't feel safe taking his apart.

You can probably find a generic fan to replace the whining one. If you take the old one off it might have a label on it showing the manufacturer. Or go water cooling. :D Good luck on an RMA lol

I doubt that there will be a fan with the right dimensions and RPM available to purchase somewhere.

You'd be surprised how generic a lot of this stuff is. It may not be a typical computer fan dimension, but it's likely already been made for another product somewhere else

Hi all, just bought my first EVGA product (3080 XC3) and had the same issue, I made a new thread on it to cut straight to the chase with a video demonstrating clearly that Fan 3 causes the issue, here it is:

Pinged him for more info since I still haven't heard back from EVGA (no support on weekends probably)?
