I RMAd for that reason. The first card pulled 82W constantly with certain games with no overclock on the stock OC VBIOS, spikes over 86W. The RMA seems to top out around 77W with 80W spikes. Still technically out of spec (75W), at least it was much better.

They'll likely tell you that it's fine, but for a stock card it most certainly is not, and this is why so many FTW3s cannot pull anywhere close to 500W on the 500W XOC VBIOS. Cards that can use the full 500W seem to top off around 66W PCIE power draw with no OC.

Benchmark scores started moving up again, thanks for the guide it helped a lot! Whew!! I feel free again
