Ouch! Can you break it down and get something going on it in the short term?

I have an old X79 ASUS MB with a GTX 1080 Ti Hybrid running once I get all the updates installed and update Ubuntu to the current version.
My thought is should I RMA the Graphics Card being it is an SLI setup or just change out the HC Water Block that I do have on hand.
Any thoughts?
They the EVGA RTX 2080 Ti FTW3 HC Cards.
 
I hope that after drying out my EVGA X299 Dark Motherboard that it is still working, I do not have a backup X299 Motherboard any longer.
I do have an X99 Dark MB (2 GTX 1080 KPE Graphics Cards) that I can put the Cards in and even a brand new X99 Dark MB as well.

Can you swap the block you have and do a cross-ship RMA and when the RMA comes put the bad block on that and send it back?
Unless they do not have a 2080ti HC to send to you and they send a 3080 that may or not be a HC
Hard to tell these days with the GPU shortages.
But I would just swap the block for now anyway if you have a good one for it.
 
Sorry to see you're having so many issues this TDP, hope it gets better quickly. 

Good news is the X299 Dark Motherboard fired right up after drying out overnight.
I have one RTX 2080 Ti FTW3 HC card running now and will also keep the older GTX 1080 Ti running as well in the x79 Ubuntu rig.
I have two HC FTW3 Water Blocks on hand if I need be to replace the bad one but want to wait to see what EVGA wants to do.
You never now they may upgrade both cards to maybe the RTX 3080 HC Cards or even better 3080 Ti HC Cards.
This is the card that was not so good to start off with as well.
I was looking for the Sticker that came off when I first got the card, still looking. The Serial Number is still on the PCIE connector.
Also the box has it as well and I will be using the original box to send it back as well.

Congrats on those Primes

Congrats, guys! 

I was lucky enough to get a Prime last night around 3:30am. 
 The GPU that found the prime was a Evga 1080 that was donated to me from bcavnaugh a few years ago. the 
double checker on that prime was using a 3070 gpu , so I guess older computer parts still have some kick left in them.
 
 So, a big Thank You to bcavnaugh for all the computer parts he has donated
