I was playing MOHA - Allied assault when I was rudely interrupted by exploding water heater in the bathroom.
I hope we get more add ons.
PS: You won't get any benchmarking from me for a while. Something is going on with my FTW 1080. A few weeks ago I artifacted in Wolfenstein. Didn't think much of it. Then with the 375.70 driver I tried to run Time Spy/Firestrike at +110/+400. I crashed. Then I tried just +100 and no memory OC. I crashed. I reinstalled drivers and 3DMark. No change. Went to no OC. Once it worked, next time it failed. Went to the 372.90 driver where I gave you my last score (7469). I can no longer run an OC with that driver either.
Chatted with EVGA. MY GPU temp is always good. Although I don't think it is my issue, I asked them about the "Vram heat issue" Tom's hardware posted on the FTW 1070/1080. EVGA doesn't think those additional thermal pads are required but offers them free, user installs them.
After some additional questions and checking voltage which is fine EVGA said it seems like a chip (Nvidia) failure. Since I don't want to go without gaming for a week or more I did a cross ship RMA where they send me a card and then I send them mine. They charge the CC (yikes) and credit it when they receive the old card.
You gotta LOVE EVGA customer service. On the RMA card they said they will install those not required thermal pads for me before they ship it and try to make sure the RMA card is good performer. Man, these guys are GOOD.
Thanks. A little sad to lose my "baby".
Ya, EVGA Tech Support - knowledgeable, smart, amazing customer oriented attitude and not afraid to make a decision. Chatted with them, they told me what to do, filled out the RMA with reasons and it was approved immediately. No worries when dealing with EVGA.
SKYRIM!
