FIRST problem with the GTX 780ti SC cards

5-10-2014

I knew that the Super Clocked version was going to be a problem. Should have stuck with the regular version. The ACX on these cards is not real good in 4 way configuration. Due that they are so close together, they go up in temperature real quick. Had the fan at 100% and the temps going up to 96C.

So one of the fans on one of the cards that is sandwiched between the other cards warped and was not spinning because it was touching the other card.

I have decided to set EVGA PrecisionX to prioritize the temperature on all cards to 82C MAX. That is going to be way below now the clock speed under full load of the card but I will make sure that the GPU's last. I don't want to use water cooling because four card water cooling  is very expensive.

What a setback. Now crunching on only three cards and my RAC will still go down. Let's see how much time EVGA takes to RMA this situation. Already they are giving me problems with the serial numbers on NEW CARDS!!!

I will keep you posted.
