Should I be too worried. It runs fine with -30 -30 clocks. Kinda driving me nuts, not the performance loss ofc. But that it might be a prelude of something to come....
 
Solution
If something happen you will loose the card and price. This crashing is first sign for bigger troubles. Bad mining result. Year ago I bough Aorus 1080 Ti for 400 euros with constant crashing and I send it back. After that Asus Strix 1080 Ti had some weird blinking on screen and this card I also got back. Third one Gaming X Trio 1080 Ti was perfect. And I sold it because I wanted better card.
That's it, no risk.

Good luck.

It was a good deal. I mean its performing pretty great. Superposition benchmark still gives me a 30% improvement over my 1080.

I bought it for 3300.
My 1080 I'm selling, it might go for 2900 or 3300.

I live in Brazil, so I'm talking about Reais, not dollars. 1 dollar = 5,5 Reais, thereabouts
So I bought it for 600 dollars, and Im selling my GTX 1080 for 530 dollars.
