My EVGA GTX 1080 FTW just burnt a few days ago.
To give you context, i bought this model in 07/2016 and it burned on me on 12/2018, so the card was still on its 3 years warranty.
I received a replacement for it, same model, it just burned AGAIN on 06/2020, so only 1 year and 6 months after i received it.
Of course, if you do the maths we are now out of the 3 year warranty form the original card. I'm kinda pissed at EVGA and don't think i will buy from them again.
Because 2 CARDS burnt on me in the span of 4 years, i'm even suspecting something might be wrong with my pc...
Anyway, now that i know that they won't replace it, i decided to disassemble it to maybe see if it was fixable. I found 2 burnt spot. I'm definitely no expert, but it looks beyond repair to me.
I would love to have a second opinion tho.
Here is a link to photos of the GPU and the 2 burnt spots : View: https://imgur.com/a/CbKPhih
So thanks for answers !
