Hello, i stuck with this card. It's unstable under load with default clocks. So i downloaded bios from the official gigabyte page. There are two bios versions available: F3 and F3P non of them work. Instruction is simple download, extract and launch .exe but every time i just get massage: Bios version does not match. Doesn't matter which one i choose - same message. I tried to do that in safe mode but it just says Can't read bios version. Plz Help!

Update: I can make it work only after downclocking -60Mhz core lower than factory settings.

Should still be under warranty. RMA it.
 
Yes you should RMA.
I never buy highly overclocked GPU without chance to easy RMA.

How much is boost in games under full load.
Mine Poseidon is Base Clock
Silent Mode: 1570 MHz
Gaming Mode: 1595 MHz
OC Mode: 1620 MHz

On OC Mode boost on 2012MHz, but under water (on air no matter on Mode boost on 1974-1985MHz even if temps are under 72-73C)..
I'm not sure how card recognize cooling with water.... :)
Probably if temps are below 55C max then react different.

GTX1080Ti second hands are excellent investment, for less then half of original price now.
Only negative side is because warranty on most models is not so long any more.
My card is bought later and still is under warranty up to September 2021, I had 22 months warranty when I bought for half of price and I will continue such tradition.

Actually this GPU is second hand. I bought it from the friend who used it for CAD only that's why he never experienced the problem. It's still under warranty but it's gonna be such a pain in a neck cause i live in another small country that doesn't have Gigabyte service center or something like that. TBH i don't expect firmware update to help ^^
