This is exactly why you send peons for first wave then comes the good stuff for those who wait. Jokes aside I never saw anyone of the reviewers mention those issues stated above. I wonder if reviewers were send cards with different BIOS then the users.

Mine wasn't a complaint, I'm just commenting on the possible technicalities of it. I have a feeling that's kinda you know, what we do here?

I still want this card, especially the founders one. It looks so god damn awesome !!
But Tbh, its better to have a little sound problems then buy a similiar priced amd card for half the performance and not to mention the amd's super huge power draw which could be very costly in long term and heat issue that can make my gaming room fells like sahara.
AAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

^-- Troll of the Day winner!! :))))))))

This doesnt sound like a serious issue to be honest and its happened before. It should be an easy bios fix

I spent $530 for a brand new MSI 980ti Golden Edition this month....couldn't be happier :) ....Was looking at the 1080 FE but didn't want to spend the additional $170+

I'd say this card still runs games pretty well at 1080p and 1440p @ 120 & 144hz, damn cool and quiet. I'm sure Nvidia will find a fix, though having already pissed off some customers.

I was a sucker and bought it since I'm an impatient bastard. I can confirm, every 3 minutes while playing Black Desert Online this thing revs up like I'm about to take a trip into the future. Most other games I haven't had any issue. It's honestly the most annoying sound in the world. Read recently though that the fix will be in the next driver update.
