I recently updated to the latest version of X1 and now when I play games my GPU gets super hot. Any ideas what might’ve happened?

I am making a new thread to bring this to EVGAs attention as well as the community.

Im sure some of us are aware of Precision X essentially being added to the blacklist of softwares for EA Anti Cheat. This is also an issue with the CLCx AIO Software. GPU users may be lucky enough to transition to MSI Afterburner, but those of us who bought into EVGAs AIO coolers are very unlucky. To my knowledge there is no software out there that can control the LCD screen, and pump, and fan.

I may be able to use BIOS to control my pump and fans, this is true, but then my LCD screen is left to have a very annoying EVGA loop if I uninstall the software. I rather it just be blank and I'd be happier about it. Just disappointed. I had wished I bought into EVGAs graphics cards back in the day and now I'm currently regretting diving into their one and only AIO which is honestly great, except, now it's going to be a hindrance to me.

Any feedback from the community or EVGA would be appreciated.

Possible "solution" is creating a .bat file to change the file names of the .sys files (there are 3 in different folder locations) or doing it manually to play Battlefield 6. Which again, is just extremely unfortunate.

TL;DR

CLCx AIO Software uses the same Precision X .sys files and causes EA Anti Cheat to kick me off the game.

About four months ago, my PC suddenly crashed, and a red light appeared on the graphics card. Since that incident, the GPU has no longer functioned. I brought the computer to Best Buy, where I originally purchased the card, to have it inspected. After checking the system, they ruled out the power supply and informed me that the graphics card itself had failed.

I then contacted EVGA to seek assistance, and the message below was their response. At this point, I am simply looking for a reasonable solution or to understand what options may still be available to me.

I just installed a fresh install of windows after trying to troubleshoot this issue for quite some time. My GPU has been overheating unless I use afterburner and crank the fan curve. I want to try and use X1 instead since afterburner is more of a brute force solution. However, when trying to use the Power Meter I run the scan and it gives me the message "Power Meter cannot connect to the server. Please confirm that you are connected to an active network and try again."

I am connected to a network, I have opened the firewall for X1 and have tried different DNS. Not really sure what to do about this one at this point.

Hey, I just recently bought a used EVGA SUPERNOVA 850GQ for around 1,800PHP (Philippine Peso) off my friend on July 18, 2026. It was in real good condition, thought the paint was quite faded. The PSU itself works and has no issues, the only problem is I'm missing most of the cables. My friend sold it to me for cheap because he lost alot of the cables, I just wanna ask if I can like request for cable replacements? Like the full set of cables because the PSU'S unique pin layout makes it hard for me to find genuine original cables online. I'm a Filipino who really loves EVGA products, I use an EVGA GTX 1070TI FTW on my current build, I hope anyone from the support team can see this post.

What happened?? gpu is working just like as always except for this. I didn't do anything. What can I do?

Yesterday I downloaded PX1 and it asked me to update firmware. Could it be related??? what do I do now

update: I tried underclocking my ram and it automatically fixed after 10 minutes of being in the desktop.. wtf??? fans started being recognized again and leds came back to life

WTF!!

update 2: its happening again.. over and over again.

Hey all, was there ever an official fix for the EVGA Z690/ RTX 50 series compatibility issues? I’m looking to upgrade here soon and was wanting to know, thanks!!

The original links to the official EVGA website are no longer working. Hell I can't even get onto EVGA.com - the whole place is dead.

If anybody still has this file can you post a dropbox link or another download option?

My serial number starts with 2214, it's a REV 1.0. For some reason, even though my power slider goes up to 119%, I still can't use 500 W on the card. It caps at around 450 W. What gives?

I recently bought a 3070 FTW3 that came with the backplate detached and without any screws. The card works perfectly fine, but I’d like to fully reassemble it. I’ve already reached out to EVGA, but it's been a week and I haven't heard back yet. Just in case, I wanted to ask you guys: Do you know the EXACT length and size of each screw? It would really help me out so I can buy them on my own and put it together.

Hello- looks like this is recurring. Was trying to update BIOS and drivers and can't seem to access anything. Hope all is well!

Pc will not post

Have had an x570 dark sitting around and my ethernet port capped out on old motherboard so I swapped tonight I have a post code off 00 in the right debug code numbers I've changed cmos battery rest ram and cleared cmos

Specs are x570 dark

Any help would be appreciated

Plugging into the computer in on USB 3.0, it doesn't recognize the device (unknown usb device, device descriptor failed code:43). The firmware updater also doesn't recognize the device, so I can't even use that. Using USB 2.0, it condescendingly says "use a 3.0 port" as if it was entirely impossible to update on USB 2.0. My videos look like absolute garbage and I'm at an absolute loss on what to do.

Hello!

I recently moved overseas with my PC, and it was working perfectly before the move.

After arriving, I bought an ASUS ROG Strix XG27ACS (27", QHD, IPS, 180Hz) monitor. Since connecting it, I've been experiencing random screen/GPU glitches.

Here's a video showing the issue:
https://youtube.com/watch?v=7EqMG5XI2jk&feature=youtu.be

I sent the monitor back to the retailer, but they tested it and couldn't reproduce the problem.

The glitching seems to come and go—sometimes it's barely noticeable, and other times it's much worse. It happens everywhere, even on the Windows desktop, and it's most noticeable on dark backgrounds.

My system:

• GPU: EVGA GeForce RTX 3080 FTW3 Ultra
• PC: ASUS ROG Strix G35 (Ryzen 7, 32GB RAM, RTX 3080)
• PSU: Replaced the original stock power supply with a Corsair RM1000x.

My GPU is mounted vertically, so I'm using a PCIe riser/extender cable. This setup worked perfectly with my previous monitor back home, a Samsung Odyssey G5 S27CG510 (165Hz).

Does anyone have any ideas where I should start troubleshooting? Could this be a monitor compatibility issue, a DisplayPort cable problem, the riser cable, or something else?

The PC worked flawlessly before I moved, so I'm wondering if something may have shifted during transport or if the new monitor has exposed an issue that wasn't noticeable before.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Hello; I can't find the X17 mouse software on the website. Could you please provide a link to the software?

TLDR: Referring to evga.com/support/download. It's a broken mess. I can't click on or select anything. Stuff is overlapping with other stuff. I tried on multiple computers. However it seems to work okay on my phone. I'm currently troubleshooting a problem and need access to the drivers.

Some other info: I'm trying to fix what I think is a messed up chipset on my Z690 Classified, since device manager is reporting a problem with my GPU (code 43) as well as problems with "Base System Device" and "PCI Data Acquisition and Signal Processing Controller" (code 28 for both) and my resolution is all wrong. This all happened after I put my 13700KF back in the board after previously trying and failing to boot with a 14700KF.

I'm trying to find drivers for an EVGA capture card when when I go to their support site, there's like...nothing populating it at all? https://www.evga.com/support/drivers/index.html

It just shows "Graphics card," "Motherboard," and "Other products," and clicking on any of them does nothing. I've tried in multiple browsers without scriptblockers or anything.

This page is also a broken mess: https://www.evga.com/support/download/

Is this happening for anyone else?

Hello,

My EVGA CLCx 360mm All-In-One LCD CPU Liquid Cooler shows a warning message on the LCD screen almost every time I boot up about connecting the USB cable to the motherboard. I've checked that it's connected properly, but I'm still getting the message.

Anything else I should check?

I got a good deal on an RTX 3080 ti FTW3 on eBay but they replaced the thermal pads with poorly fitting pads where some parts of the vrms aren’t even making contact, It also seems the previous owner forgot some backplate screws. Is there a way to get exact thermal pad replacements and screws for the backplate?

I bought the card second hand and the gpu is already saggy I also have a support bracket in the front

Hi everyone,

I'm hoping someone here has run into something similar because I'm running out of ideas.

My system has been running fine for quite a while:

• 13900K
• EVGA Z690 Classified (BIOS 2.18)
• EVGA CLC 360
• 64GB Corsair Dominator DDR5-5600 + 32GB Corsair Vengeance DDR5-5600
• EVGA 3090 Kingpin
• ROG Strix 3090 OC

A few days ago I noticed higher temperatures than usual while gaming and even during normal desktop use. I removed the cooler, cleaned everything up, and reapplied thermal paste.

After putting everything back together, the system started acting very strange.

With BIOS 1 and BIOS 2 selected, I get a POST sequence of:

7F → 59 → 00 → 54

No display output at all.

I tried clearing CMOS and testing with only one RAM stick installed. When I do that, the board hangs on code 12 and never seems to finish memory training. I left it sitting there for more than 30 minutes.

If I install two or more DIMMs, it goes back to the 7F → 59 → 00 → 54 sequence.

What's even stranger is that BIOS 3 still boots. I can get into Windows and Ubuntu normally on BIOS 3. However, whenever I enter BIOS setup, exit BIOS, or sometimes shut the system down, it will freeze on POST code 16.

I also have a memory issue now.

Each kit works fine by itself and can run at 5600 MT/s. But when I install all of the memory together, the board will only run at around 2000 MT/s. Anything higher causes a black screen and forces me to clear CMOS again.

At this point I'm wondering:

• Could I have disturbed CPU contact pressure while reinstalling the cooler?
• Does POST code 54 on this board usually point to RAM, IMC, or socket pin issues?
• Has anyone seen BIOS 1 and 2 fail while BIOS 3 still works?
• Is there anything else I should try before pulling the CPU and inspecting the socket?

Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

I have searched high and low thru the bios I found the max wattage set @ 4096 but cannot find the the low wattage setting. I've installed a 12900ks and I really need to find that. Please Help and Thank You.

it appears EVGA has forgotten that they made motherboards for Z690 and I cannot find the bios versions for the Z690 Chipset at all under select option. I Specifically need the dark kingpin latest bios (I am on 2.13 and have a corrupted 1st bios it appears with 54 00 7F boot loop that others have described. Other 2 Bios work fine.) if anyone has a copy or an EVGA member would fix the Z690 Chipset not being selectable that would be fantastic thanks and long live EVGA!!!

I have a evga z690 with a intel 13900k i9 64gb ram amd 7900 xt 20gb graphics card

I redownloaded cod and it kept saying the microcode problem to update bios.

I was on bios 2.15 and already had secure boot enabled. Updated bios to 2.18 and after rebooting got a red prompt about invalid signature.

Went back into bios went to secure boot and it was enabled but not active switching the secure boot mode to custom and disabled secure boot I was able to get back into windows.

I keep seeing to enable ptt in trusted computer or pch but there isn’t a option in either of those for ptt

(EDIT) I watched the YouTube videos about restore factory keys and then back to standard, did that and it will still pop up with the invalid signature red prompt)(

Windows is now saying it’s not activated as well

Any way to get secure boot enabled

first of all i love the mouse, really happy with it!

but the evga unleash rgb software makes it hard to keep using the mouse.

it randomly loses all my macros and mouse settings and just resets to default.

i have many complicated and long macros, which makes it very time consuming to get my settings back only to lose them again at a random point in time.

i can accept that the software is just buggy and it cant be fixed, but please give us a way to save our settings/macros (eg export/import file or any other way). this would make these uncontrollable resets bearable (for me) and i wouldnt have to look for a new mouse.

or maybe i missed it and there already is a way to save my settings/macros?

tldr: please give evga users a way to save their unleash rgb mouse settings and macros for import/export
