How to disable Ray-Tracing?

21959 & 5613 respectively here with a 1080ti and 4790K @ 4.8, I'm on build 18363, I'd have expected your card to better mine in both, prior to sending it back did you try the same build of 10 that I'm on?

Yes mate.

Added - I installed the new GPU today on a total refresh and updated W10, and there has been no black screens as of yet!

Im installing BFV atm to see how games fair, but im happier to see no issues with blacking out! Also rules out my monitor, which is a big relief as it would be a nightmare to repackage and send back

Update,

Just ran Battlefield 5 there, 3840x1080 on "medium" settings (yes I know I was on high/ultra on the 2080s).

Was (as usual on conquest, 64 man server) and getting around 85fps, which for a 1660 aint half bad!

gpu peak temp : 66c on stock fan curve
cpu peak temp : 66c on stock fan curve

my GPU (unlike the 2080s) was at 100% usage, which im happy with as it means two things!

1) the GPU is fully utilised
2) means that my GPU is the bottleneck and perfect for upgrading in the future! knowing my 3900X has a long way to go

Is ray tracing that much of a drain on the gpu?

Yes, but the OP was running DX11 so it would have been off by default.

Ahhh ok thanks!

Did you have future frame rendering on in DX11? You need that on in DX11 or your framerate will be trash.
