The Gigabyte 1080 Extreme cards are a complete fail.

A while ago I bought the Gigabyte 1080 Extreme and it would not even complete a 3Dmark stress test with its own OC mode of 1936mhz.
I since bought the Gainward 1080 GLH Edition which OC's beautifully and well beyond the Gigabyte card.
I bought a second Gigabyte card, but this time the Waterforce edition. That card also crashes on its own OC mode of 1936mhz. That will be going back tomorrow and no card made by Gigabyte will ever grace my machine again. Just a bit of advice for anyone thinking about buying one. I am not saying all cards will crash, but it just says something about their QC if two of their cards I bought can't reach their advertised speeds.
