Yeah, they are on separate wires, but I guess the heat waves here in Cali didn't help .

ambient temperatures can make a lot of difference Smiley

Hello!

Asking for some advice from experienced miners...

I've been running a mining rig using EVGA GTX 1070 FTWs, keeping their temperatures under 75C. This morning, one of them caught fire. They've been running for 3 months, with occasional breaks. Have I been pushing them too hard, or should this still fall under the warranty? I'm assuming it's probably the former, but this is my first rig, so I'm not sure what the normal tolerance should be.

Would appreciate any advice.
