Is the EVGA GTX 1070 SC ATX 3.0 still Melting??

[gherittwhite117]

Was about to buy this EVGA 1070 but now I'm hearing about a defect of a while ago where stuff melts from heat. Ouch. I see that Amazon is getting new stock. Should the new stock have the fix?

Or can you recommend me a different 1070? I want a COOLER card, heat is bad for me.

Thanks.

They added thermal pads and updated the bios with a more aggressive fan curve to lower temperatures. These updated cards have been shipping since November.
