I have contacted Zotac in Germany (the country I bought my card) and they were very helpful. They contacted their HQ in Hongkong about my problems. After this they confirmed -by phone- there is a known bug / problem.
The good news is that they also are working on a fix!
This fix is now tested. For this they also wanted my card as soon as possible send to their European technical HQ in the UK. I send my card 31-10 to Zotac and I am waiting for the replacement (with the fix).
I presume the fix is a new bios release? (I believe some other manufacturers solved these issues by raising the default voltages).
