Your single 980ti is 20% faster than 280X crossfire ?
Im looking to upgrade ready for VR when the rift CV1 comes out. Not sure if my current 2x280X cf will be sufficient. If not then im thinking of 2x980ti sli ... considering early reports of the new AMD cards arent upto the task...
One thing i have on my side is time
I can wait since i wont need them till the CV1 is released.... Fast forward summer............

Guys I have ordered a new computer from overclockers the Spectre with a lot of tweaks to it.
One of them is being the graphics card I opted for the 980 TI Classified but I am hearing that is not out for a month? should I switch it to a AC2.0 or Hybrid?
I am in no rush. ty

The 980 ti's haven't come into stock yet, so hopefully Friday is the day.

I'd go for the hybrid, but that could still be a few weeks before stock.
Two different things here.
Acetal is what the visible part is made of, in this case the solid black look, whereas the others are plexi (clear).
Nickel is about what the "cooler" part is made of. If it doesn't say then it will be made of copper, whereas nickel will be nickel-plated copper. Though the nickel-plating does also change the looks on the plexi variants as it has a silver look rather than the copper colour.
So you can get an acetal-nickel. If it is just acetal then it is just copper. Same for the plexi. In terms of this making a difference in performance, no. Nickel-plating just protects from oxidation and corrosion. Most cooling fluids have anti-corrosives in them nowadays anyway.

They're coming! My body is ready!
What card? And is that from OcUK?
Soldato
The Inno3Ds are in stock as per the other thread.
Two EVGA Reference Superclocked one. Not from OcUK, as they didn't have stock, and cost a lot more. With UPS Express included it was cheaper than from here.
Nothing but looks
Ah ok, thanks for clearing that up. I'll just grab whichever is in stock at the time of ordering then as I like the look of all the ones OcUK stocks
Have no experience with Inno3D so I'm going to stick with EVGA and earn some brownie points for my patience
Seem to be getting these in very limited numbers, already only 8 left.
Are you going to get one ?
Waiting on reviews showing sli performance and the new fiji card, if there's enough of a performance bump over 295x2 might be worth it.

I've not seen anywhere cheaper? I get free postage so not sure if that makes a difference?

Not had any MSI stuff, whats the warranty like?
I presume its going to be expensive to post out of UK, if anything does go wrong?

SLI performance is easy to find just use TX scores and knock off 6% or 7%.
