GTX 1080 vs. 980 vs. 980 Ti: Overclocking Battle

Nice. Still on average about 20% faster than the 1450hmz 980Ti at only 2ghz. All whilst using a massive 73 watts less!

Would be good if custom cards and power connectors do indeed allow you to push further up to 2.4/2.5ghz.

Nvidia just need to sort out the silly price before I will buy one :p

"Changed were made to accommodate high quality components" ....But the "reference" board already uses "high quality parts and amazing thermals" - that bald bloke from Nvidia in that awkward q&a. That's why it costs $100 more...

Personally holding out for EVGA. I cant seem to find any information regarding them think they will hit the market tomorrow?

Only snippets, everything is under NDA. Last thing I saw was that an employee said on the forums some of their range will be available from the 27th but that might just mean pre-order rather than stock.

Well the 27TH is tomorrow lets hope that they allow us to at least pre order. I do wonder how much after marketing is gonan cost. Due to Nvida really screwing us all over this gen with the founders cards.

Not a fan of that new cooler design from EVGA tbh. I liked the understated design of the ACX 1.0/2.0 shrouds. That's a little 'gamer bling' for my tastes.
