Difference being it will be able to maintain the clocks and more than likely be much quieter than the FE hair-dryer blower.

While I do love the founders aesthetically, they look stunning, am very excited to see non-ref come out and into the hands of owners to see how they go. Exciting times ahead :cool:

Founders edition is like apple design mentality, built for show, not to go. :p

Be interested to see how loud the gigabyte cooler is as its obviously going to make its way onto other cards down the line.

I am 4th in the queue :D

The horrible realisation that I misspelt queue earlier. :(

I fear I'll be pretty far down the list. My payment never processed, probably as I was using wifi out of town with a bit of a dodgy signal. By the time I noticed and got it sorted out over the phone it wasn't until the 3rd.

Hoping the card isn't too popular yet or they have a large shipment coming in.

Every time there's a new nvidia release 8 pack pops in to the reviews or owners thread to have a pop at people buying stuff from the shop he works at... i still dont get it.

i remember he said the same thing when TX and 980ti released in those forums. it seem that he doesn't like the idea of TROH .

Yeah we should be able to hit 2.2 ghz on air I think with a good chip. My better 1080 games stable at 2100 Mhz and benches fine at just over 2150 mhz approaching 2200 Mhz.

I would not be surprised to see some after market designs possibly eek out a little bit more with better cooling / beefed up power delivery. 2.3 Ghz on the other hand I think will be out of the question for most.

Either way be good to see how some of the beefed up cards like classy perform :)
