I dislike Asus but in all my overclocking with air, water and LN2, Asus does the job so well.

Good job with the review Greg 
Soldato
Yeah I've decided to send the 1080's back. I'm going to put my Ti's back in after work tonight and get them nicely overclocked. I'll keep a hold of them until the 1080Ti and upgrade then.
10% OC to OC just not worth the price. 1080Ti should be a more justified upgrade for sure and i'll only buy 1080Ti's anyway.
As much as it pains me I think I'm making the right choice here.
Kaap, can you take me off TROH please

I can understand your reasoning Tyler. For me that extra 10% allows me the extra settings for playable frames at 1440P, so mine is a keeper

Did you fit blocks onto them?

What will you do with your TitanX?

That truly is a shame. I just hope i do not end up being disappointed myself

Sell it in a month or so. I need to recoup some funds after spending near £2100 on my PC this month.
What do you do for a living ?

Well if you went under 50 before, and it now does not go under 60, then that would be 20% faster.

Sell crack to kids
I am a crane driver on a port primarily but also drive tugmasters, reach stackers and fork lifts. A fun job but crappy shifts make it harder.

That 10% was my max OC on the Titan X against a stock 1080. It is 20% for the most stock V stock. I assume that was what he meant.
I think your titan x is held back by temps
I think if the temps was as cool as the gigabyte and you had a custom bios on it which would allow you to keep the clocks without going up and down we would see an even closer battle, nice review though and also you can pick up hybrid coolers from evga for around £60 new which is something to think about for people on 980 tis/titan x who want to breath abit more life into their cards
I may rob my bros division and see what the benchies say
ill also use shadowplay to keep it fairCan you post more benchmarks in more games? From those 2 you posted the 1080 barely looks 15% faster than your TX.
Your video gregster.... compared to this... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ux7aH7r1KoI&feature=youtu.be
The 1080 looks much better there compared to your video.
For example the 1080 minimum FPS is as fast or faster than the average of 1070 or 980ti.

Probably due to the CPU they're using, a 6700k @ 4.5ghz will be pushing the minimums up over Greg's 3930k @ 4.4ghz
You might have a point... I think with my CPU (4690k) the 1080 will be about right, eg. most of the time at 3440x1440 the GPU will be bottleneck but also CPU a bit. But with a 1080Tior 1180 etc. the CPU would be the bottleneck a lot more.
