Its about choice, just switch them off if you dont like them. Believe me, adding a few RGB lights isnt hard, doesnt cost a lot and doesnt require that much development time to do in the interest of customer choice.

its not hard, no. However RGB still affects the bomb cost. it be nice if They offered a version without RGB & put those costs into something worth while.

its not going to happen, but it should. or even just make it cheaper.

Must be one of the lucky ones, no coil whine on my GTX 1080 Ti. I got MSI founders edition.

The stock cooler is noisy and can/will mask the whine. Best way to test is to load up the gpu with a stress test with something like Heaven and see what the card sounds like before the fan spins up.

If there isn't any whine then that's good.

Hi there

80 units of Asus 1080Ti Strix OC arriving at OcUK tomorrow! So the first 80 customers who paid and funds cleared will get their cards Wednesday unless they specified another delivery option. :D

Even better news a further 105 units arriving next week which leaves around 50 cards spare, so get ordering as your will have your card by end of next week if you order a Strix OC now.

Awesome work by Asus to ship such huge volume so early on. :)

I wish it was as easy as that but it is my suspicion that even of they were to do that now they would charge more for the stealth black edition than the Christmas tree version

ORDER NOW




:)
- Black / gunmetal cooler
- Twin fan as was ample for 970
- Black backplate
- Nikel coated black heatpipes
- Black I/O plate
- Coil whine reduction technology
- Uprated power phase


It was mainly focused on aesthetics and low noise, in short it was a huge hit as we managed to sell just shy of 6000 units. :D

I'm still using this card as we speak :D
 
Thanks Gibbo! At last some good news.

Dunno how you guys get the numbers in queue, people messaged me that there is no formal queue for pre-orders :<
