30xx Series Founders Edition

I noticed that the FE does not come in an anti static bag - is this not a thing anymore?

I will be selling my 1080ti and usually use the bag from the new card as part of the sale packaging

depends on brand and even model imo. FE models going back few years now not had anti-static, pascal series, well when you got them via AIBs came in a plastic shell no bag. Turing came in foam with plastic wrap and this gen as you say, just in foam. I imagine if they had an issue it would be shaken out in RMAs by now.
 
Happy camper today :D

Think i can live with a bottleneck for a while till i upgrade CPU. You can rest now 980TI, you served me well

I knew I'd get a boost in FPS but seeing it person is just amazing lol

i5 4690k + 2080 was getting 200fps at 1080p with everything set to low.

Now I'm getting:

1080p low - 400
1080p high - 300
1080p epic - 400

4k low - 250
4k high - 180
4k epic - 130

CPU usage is below 20% I think too, what a difference. Before it was 90%

Bare in mind the fps limiter is 400 on OverWatch so I imagine they're actually higher than 400

so you can get them at moment but you are paying a heavy premium on them
Expensive enough already for gaming. I wouldn't pay over FE price for a 3090. They had loads last week too.

3080 has been great. Only played a few games so far (BFV and WF Young blood). In YB I found it was only 35-40% utilised at 1440P at max settings. I realised my monitor was set at 60hz at 1440P for some reason, maybe since an OS reinstall 3 or so months ago :D
