The Pascal GTX 1080 Owners Thread

eeek

I've potentially got a 1080 FE coming my way soon :O

Its a rainforest warehouse miss price, so I'm not going to get exited until I see it in my hands lol. But as its only one, I think it might slip through the net.

But a couple questions if I may

its got dual link DVI-d right? I can run 120hz through DVI? I didn't have time to check I just mashed the buy button with my face.

Also, whats the FE cooler like to live with? I'm actually running a custom loop, so I guess I'll get a block at some point, but probably not a a while.

I might undervolt it maybe because its crazy overkill for my 1080p 120hz monitor lmao.

Replaced my old sandy system and 290 with this lot. Proper giddy, never bought gear this high end before. Everything runs so quiet and cool it's unbelievable.

Haha I had this exact feeling last week mate , like a kid at Christmas

hardkore · 30 Nov 2016 at 21:51

One thing I can't help though is the mad disassemble of the old system and the hasty reassemble of the new one. Stuff everywhere!

Mines up in the attic I only transfered the hard drive

I thought both of them would have come at once !

Mines just had sign off from Taiwan, now leaving the Dutch :/

I placed the first order for delivery to my girlfriends work. Then I thought "when the hell will these cards ever be this cheap again with Article 50 on the way?" and ordered the second separately.
My girlfriend wouldn't be too impressed with me dropping a grand on my pc in one go so I decided to get the second delivered to my office instead and they arrived different days

So I am running sneaky Sli!

To get on the Roll of Honour all you have to do is post a pic with your user name on it of your GTX 1080.

Need a favor, Can a 1080 owner please set "Prefer Maximum Performance" in the Nvidia control panel, Reboot and then report what the idle voltages are pretty please ?

atomic7431 · 7 Dec 2016 at 08:17

my Evga 0.8930 v at idle clock

starngely my idle overclocked volts are less? @ 0.8500 v

Awesome thanks bud

Apparently this is another 10 series driver bug according to the EVGA forum.

atomic7431 · 7 Dec 2016 at 08:47

driver version 376.09 for anyone who wants to know

Yaayuh! · 7 Dec 2016 at 08:49

I haven't had a Gainward since the good old days (Titanium 3 and 4 era). What are they like these days? (RMA, Quality etc) Are they basically still Palit?

Dicehunter · 8 Dec 2016 at 01:47

My EVGA Powerlink finally came in, Have to say it really does neaten up the look -

Camera is a potato

Jediben · 11 Dec 2016 at 10:15

My potato shot too - I can't move the pc around any further due to shortness of cabling

I've got two of these : http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=6044#kf
But I've had to stash the boxes in the loft before the missus realises I have two instead of one

Dicehunter · 11 Dec 2016 at 10:18

I guess cable management isn't exactly a priority then

Jediben · 11 Dec 2016 at 10:21

The PSU is a 1000w model Antec made specifically to fit the 1200 chassis when it first came out, and it has fixed cables. I've always struggled to manage them because with 4 HDDs and the very small gap behind the mobo tray (it's like 2cm or something stupid like that) there is nowhere to put them that isn't in the main cavity

bayo000 · 11 Dec 2016 at 17:56

Finally got round to installing my 1080

out with old 480

in with new, not bad for £480
