That's good to know, thanks kaap. Have ordered 2 new blocks for tomorrow.
If these are nice and square (which I'm hoping) then will send the other 2 back for a refund.
sorry to say but you've been scammed.. thats why I no longer sell my codes online or if I do its to my brothers friends
you have no leg to stand on because your not technically allowed to sell virtual goods via the site you used its too easy for the buyer just to say code doesn't work when in fact they already used it or sold it on
if you ring paypal up and tell them they might be kind enough to refund the cost out of good will but don't bet on it
I was scammed for the DOOM code
my TXP block is perfectly straight but i have had issue with EK blocks warping other GPUs
here is my old thread from the OCN forums
http://www.overclock.net/t/1471942/ek-fc-780-dc2-warping-pcb/0_40
my 780 DC2 being warped by the block
in the end the problem was one of the stand off's. It was loose and could not be screwed in fully so it was raised a couple of mm from the block
check the stand off's if you can screw them all in fully then great but if they keep turning or are still raised even when you screw it then RMA it

Thanks, Ahh right ok. Well as above i've ordered 2 new blocks for tomorrow, i'll send these other ones back. Inspection wise (standoffs) they all look fine, just looks like the actual acetal is warped. There is actually a small gap underneath the corners of the nickel plate and the acetal too (enough to get a piece of paper underneath).
Screw the four GPU screws in and the pcb is still square, the other standoffs for the other end are 3-4mm below the pcb resulting in he pcb being bent down once installed.
Can place the block against a flat surface and visually see how warped the acetal is.

How is sli working with current games? swore I would never go back to two card setup after watercooled r9 295x2, but with 4k hdr oled tv and NVidia shield tv 2017 streaming (replaced my aging 2nd system) could do with the extra juice.

So I caved in and bought a 1080 Ti evga model On my way home now and ill get the pics up

Fine to be honest but it depends on the games you play. For me it works fine in 99% of the games I play with good optimisation. Only really have problems with ubisoft/bethesda junk.
Probably will be going single card next time more so on cost than anything else as next card should run 3440x1440 100hz without a problem.

k thanks, Bethesda I've got an issue with on 3440.1440 monitor so will be looking to play on tv, so sli is less appealing already (fallout 4). I thought next cards would be less of a jump due to new architecture - hence why I jumped on the TI, vega wasn't an option due to NVidia streaming and g sync monitor. Guess i'll wait and see what happens. At least I managed to sell my 1070 for £330, only a loss of £110 for a years gaming, maybe I can pull it off again with selling TI next year.
Soldato
Ti is perfect for 3440x1440 so I would seriously consider one if you can as it will last a good while.
SLI isn't too bad on FO4/skyrim but by junk I generally mean a poor performing game in the first place even with a single card.

could someone please post a screenshot of heaven benchmark either at 1080p or 1440p, I am trying to see if my results are right, many thanks

Checkout the Heaven bench thread, the last entry in there is a 1080 Ti.

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 Ti.
Nvidia Founders Edition in and working, probably the most PITA stock cooler I've ever had to remove. My loop is far too long but I got seriously fed up with it all so put it together again and thought 'that'll do'. Just doing updates and drivers etc. I'm a 3440*1440 user so if anyone wants benchmarks doing then tag me.
