Who's ditching 1080 for 2080? (11 series ) ?

I saw someone selling 4x Asus Strix 1080Ti on Facebook on the buy and sell groups for £749 each. They banked on being successful with mining, but it fell through.

I was tempted.

I've ordered one from him

Wow. So your willing to pay what they were priced at new not long back for a second hand card. From a company who are notoriously bad with warranty, especially with 2nd owners

Best of luck!

Ill be selling my STRIX 1080TI so i can buy the next 2080TI. The 1080TI is just not quite there with constant 60fps @4K on most AAA titles.....

Same here, I built my rig earlier this year, picked up a 1080ti as a stopgap until a true 4k card launches (either Nvidia or AMD).

...but by the time the 2080Ti launches, game graphics will have advanced too so you're still not quite there

I never play immediately released AAA games. I always wait for them to be out for a year or so and then pick them up on the cheap. I expect at that time to be able to 4k the **** out of them

.

i appreciate i didnt make this clear in my first post.

Best way now, always sooooo many bugs in new games.

Yup I'm the same, plus in that time they usually roll DLC into the main game as a "complete edition."

Is kingdom come Deliverance still buggy as, that's a game I want to use my GTX1080 on

I also wait but mainly because of the very high price of games on release these days..

Only have to look at God of war 4 to see what PC gaming is missing out in terms of visuals. **** it I'm buying a PS4 pro, I'm done with rip off PC gaming, £1000 GPUs lol.

I got a ps 4 pro and love the exclusive games. I am still happy I dropped 1350 on a gpu and cooling solution for the pc games I play.

Between wow and total war I have played over 1400 hr hours since I bought that gpu. So for me the 0.96p per day I paid for the gpu vs usages was well worth it

Don't let spoffle see your sig. He will have a fit

If Nvidia do end up calling it the 2080, it would be the best

Haha no way!

I'm gonna be patient a little bit longer and see what Summer brings.

I don't think I would wait another year for just for the GTX1180 TI to be released to long I will buy the GTX1080 TI this year again when the price drops

1080Ti is still the best buy now, anything else really isn't.

Unfortunately I have to agree with this statement. PC gaming prices have gone out of control and with the new gen coming it’ll only get worse.
