Got mine on Thursday but only got round to installing today as I purchased it as part of a full system upgrade.
Here it is still wrapped in plastic:

Does that thing have any heatpipes that you can see? Let us know how well it cools!

From mine I can't see that it does . just a chunk o ally ;) .... Temps under stock conditions hit about 73-74c avg with stock fans . overclocked to 2000mhz with stock fans it sure climbs to about 85c under load . but a morw agressive fan curve will sort that . I also don't have any intakes just exausts . the cards fair quiet and even ramped up it's slightly audiable but not intrusive .was expecting a plastic shroud .but all metal construction . thankfully .

RTX_2080_2_Cards_RS.jpg


Testing SLI scaling right now. I'll drop in with some results a bit later :)


very nice to see others with 2 cards, i look forward to see what 2 can do and if they are good and scale well i may contact nvidia and canel my rma and rip open my fe cards and go the whole hog and watercool them, on a side note what psu are you runing as i may need to upgrade if all goes well on your end (i have a hx 850w platinum from corsair)

Anyone getting any coil whine? i have the gigabyte OC 2080 and only when i play the latest wolfenstein do i get coil whine its really odd! everyone other game ive tested (AC origins, Doom, WOW)

Could be caused by the card rendering the game at high fps, doom has a cap of 200, from benchmarks of Wolfenstein 2 the game has no cap and go well over 200 fps on these RTX cards.
Try Vsync on or lower the monitor refresh, again with v-sync on.

Are people really buying these? Genuinely surprised. Such lackluster performance increase after 2 years, and the pricing..

I guess people are waiting to try RTX games when they become available? That price though. Dayum..

Def gonna skip this gen and wait for a real upgrade.

Can we leave posts like that out of the owners threads?

I really can’t see how you can talk either Boom when you’ve been a serial spender on top GPU’s over the past few years, now it’s out of reach of an arbitrary limit you’ve set you’re pretending to care.

Yeah a serial buyer that for the first time will be skipping this whole gen from Nvidia. That says it all.

The cost, lack of performance improvement in 2 years. It's like I'm not allowed an opinion unless it's pro Nvidia xD

Come on man, each to their own. Peace.

i have a ftw3 gtx 1080 ti atm, i ordered 2 2080's as the price of a single 2080 ti was laughable at the time, as i said i got back late and was unable to cancel my order via nvidia when the reviews hit, i'm curious to see what 2 2080's are caple of, it must be better than a single card but i need to know first before i canel my return and get both on water, hopefully M1keMK will post some benches of the two cards they have soon

also interested in the performance of 2 cards, more specifically the impact it has on raytracing. Guess I'll be waiting til late october to decide whether it's worth doubling up.
