Makes sense to me. Enjoy!Ended up buying an RTX2080, Extra £150 doesn't make a lot of difference to me, plus its payday.

Great choice! If you check the bench threads around here the only card that beats the 2080 is Kaapstads Titan V.
Improving performance?
The RTX 2080's are just like the 1080Ti's when it comes to boost clocks, they all typically boost to around 1900-2000MHz out the box depending on cooler etc. Increase the power limit, set fans higher and they will generally happy to sit around 2000MHz core.
Was playing with Palit Gaming Pro OC today, cooler like 1080Ti Jetstream cooler is very good and extremely quiet.

Oh and if all goes well, its not confirmed yet, but found 1721 units of 1080Ti in USA and its the Gigabyte 1080Ti Black OC model, the reason we've been awarded these is because its a card I designed for Gigabyte so obviously get the first dibs.
We are bringing the full 1721 to the UK, OcUK has committed to 1000 so far, but if our sales are good we shall take the full 1721 units to prevent competitors having them.
The price as long as deal is 110% confirmed tomorrow shall be £579 on pre-order, this is an incredible price, when stock lands it shall increase to £599.
So just a heads up, I can't see myself finding a better deal, especially for such a fantastic 1080Ti, especially such a sexy looking one, it has to be the best yes, I mean it is my design.

I know. But it's pretty negligible. I guess these don't scale all that well in the top end.
Less of the cheek, I can just turn it away you ungrateful sod.
You only need look at competitors, their prices are moving upwards and ranges reducing.
I have some good contacts and as I've helped Gigabyte with R&D in past, this was a nice favour, but hey ho might just sell the lot to miners.
https://www.gigabyte.com/Graphics-Card/GV-N108TGAMINGOC-BLACK-11GD#kf Is this the one you’re talking about gibbo?
It could be the rest of your system. CPU bottleneck maybe? Definitely if you’re still on that 4 core 3820

It's still too expensive but it's good to see you Gibbo bringing the price down one step at a time. I noticed some competitors gone up 
. Maybe closing the gap between it & the rtx2080 as people struggle to justify price gap. Keep it up matey.

No it is because miners are back, RTX sucks at mining at moment so seeing a big demand increase on pascal from miners, so I am sure that is what you are seeing, stock been swallowed up.

Haha. It's just banter come on.
Had crossed my mind..but GPU is at 99%.
Thinking I might order a 8700k and keep it sealed until we know more on the 9xxx series.
Ahh, the weak "affordability" argument. You've just undermined any point you think you might have had when you start suggesting people only dislike the price because they can't afford it. That's such an arrogant and egotistical way of seeing the situation.
