No review yet?
Suprised Greg hasn’t reviewed his yet
On the dying FE card front I was a little worried but have done everything I can before putting block on mine. Given it a good 24hr run at maximum load without missing a heartbeat. Best I can do really as usually when they die they die pretty early on.
But so far so good on mine (fingers crossed).

Sadly no, just not had time and very little gaming time. I don't think I will bother in truth and just enjoy gaming this time.No review yet?

The scale of these failures makes me worry of how many of these RTX cards are faulty and how many out there are ticking time bombs.
My first 2080 Ti FE from nvidia at the moment seems to be holding up ok, no space invader artifacts at least just yet and gaming overall seems fine and very stable for the time being, this card was received on the 22nd and has been running 24/7 since then.
The second 2080 Ti I bought from nvidia again had one dodgy fan (the one closer to the ports) that has a grinding sound even when spinning by hand, other fan was fine. The LED logo was also faulty, red for a second or two and then it changes to orange and stays there, card seemed to operate normally otherwise but only ran it for 30mins roughly so no idea if this card would have failed eventually.
Did an online chat the day I received the second card (24th Oct) and they started an RMA immediately, hadn't heard anything since so I messaged them today (29th) using the online chat again and they are said they are still waiting for stock it seems even though I could happily buy it from the store for over a week and have it in a day or two.
On the plus side they put it through as advanced RMA so hopefully I will get the replacement before I send this back, and hopefully the new one works ok.

Good to see £1000+ gets you great quality. They'll have to up the price further to handle the return costs.

I cancelled my Gigabyte RTX 2080Ti Windforce OC 11GB which now got postponed to the 2nd of December!.
Instead I found another retailer that had Gainward RTX 2080Ti Phoenix Golden Sample 11GB in stock (albeit a bit more expensive) and I should get that card thursday
Interesting, I was also looking for it (after I've cancelled the Duke today) but only found some in Germany.
It will be nice if you could share this UK store for the Gainward GS, even in pm.

I noticed artefacting on my 2080Ti XC Ultra, even on desktop which got me worried. But this was with an OC and was after playing SCVI for a while... it hasn’t appeared since. Although I’m not 100% sure if it’s gone as I’ve had no time to play on my PC over the past few weeks.

Not a bad looking card and a two slot as well, hate 3 slot GPU's.

i wonder if that will be using a lower binned chip?
IF that made it to the uk market for around the £900 mark it will make me regret going for a 1080ti

I've had some weirdness with my Gigabyte card. It is going back. My EVGA XC Ultra is arriving on Thursday which is good. What kind of temps, fan speed and noise are you getting with it?

Those are not artifacts, this is the new ray tracing feature.
European VAT is often 25% Might account for the price difference as US prices don't include sales tax (which varies by state-to-state).
That's not the same card... the $999 one has the part number 11G-P4-2281-KR. This product doesn't exist on the EU website yet. The 1250 Euros card you mention has the part number 11G-P4-2282-KR, which is also on the US site at $1149.
Ah yes good spot. Black edition and black xc edition. Subtle
