The Turing RTX 2080 Ti Owners Thread

Having to RMA my EVGA 2080Ti XC Ultra Gaming - one of the fans is catching the power cable (or a flap of heat shrink) from where it was twisted on assembly. Card has performed brilliantly, but the noise is unbearable.

OCUK have been faster than EVGA to organise an RMA, so I'm just finishing up my Son's Xmas present (his first gaming rig) so I've access to two of everything for testing, then I'll get it sent off to be put right.

It wasn't the cheapest card (I've paid less for full systems), buy the aftercare is what matters most.

Yep, dead easy, exactly as Illuminist said. Just backup the original BIOS before flashing to the new one in case you decide to revert back. Plenty of NVFlash command guides out there online.

I could get rock solid 2100+/8000 on air but it was a bit loud and I tend not to game with headphones on that much, hence I reverted back to the original BIOS and a lower OC.

If I was running it on water I'd still be using the 380W BIOS.

I wonder why some cards have the 3 pcie connectors and more power phases. Wonder if a reference PCB can even deal with that much power. I don't really know what I am talking about. Be good to have the extra horse power, but not at the sake of reliability!
 
Most of the high end 2080tis used over sized power delivery components. Even the reference card can handle up to 500w - and other models with an LN2 bios can go higher than that

The Trio would have been my pick if they gave a better warranty than 3yr for £1170. Such a huge card that seems to oc well and ofc 3 power plugs for bling.

Anyone got any experience fitting something like this?

https://www.overclockers.co.uk/evga...-geforce-rtx-2080-ti-xc-xc2-fe-hs-00b-ea.html

The fans on the Palit are very loud under load. The temps are relatively well under control, but the fans really really go for it. I've fitted a 240mm AIO Rad to the CPU, and the only space left in my tiny case (Raijintek thetis) is on the outflow fan at the back.
Would this cooler give me better temps and lower noise? It seems to be compatible with reference board layouts, which I'm pretty sure mine is.

I'll probably hold off another couple of months anyway, just to make sure the card isn't going to crap out any time soon, as Palit will void the warranty if I remove their stock cooler.

Do your self a favour get a bigger case. the evga hybrid looks nice but you get your self better cooling with the G12 kits over clockers sells hitting 52C after a few hours amb 23C with a 240 AIO playing Control 4k settings maxed thinking of swopping out for a 360 in the near future.

But if you really love your case the hybrid 120 going to be better than air alone.

Who's going to tell them you removed it use hair dryer to remove warranty stickers.
 
Hahaha. Just flash it with the Galax 380W.

All this talk means you’re clearly still thinking about it. :p

Oh interesting...Hadn't thought of that, sounds like a plan.

I like the thetis a lot, it's pretty and it fits the setup - it's reverse ATX so you can actually see it when it's to my left. But it really is limiting. I'll investigate that G12, it looks like it's compatible with a bunch of AIO coolers ... maybe I can find a really good 120mm AIO to use with it. Though the OcUK pages don't list the G12 as being compatible with any 20- series nvidias...

The Galax HOF has up to 450w bios! wtf would happen if I flashed that to my reference card?
Click to expand...

not recommended unless your card is on a good custom loop.

That galax card also supports the LN2 bios - if you enable it that card can pull 800w+ but again not recommended unless it's on LN2. Just check out overclock net forums - there is a guy there that flashes LN2 bios on his air cooled card and it died as soon as his put load on it.

currently got G12 fitted to my 2080 Ti infact I have had one fitted to my 2080, G10 to my 1080 Ti ,1080 ,980Ti best 25 pound ever spent
 
Hello there, not a 2080 ti owner but planning on to become one.

I'm a bit torn of what brand to go with.
My eyes are on MSI trio x and aorus extreme or aorus waterforce AIO.

I was able to find a brand new aorus extreme for £1000 with 4 years warranty etc but from what I've read they run quite hot compared to other 2080 ti cards.
For reference I plan to pair it with a 3900x (cooled by a 240mm AIO placed in front of the case) and also plan to set up the GPU vertically , that should increase the temps even more am I right?
Now I know this would be dumb for some but I selected the 3 cards because of their RGB :cool: , and don't really care about other models.
Next would be the MSI trio xwhich seem to be perfect for every situation and then there's the extreme aorus AIO which I'd love to have but goes almost £300 more and I'm not sure that price is
reasonable for a few FPS increase?

Would appreciate some opinions, cheers.

Anything expect the Aorus extreme unless you're putting it under water.
Click to expand...
Yeah, I've spent the time after writing this reading the Aorus thread, the xtreme on air seems to be a let down the aorus AIO looks ( and performs very well) from what I read but that price, will have to think about it or the MSI, I plan to build my PC in November so still time to decide.

I have been put off by people saying they lost display ports etc. I really can't be dealing with draining the loop again if I mess up. I presumed I could use the IGPU to re-flash if it messed up. I heard the worst case scenario is GPU is no longer detected and you can't even do that anymore.

I like to do my research :-)

Not saying it wouldn't be awesome, but I am veering towards the if it's not broke don't fix it!

That said, I am notoriously indecisive and will probably flash it anyway lol
