Thanks a lot for your response. I've managed to have success and a noticeable improvement by turning XMP on and increasing the tRFC to 314 and the dram voltage to 1.6. The ram itself is specified 1866mhz 9-10-9 28 at 1.5v. I did try to change the voltage though to 1.55v and had a BSOD within 10...

So what are your cards clocking out of the box without overclocking or switching fan profile? Mine gives me a minimum 1950MHz - MSI Gaming X Trio.

I realise that this is not recommended. I already have these sets though so what I am wondering is the best way to make them compatible in xmp. Both sets are the exact same model of RAM with one set being purchased roughly 2 years later. I've managed to get the system stable with XMP off, but...

Personal preference. I find Windows 7 Ultimate x64 to be the best OS. Windows 8 wasn't a selling point and Windows 10 is competitive, but just not for me. I might set up a dual boot partition for comparison. Before doing so though I'd like anyone else's feedback if they are experiencing this as...

Is anyone else using Windows 7 with this card? I am noticing that I am getting lower FPS than benchmark reviews of the card in quite a few games. Also, I am often noticing the card not making full use of the GPU. i.e. GPU Usage at 50-70% instead of 99-100%.

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

Glimpse through my case

Awesome, thank you! :)

Just played some PUBG on Ultra settings in 1440p 165hz w/ GSYNC. Game was crisp with FPS averaging 120. It fluctuated quite a bit though.

The beast has arrived!

The aorus is a solid choice and imo is the best 1080 Ti card to get (only second to the xtreme model of it). With that said I am going with the 2080 over 1080 Ti just because new tech vs old tech? I would prefer to have DLSS. If you can manage to justify that extra spend get the RTX. If cost is...

Agreed. So I suppose for any cancelled rebate cards the site keeps the extra money as profit. At the current prices for the available stock I cannot even see why any site would want these products if they weren't expecting to make profit. With that said I also doubt other sites are selling these...

Gibbo, are you able to provide any ETA on the 2080 MSI Gaming X Trio card?

@Gibbo Any updates on MSI and EVGA stock arrival?

Has anyone yet received their 2080 MSI Gaming X Trio in the UK?

Has anyone yet received the 2080 MSI Gaming X Trio?

I am still going to get a 2080 strictly because I am in need of a card as my last one stopped working. 1080 Ti might be better value, but the price on it has gone up, or rather not gone down enough. I am still disappointed though and as NVIDIA knows we don't have much of an alternative.

RTX is sort of like having a mobile phone in the 1800s

Well, I appreciate your opinion, but I don't find that to be accurate. Most reviewer's benchmarks I've noticed have different results, but a vast majority show the 2080 FE (Factory OC) either 1-3 FPS better than a 1080 Ti FE (Not factory OC) just as much as they show that same 1080 Ti out...

Grab a 2080 Ti MSI Gaming X Trio then..
