2080TI Recomendations

but have an awful RMA reputation and considering how many issues people have with the 20 series cards that's a risk IMO

That's why you buy products from fully automated GPU assembly lines.

Don't know what's the fuss about the RMA, had only ASUS all these years and never had to RMA anything.
 
Cant recommend the Palit 2080ti enough. I had the 1080,1080ti and now the 2080ti versions of it and its the quietest card I have ever owned. Fans never go above 60% and it chews through 4k easy. Its the Samsung memory version so no problems on that end either.

He is putting it under water though buddy.
Cant go wrong with a 10 year warranty for that price!

No no no :D Not putting it under water ! dunno who said i was tbh, anyway im off down to Ocuk in about an hour to pick something up, still not 100% which one ! :D
 
I use a palit 2080ti oc with bios updated to allow 126% power limit. core overclocked 110, memory 500 and water cooled by a combination of kraken x72 + g12 bracket. Temps in the worst of torture tests barely hit 50c and gaming around the high 40s.

Would recommend staying away from FE editions and sticking with 3x fan versions if going the aircooling route.

Also get a 300A chip version.
 
Yep because the fans will die i have a low usage 1080 thats out of warranty 2yr Zotac and i would base all my purchases on two things after 20 years of buying from here and that is warranty and creditcard protection.

The warranty should be 4yrs or 5yrs and your creditcard gives security that they abide to the claims and promises. So thats basically Gigabyte and Zotac? Gigaman is a great rep too for me its whatever of those two has best RMA for UK but never buy a 2yr warranty founders edition ever period.

Dont forget EVGA's RMA. You can also extend the warranty to 10 years apparently and their warranty is transferable

Thats great. Have you not heard about the issues with the 20 series cards? Memory chips failing at a crazy rate

Oh, I am aware of the issue. So my question is, do you want that card to be put together by humans or by automated assembly line ?

EVGA might have better RMA, but they need it. If you compare google search "dead evga 2080ti vs dead asus 2080ti"

You can get an EVGA XC Ultra for £1099 which is a cracking price, really big thick cooler. EVGA warranty is great and you could also add the EVGA hybrid cooler to your card in the future. If I were to upgrade that's what I would get

dear lord, how long did I sleep?
 
Good card bad company i personally blacklisted them for selling me the 580 OC model with the wrong bios making the card unstable without overvolting manually. And i have since seen them repeat this and probably offer no compensation. I lost money on my resale due to it or they wanted the card for a 28day rma no thanks.

The lightning is a crazy card but how long is the warranty?
