Got Gigabyte G1 for £410 , but that's if the order will be processed , couldn't resist the order but it's 50/50 to be honest with that site . And RMA is useless with them or non existent so least can be mailed to Gigabyte directly haha
which site

One that compares to big general e-sellers and tries to beat the price . Can't list on here, but if item goes out of stock by someone whom buys directly, you get told after the estimated delivery date is missed then takes ages for a refund :/
Couldn't resist the price , so thought I'd give it a shot, did it once with Asus Strix 1070 and had to RMA the unit, Asus is a pain so can't deal with them directly so took months of fighting to get it sent off :/
Got my eye on this though as a back up
My basket at Overclockers UK:
- 1 x Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1080 WindfForce 8192MB GDDR5X PCI-Express Graphics Card (GV-N1080WF3OC-8GD)= £488.99
Total: £488.99 (includes shipping: £0.00)

Use pliers ! Use them to remove the screws with stickers on , as for the paint on the screws. If a lot flakes off, just repaint and screw in when semi dry

Good set, thin nose type and take your time ! Found laying masking tape around the screw and overhanging the backplate helps, avoids visible scratches
cool i will be like a dentist haha. I carnt wait to get this beast installed.
wud u change the asus back plate for ekwb 1 or not?

You've paid a lot of money for a strix card with RGB, I got Phanteks so I could keep it and plug in RGB. I think now it's easier to mount their block with stock backplate. Keep it !
cheers, is the phanteks any good

And the 1070ti Arrives, will try and take some snaps tomorrow , get it installed. Bench on the Ryzen system and then strip down for thermal Grizzlie
Box to a battering. Must say, PCB and design is so tiny to Aorus and Strix cards haha

Quick super unigine run on Ryzen 1600 @3.9ghz/3000hz system
Reminder of Vega 1080p running Turbo mode
1070ti has the higher lower frame rate but lower highest frame rate, and Vega 56 is the other way around (on turbo mode). Both have the same average frame rate - 29

Did you test the results at a higher resolution?
Good to see the Vega coming out on top slightly. Will be very interesting to see how the 8400 changes things.
I am very happy with the 1600 I got and in recent reviews it seems overclocked it does hold its own against the 8400 as most other benchmarks have the 1600 at stock.

Tested the Ti at 1440p and Vega on 4k with other benchmark tools. Will get around to doing some of those later, have paid copies so don't have to sit through demos which takes up a lot of time haha.
Looking forward to jumping on the 8400- to be honest at its current price, Ryzen is the better choice, if you can get it at £170... Stunning
I'm half tempted to get the i3 8100, just to see if it bottlenecks.
gaming 3 is actually holding up very well at 3.9ghz, VRM temps aren't to bad, is a bit of coil whine but this is a budget board with fewer VRM then the Aorus versions and pumping some volts into it !
