Evening gents, bit of predicament here and would like your thoughts. Been sent TWO and sent back TWO Gigabyte Aorus GTX1080 10gbps (Rev 2.0) cards of late as i did actually order the 11gbps version (rev 1.0). Now, i found the two cards for around £520.00 but they were advertised incorrectly so sent them back. I can actually get the 10gbps version for £499.99 (another reason for sending back) but would rather the 11gbps but only place i can find it now is £560.00.

SO would you pay an extra £60.00 for 1gbps increase???

P.S The reason i wanted Aorus is because I've built with a Aorus ultra gaming MOBO and more importantly wanted a front HDMI port on the card for my installed VR front panel, feel free to recommend a similarly priced alternative also if you think id get a better deal

Cheers
 
Yeah looking at that video it averages 3-4fps increase, i wouldn't say thats much of a gain really. think ill stick with the 10gbps for £499.99

Thanks for your help!
 
Great stuff!
Ok no problem, i will get onto that task tonight and post up results ASAP! Did a cold restart after real bench and she loaded straight into windows, no reboots, checked RAM again in CPUz and still 1600, so seems very good!

I was pretty pleased with MAX 65 CPU temp, still shame i didn't realise about a bigger AIO but never mind, will upgrade in future.

I picked up a ACER XZ350CU for £400.00, B grade, only thing wrong is boxed damaged however, bit of BLB by the looks of it at the far left and right edges of the panel. At least it looks like that anyway, could be talking nonsense...Really wanted 1440p at 120Hz+ to be honest but lots of £££s...couldnt really find anything
 
@orbitalwalsh Pics of VR and valley benchmarks mate!
Max temps low 60s for GPU, seems good to me, fans must be working ok! Two 140mm at front, one rear, two up top in push config.

Can we work on getting more out of this card then soon? I cant get my hands on an 11gbps anymore, nowhere has them anymore!
