And unlike it's triple fan successor it fits in the average case xDThat generation of MSI cooler is very good, it is slim but tall but effective and good build quality.

this is what a world with no competition looks like
This is the truth.
If you're suggesting that the 2080 at £750 is going to offer a better price/performance ratio than a 1080 Ti at £600, you're going to be seriously disappointed. But then I saw in another thread that you've already got your 2080 on order, so I understand your need to push a narrative and justify that purchase.

Agree! The 2080 @ £750 will certainly offer ray tracing (at low FPS!) but ray tracing aside, FPS vs FPS, the 1080ti @ £600 will have the bang for buck crown by a mile!

I'm actually fine with paying £140 more for 5-10% extra performance to be on the latest architecture. It's no different than someone paying extra £140 for a 1080Ti Strix over a Windforce. Except in this case I'm actually getting real upgrade and not just a prettier faceplate.
Gigabyte Aorus has sold out, but more are due today, about 100 but we sold 18 in last hour, so deal is strong.
MSI has now pre-sold around 50, again very strong.
Don't miss out guys! These are proving very popular, no doubt because our price is substantially lower than anywhere else.

So you're now resorting to coming into a sales thread to randomly harass actual buyers because you don't like their purchase decision..
I haven't said ohh look at me
I haven't insulted anyone buying a 20xx series
I just bought a GPU
yeah ok
@Gibbo Send me an order confirmation pretty pleaseGigabyte Aorus has sold out, but more are due today, about 100 but we sold 18 in last hour, so deal is strong.

my account is borked this happens every time I order. No confirmation email but order has gone through
The 1080ti also has more vram and more bandwidth then the 2080 because of the larger memory bus for what thats worth. So you trade vram and pay 20% more for a marginal performance increase which doesnt seem worth it to me.

I have a 2080Ti on order and if SLI was better, would seriously think about canceling and grabbing another MSI Gaming X 1080Ti. Fantastic cards.
The only thing I can see that may make the 2080 better option than the 1080ti is the NVlink feature. If, "that's a very big IF" it works and pretty much doubles the performance when you have 2 cards (And double the Vram).
Then it would be a better option than 1 RTX 2080ti, but then it would cost even more.

I’ll laugh if the 2080 is miles better then 1080Ti. Nvidia want you to believe the 1080Ti is same performance 2080. They need to sell these older gen cards quickly.
Not long now before we see real benches.

Still to rich for my blood if it was £500 yes (yes I no they won’t be 500 ) .

I think we need to wait a few days after the 20th to find out if the performance claims are true, many of the first reviews out will be from those who have signed the limiting Nvidia's NDA.

Been a few conflicting hints around from OCUK too around performance of new cards
. That's the price I think would be pretty decent. Apparently at £600 folks wont be disappointed when the new cards arrive, but I dunno. Was tempted to get one mainly because it'll be cheaper than the TXP I sold and would work well for me for a few years I think. Held off tho.I think they'll be NLA by then

mm potentially, i reckon there will be still lots available around Black Friday and probably Christmas / January. But yeah past that they will start becoming increasingly rarer to find.
