**Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Thread**

For comparison: https://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/ASUS/GTX_1080_Ti_Strix_OC/28.html

So same fan noise under load as strix.

Strix wins on temps slightly 71 vs 69 under load

Auros x wins on performance slightly (looking at 4k)

So basically the 2 cards are as close to call as is possible

Nice, slightly better cooler than the MSI too

Does look a little chunkier in all fairness

2c is almost within the margin of error though. They did mention in the conclusion "So far, it's the best GTX 1080 Ti I've reviewed."

The good feedback for the Aorus cooler has provoked me to put a pre-order in for the Aorus Xtreme 1080Ti at £799.99.

@TNA
^ it is shame no 60hz+ though just yet

Indeed. Lucky for me this is not an issue as I do not play many games that would greatly benefit over 60fps. Plus not like it is easy to get 60fps at 4K anyway

Sorry I'm new here and did not know who is who and I don't really check the whole thread, I'm just getting anxious as it's for a present and I really wanted it for the 8th.

Don't worry about it buddy, there are almost 300 pages on this thread but if you want info go to customer services

Looks awesome dude. What clocks are you getting and do you have coil whine?

 

[Menta38]

Running some tests now, some coile when frames spike very high but thats normal.

Well guys, for anyone who is interested. My MSI GTX 1080ti Sea Hawk X arrived today. I have never owned a Sea Hawk before and I wasn't sure If I had done the right thing buying one.
After overclocking and benching it for several hours today, I am hitting 2088mhz on Heaven 4.0. My fan has never gone higher than 45% on auto and the temps are 59-61c max. I am not sure how these results compare to other "ti's", but I am very pleased with that.
The card is so quiet because the temps don't get high enough to ramp the fan. As a bonus, I have zero coil whine. I think this card will do nicely until the next series comes along

Did you order the Sea Hawk from Overclockers?

No, I actually quoted you in your post yesterday to buy one from another place, you would have received it for Thursday as they were still available.
They were still in stock right up till this afternoon, but now they are also on pre-order.

LOL, I was getting excited then, I ordered the first day when it was free shipping and £829.99 now you have to pay for shipping and it's £899.99

Yeah the prices are crazy now. You were lucky getting it at that price. It is a good job you pre-ordered after all.
I am just impatient as I sold my 1080 a month ago and didn't want to wait a day longer

With P&P it's like £80 saving, just wish they had a date for shipping also I messaged CS to let me know where I am in the queue, but no reply yet I may just give them a ring tomorrow.

 

[Don Kay]

Gibbo Ah! I am 85th in the queue. Hopefully closer to 100 units of Strix OC! :-0

How exactly do you know where you are in the queue if you already pre-ordered it? I can't find this anywhere!

 

[MieszkoT]

my Aorus box contains no details on where you have to register for the 4 years warrenty. is it no longer necessary?

Gigabyte Aorus 'regular edition' (not XTREME) has only 3 years of warranty NOT 4. That's why there is no registration details in the box.
OcUK already rectified their mistake on the product's website + on Gigabyte website is stated that 1 extra year of warranty only get products from Xtreme Gaming Series.

For those unsure if they want a 1080Ti, I did a few games at 1440P with max settings, except Rise of the Tomb Raider, which only had MSAA at x1 instead of x4
