** NVIDIA GTX 1080 FOUNDERS EDITION: WANNA PRE-ORDER?

I really don't understand what is going on, if you don't like the price, don't buy it. If you don't feel the price is justified, buy something else or wait for the 1070? This card will make bank for Nvidia regardless of what you choose to do, the sense of entitlement is baffling.

Kaap you a big boy don't let the green eye trolls win. ;)

I admire a real aficionado and love all your posts on graphics cards and don't give **** how much you spend, as it is your money after all. :)

As for people saying he is boasting, no he is not he is a real enthusiast on graphics cards. You should admire and support not troll because you are poor and do not understand. :mad:

I wont be buying one because I personally cannot justify the price, but if I had the money just maybe.
But I will read with great pleasure about all you lucky sods that get one. :p

^this, i and many other enthusiasts on this forum enjoys the pics, write ups and benches of your new purchases.
You never come across as boasting at all.
 
Fair play to Nvidia of they can get people to pay the price. I wish lots of things were cheaper but they're not so I either save up, go without or wait for the price to go down.

To all those with the spare cash I hope you enjoy your 1080's. I've spent a lot more on my main hobby. Looking forward to the results :)
 
Guys, if you don't like the price then wait for the board partners! :o

And this IS a high end card, NOT midrange (for those who are saying it is). :confused:

Price is still too high regardless though.

You should do a giveaway once your done with the card :D

Just joking mate :D Though i do beleive you will find that your Titan x will be on par or slightly quicker from game to game. If i remember from a review i watched, a 1430Mhz 980Ti was 2-3% faster than the 1080 so thats atleast on par and if i remember your Titan x was around this core speed or slightly faster?

Aftermarket 1080 is where its guna be at me thinks!

I would love to but it will be the TX being sold to recoup some cash. I am hoping to see about 30% over the TX at 1440P on max OC Vs max OC and my TX does 1427Mhz 24/7, so the 1080 has its work cut out. I am really looking forward to doing some side by side comparisons and might help people who are on the fence.

If you're getting a FE the max overclock isn't gonna last very long before stopping by throttle city. That Scottish guys vid shows examples of it not being able to maintain its own boost clocks never mind overclocks.
 
Whats the deal with the founders edition other than having it early for £100 more? Does Nvidia have a release date for the normal edition, and will it actually be £100 less?

The 'Founders edition' is what the 'reference' card is called now.

The board partners will be coming out with theirs in the weeks following the 27th.

That could well be a good thing for those who have reservations as well. I will be putting a block on mine, so not a heat worry and when I game, I never bother overclocking either but it will be interesting testing.
