Has anyone had any word about the EVGA delivery that was due on Friday ? I dont recall seeing any posts about receiving dispatch emails which is strange

I think it got pushed back to tomorrow.

 

[Mr Lahey]

i wonder what card will be the last to clear pre orders and what date that will be.

just giving you a heads up, as it'll be a warning if I mod was to see it

What cards? I thought just 40 FTW on Monday/tomorrow for the whole week taking the total delivered to just 90 by week end.

fair enough. though i would like to think mods would think about acting on a comment like mine being my comment/experiance with that company can only impact overclockers in a positive way. but thanks for the heads up

If i dont get mine when they are indicating/but not confirming on the 29th might as well cancel.

cant blame you as its been a complete joke, what we all should do is cancel and go over to amd/radeon cards only then maybe the next launch may indeed be a launch

My SC was dispatched Friday.

Regarding EVGA, they 100% got shipment on Friday. There is also an extra shipment coming in Tuesday I believe Ben said and then the scheduled shipment arriving Thursday/ Friday next week.

Anyone know how to change the colour of the lights on 1080 amp extreme? Zotac Firestorm is only allowing me to to change the OC settings

Cheers five stars last I heard the tracking said it would be there Friday . Glad you got yours but Im not allowing myself to be too optimistic about my ftw just yet .Not until I see the dispatch

You need to star out that competitor name you quoted....

My FTW is very quiet (playing GTAV). Far more quiet than my previous MSI 980ti. It maxes at 74 degrees under full load, 56% fan.
It achieves 2050 GHz (seems to be the common max for the FTW, it maxed at 2050 with a higher unstable overclock, a lower stable one still gets 2050).
When the 1080 was first announced, very excited. Reviews came out and expectations were tempered. Playing GTAV and the performance matches the initial excitement.
MSI 980ti: wavered between 74 to 56 fps. 1080 FTW wavers between 100 to 66 fps, mostly staying in the 90's (soild 100fps during stunt races). (on Acer x34).

You see none of those performance figures you gave there are that great

The temps, fan speed and overclock are worse than cheaper cards in stock.

was that from s##n ? as i had that happen to me so i told them to **** off

No, it was another company that has recently been taken over by a big british telephone company...

Sending one back because it "only" does 2050mhz is madness... just keep it.

That's not why I'm returning it. As mentioned previously I also have an FTW on order with OCers. I bought the Strix because it was being advertised as a Strix OC at a decent price. Opened the box and it turned out to be a regular non-oc Strix. I would rather save £50 and wait for the FTW which are better 'binned' chips.

50£ less is a fair point, but performance wise you're not getting anything more, 2050 is almost as good as it gets.
