Does the Palit have a backplate on it? I presume not but cannot seem to find a pic of its rear.

Dual - No backplate
Gaming Pro OC - Backplate

Both cards same cooler, but only the Gaming Pro model has the Backplate so I guess it depends if you feel the £60 premium is worth it for higher OC out the box and the backplate. :)

It's pretty unbelievable on the part of Palit that they are selling a top end card for a grand yet decide you have to pay the premium for a backplate!

No its called giving customers an option, everything has an associated cost, by doing that they are able to bring a price to the market lower than others, plus not every user cares what it looks like and its more a product for the system integrator to hit best price point.

If you want the backplate you pay more, simples.
Fact is Palit are undercutting NVIDIA by over £100. :)
 
something like $2 a backplate i think , specially chinese steel . if its not a 2.5 + slot cooler with heavy heatsink, not much need for it. most likely act as a heat trap to be fair . and less work for a water block :D

Plait still trading in Sterling or moved to dollars now ?
 
It would be nice if the GPUS had decent images on the website. you (not me) spending over £1000 on a GPU yet you cant see very well what it looks like, most images are just a box shot with a low res image if the GPU.. then the "does it have a backplate" question becomes irrelevant... :)

That Palits on offer should now have quite a few more images on the webshop. :)
 
so they do.. and now I can see the backplate :) one slight moan... the cheaper model still appears to show a backplate on the photos (probably as they are the same photos).. im just saying the more pics the better on expensive products. The Kolink case for £25 has more pics

Let's get to the facts, it doesn't cost £50 for them to cut a piece of steel that size, use cheap chinese steel it'd cost at most £5 including materials, you can get them on Aliexpress aftermarket for £15-£20 with delivery! Not saying Palit are doing a bad deal, just thought at this price point a backplate wouldn't be too much to ask.

The margins are incredibly tight for the board partners, so what might seem a little to you, for them to swallow up another $20 if that on say 10,000 cards would be $200,000 profit lost, these small savings can make huge differences and when they are operating on slim margins they have to be extremely cautious. Of they can use the saving to try and hit more aggressive price point. At £1049.99 Palit is cheapest with Backplate, they then do the option without for under a grand, they are giving the consumer more options, that is a good thing, never bad. More options the better, no different than buying a new car, you don't get the fancier interior for no extra, its always a cost extra which you can option and pay for, same here, backplate has a cost, as such it cost more.

No different than a car manufacturer like say Ford when designing a car, well we can use these plastic trim fasteners which cost $0.50 each, or we can use these better ones at $0.75, it sounds peanuts to us, but then when they order millions of said fasteners to build cars, that 25 cent saving is hundreds of thousands in profit.

I get what you're saying, it's great that consumers are given choice. Just need amd to help make that choice a bit easier and even more aggressive :D

Also, it's 33% :-p

They could make a card with a backplate for an extra £5 then sell it to the consumer for an extra £20 (still plenty of margin making back x4 of the investment) and make plenty but they decide to try and get an extra £50, it's laughable. If Palit want to give consumer options great but no need to charge so much more just for the backplate.

I will suggest Palit stops giving people options and they just continue with their £1049.99 card with backplate and keep the none backplate for SI's as it seems it causes more confusion and unrest by giving people the option nowadays. ;)

It is what it is, the pricing for 2080Ti is very good and both cards are selling pretty evenly at around 10 units per day each, so its obvious that we have customers who are pulled in by a 2080Ti been under a grand and then also have customers who are perfectly happy to pay the extra £50.

Your also forgetting one major thing in this, the £1049.99 card is overclocked and the overclocked variation has additional cost to the board partner from NVIDIA, the price difference is just not backplate between the two cards.
 
Is Palit offering 2 or 3 year warranty? As per other thread it was reported they are doing three years now?
