What's the big deal with "boosts clocks"? All of these cards including Founders will do 1700Mhz+ easily, touching on 2000Mhz isn't uncommon either.

It is basic bum covering. If the cards get too hot, they will throttle but never under the stated boost clocks. In truth, without running AB and just having GPU-Z running in the background, my 1080 throttles but it is still massively above the stated boost clocks, so not too sure why they are so conservative with their stated boost clocks.

I Bought the 1080Ti due to a few things,
i can
not treated myself in a while, last was x34 4 months+ ago
Stuck in pain for so long fancied something to look forward to

can sell my 1080 :D
 
any firmer date on the Asus Strix coming in? I know I;m at the top end of the queue with you guys and really wanted to buy the Strix via OC but I have an order for MSI Gaming X coming tomorrow via another retailer... seems a shame that the lack of clarity from Asus on when the card will actually arrive is costing them $$

No, i will not be pressured by my peers, thankyou. I will deliberate over this decision.

...right, where's the buy button? :p

Seriously though, dunno if i can do it, it's the principle. Somehow i can justify £400 to £500 as it's the price of a console when new.

cost means nothing if you keep it for 5 years :P

Why you would expect a card running higher clocks to consume the same power as slower cards? Use common sense man, can't have your cake and eat it. ;)

320W is correct!

Wow I can remember people saying an r9 290 @ 220W would basically melt your computer and turn your room into an inferno... how times change.

Question, is your current monitor being utilised to it's maximum framerate? If not you need to push the button to gain the return on investment you've already spent on it!
