overclocked to 2.1Ghz with 50'C full load
Mine hold 1500. Well 1506 at a push. Reference EVGA SC. watercooled though.
lol I'm talking about reference cooled ones, of course watercooled cards can hold 1500mhz easily.
Gregster will be along shortly to reply with a post that has a picture of an crooked salesman in a leather jacket holding a graphics card in his hand

Hardwarecanucks got their card to 2123Mhz, and if you check their OC benchmarks you can see that it only resulted in a 12% increase in performance on average (400MHz increase in clockspeed). Don't really get why they don't rerun every benchmark with overclocks.
Have you tried a bios mod?
Pretty sure almost any GTX 980 Ti can go to 1450<, it just takes some tweaking (unless you've got a horrible sample, like my 4770k that cannot go beyond 4.4 Ghz without requiring insane amounts of voltage).I'm not getting a founders edition ...
By the looks of it a 1080 clocked to 2ghz is yielding 25 -35 percent gains.
I just go by what's in my MM account ...
Where are you seeing 25-35%?
Only seen 10-15% so far (15% in the division at 2123MHz.). Computerbase.de were the only ones to compare OC GTX 1080 to OC GTX 980 Ti and the difference was 14% (OC vs OC: linky). That is not really that great when you take into consideration you could buy a used GTX 980 Ti for around 400£ (or even cheaper) so you're essentially shelling out more than 50% more for 14% more performance (£/performance is pretty bad for the GTX 1080 unless the non-reference cards clock better and are cheaper).

So, these things are going to be £619? I'm sorry, but that is price gouging of the highest order (Exactly what I predicted though). I'd say they should be £500 absolute tops. More fool anyone who buys one at launch price.

If we weren't such suckers in this country then the price would be more in line with what the Americans are paying (plus vat obviously).
People will rush out and pay whatever they ask though.

Don't let the door kick you on the way out
In before "It's my hard earn money and I will do whatever I want with it" brigade, who totally miss the point
An extra 5-10 frames at 4k? Its all a bit lacklustre for me. Gains at 1080p are pointless when the 980ti charges at this res anyway.
All this mid-range card talk, how can it be their mid-range card when its the fastest GPU out there...?

at 4k its always been like this 980ti get 5-10fps over 980 too

I fully expect people to come back with that
It's only this country where people will grossly overpay for such items though. Hence why they get priced as such here.
Too many people with more money than sense unfortunately.
I remember when the top end GPU was about £300 and I actually used to buy them. But at more than double that for the 256bit castrated version, I think I will pass again.
I know but that was last gen? I expected massive jumps from 28nm to 16nm? Its a joke.
then you need to compare with 1080Ti
