The Pascal GTX 1080 Owners Thread

[Vertigo]

Finally took the plunge.

Going from 1920x1200 with a 970 to 3440x1440 with a 1080

 

[fat4l]

Ok guys....I'm getting ready....Slowly

Cooling:
EK 1080 Fullcover Waterblock - Plexi Nickel
EK 1080 Backplate - Nickel
EK Plexi Terminal

Paste:
Thermal Grizzly Conductonaut - Liquid Metal 73W/mK
Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut - 12,5 W/mk

Pads:
Alphacool Eisschicht thermal pad - 17W/mK 0,5mm - Sarcon XR-m
Alphacool Eisschicht thermal pad - 17W/mK 1.0mm - Sarcon XR-m

I'm hoping to get <40C on load and very low VRM temps as well!

 

[adger1971]

Sorry for being a noob. How do i post photos to my new card?
Thanks

Edit done it

 

[Drollic]

Looking forward to a FTW tomorrow given the six week wait. Fingers crossed.

 

[adger1971]

Wow,waited and waited but...i Love it.
Great card

 

[adger1971]

Double post sorry

 

[CrazyArsedMonky]

Woot!!

Finally the wait is over. I had to almost crash into the DPD driver to stop him though as i never got a text message, so almost missed my alloted window.

So, after 62 days here it is;

To get on the Roll of Honour all you have to do is post a pic with your user name on it of your GTX 1080.​

 

[Vertigo]

The precious has arrived!

Won't have time to install/play until Sunday unfortunately but will have monitor too by then

 

[bakes0310]

Do you think there's any point in getting a evga classified 1080 over the FTW edition when they won't boost any further than each other?
Am I wrong is there a performance difference between the two?

 

[Greebo]

With normal cards there was. No the classified has better power and thats it.

Since the FTW doesnt do any better than a Flounders then its wasted. They even have the exact same cooler.

There "might" be unlocked voltage bioses where the extra power in a classifield "might" give you an extra 50Hz speed but its almost certain you would need to be on water to get that.

I agree, however the cooler isn't the same unless it's been changed very recently. It's a bigger heatsink but with the same fans. The SC has a smaller heatsink compared to both and has the smaller fans.

 

[soundesciple]

So mine came today and I was so excited i nearly through my Haribo's out with the packaging.

I stand corrected then, they looked identical

Yeah you are right, the classified is an inch higher than the FTW! Thats a tall card.

 

[adger1971]

Sorry lads daft question time..If the 1080 cards show 10,000 on memory
then why does it only show me 5005 in benchmarks (Heaven 4 etc )?
cheers all

GDDR5x is double data rate so you multiply by 2 to get 10010

 

[adger1971]

Thanks mate told you it was a daft question So a 1070 with a 8000 mem clock would show 4000?

 

[BriT]

yep

Thanks Brit
