The Turing RTX 2080 Ti Owners Thread

That's warmer than most of the AIB cards, though. I've a Strix and Palit card here and neither of them break that when overclocked on the stock fan curve.

Didn't know there were any strix cards out there!

Does it cool much better than your Palit, say clock for clock? I do really like that Palit, thick beefy cooler but the warranty puts me off a tad.
 
My wife and I are seriously considering cancelling our RTX 2080Ti and RTX 2080 orders we made back august 21st. The cards have continuosly been post poned, and now our orders have changed to nov. 29th where they assume the cards will be in stock. This is getting ridiculous, we might as well wait till next year for the next Turing iteration.
 
I just got a guaranteed delivery date for two of my pre orders. Used the scatter gun approach and whacked in 3 orders at an etailer that do not charge until dispatch, got a Gigabyte Gaming OC @ £1100 arriving Monday. Or I can wait until 1st November for £1200 EVGA XC Ultra. Think the Gaming OC though, seems a good card, 2.5 slot 3 fan and good power limit with new bios and I can't wait much longer :D

Nice, i think SLI is a waste nowadays tbh unless your benching, congrats to you though.

I know it’s not the most supported but some of the titles I’ve played have it in the past so looking to bump my res to 4K and see how it goes!

Also I have a 1000D case build going on and frankly one would look lost ;)
 
Newbie question that may have been covered in one of these pages already, sorry!

I run a 1440p 120hz gsync ultrawide and my GTX 1080 is starting to "struggle". ~60fps on a mixture of ultra/extreme settings in Forza Horizon 4.

If I plan on watercooling the card in January, is there any downside to getting the "cheaper" in-stock Palit card now? Normally I just get the strix edition of cards for custom pcb/cooling. But this iteration it seems nvidia has limited the extent of the benefits from custom PCBs.

Assuming there's no warranty issues with Palit and removing cooler, then there is really no downside to that at all. Short of faster cards appearing come January, but is that likely? Doubtful... and if so, they will be even more sillier money than they are now.

Just buy both and keep the worst one as a backup

I'd give Gigabyte a try, update to last bios F3 (up to 366W with max PL):

You may be surprised (in case it's a lucky one) otherwise wait to see the EVGA. ;)

Oooooh, this I did not know! I always thought they were 305w and was getting the XC Ultra (the one I've set my sights on for longest) which had 325w power limit. 366w is insane! Almost as high as the FTW3 Ultra! This changes things :D Thanks!
