Pretty much every card these days has it to varying degrees. Just surprised they haven't figured out a way to eliminate it yet.

Bought the 2080ti I will tell you when it arrives if I have bottleneck with my 4700k

I don't think it will at 4k its all on the Gpu.

 

[HRL]

Fair play to you all for slamming down the money for one of the 2080ti cards. It certainly does push 4k gaming past 60fps on AAA titles. I just cant justify the money for what ill get back for my 1080ti strix OC

Coming from an RX480 I can’t wait. Pointless upgrade from a 1080Ti though, unless money no object.

 

[El_MUERkO]

I'm playing Call of Duty with good settings at 120FPS in 4k, now I just need the 43" Wasabi Mango 120hz monitors to drop a little in price and I'm in hog heaven, it'll take a lot to make me upgrade.

Depends on your Res, 30% or so at 4k is reasonably good for that Res. Price is another matter.

My 1080Ti is plenty fast enough. I just fancied something different and new and a bit more power is much appreciated in recent games. I've had pascal since launch and a 1080Ti since launch as well.

Plus i wanted to go to a custom loop again and with my current case a block on my old 1080Ti the glass door wouldnt go on. Reference and it fits with room to spare.

My 1080Ti is going to my brother who usually always gets my cards. I know he will be very happy with it and last him a good few years as it is a solid card.

For TROH

Spoiler

So far card seems great. Build quality is excellent, very weighty although i will be fitting a waterblock very soon.

Nice improvement over my 1080Ti. The witcher 3 for example (and games like it) was getting 110fps with my 1080Ti at maximum overclock. 2080Ti is at 155fps with havent fully tested but at 2025mhz at around 75c. This will be much needed for current games at 4k and while an expensive upgrade, is a nice improvement. Is a bit of new shiny tech to use as had pascal since launch. Looking forward to seeing what DLSS can do.

Only downside i can see to the FE card is no fan control so the card is constantly sat at around 1500rpm at idle with the card at 30c. Which is audible over everything else in the system, but not by much. If i could control the fans i'd be tempted to keep it on air but as is will be fitting a waterblock next week.

The card itself is reasonably quiet even under high load, not much noisier than my old gaming X. Minimal whine which is excellent. Old 1080Ti was quite noisy in terms of buzz/whine.

So far very happy. Will be putting it to good use later on .

Will probably stick an update next week with some photos once i have the waterblock fitted.

Welcome and on TROH.

You are a very generous brother. I think ill stick with my 1080ti Strix for now and possibly upgrade next time or maybe even wait for a 40xx release and then buy the 30xx second hand

Still massively on the fence with the 2080 ti - hoping a few rtx / dlss benchies will help me make my mind up. Thought of more waiting is slightly nauseating

 

[Dumphole]

This only has a 115% max power limit which you can hit constantly with just a mild oc. I can get core clock higher (2025/2050, it fluctuates constantly) if I don't oc the memory but failing that with a +700 on the memory core clock sits in the high 1900's.

I wonder what power draw the redundant cores would use and in turn what this would do to the main core frequency.

I've got +125 on the core and +700 on the memory with 115%/88oC limits, anything more and it crashes instantly.

Isn’t 88C a bit toasty? Or am I misreading that?

 

[Dumphole]

I set it to max but mine is water cooled so tops out at 50oC atm.

 

[Poneros]

I have a favour to ask, can anyone with the 2080ti who has AC Odyssey run the benchmark at 4K high preset but with resolution scales 140% & 200% and let me know how it goes? Cheers!

 

[Dumphole]

I mainly play siege and my 1080 ti struggles to top out my 165hz/1440p panel without a lot of graphical concessions. Some maps result in a high average fps but others at the same medium settings it struggles.

According to Hardware Unboxed the 2080ti averaged 120 ish fps on the siege benchmark at 1440p/ultra so even that was unable to monster its way to a constant and desirable 144fps.

I'm surprised at how much more performance I'm getting. As above, my 1080ti at medium settings would be flat out all the time regardless of map and would get between 125 and 160 fps. It never had anything in reserve.

Now with the 2080ti I have the fps limited to 162 to stay in my monitors gsync range, I have every setting maxed out and the card is rarely at 100% usage.

This feels more like a 40-50% improvement. Still poor value but there's a very noticeable improvement in performance over my 1080ti.

 

[Dumphole]

Also, in heaven the average core frequency I saw was in the high 1900 to low 2000 but in game (see above) I'm seeing highs of 2135 although admittedly that's at less than max usage.
