Isn't that more than enough for air cooling? Or are these new cards cool enough to handle 1.25V on air?
I remember modding the bios on my Gigabyte G1 980TI to allow for 1.22V, and that was really pushing the temps and noise levels beyond what I was comfortable with.
Is there any reason to cap the voltage there for these cards?
Fans at idle/desktop is a deal breaker I think. Hope other cards are passive at idle. I think EVGA ones say they are

I don't know German, but Google Translate on the article says "On Windows, the new Asus GeForce GTX 1080 Strix OC Edition turns off all three fans. Unlike the Founders Edition graphics card is in this mode, thus inaudible."
Sounds like it's not a problem.
What I mean with "Idle fans" is exactly what you're looking for (I think). The fans don't spin until the card reaches a certain temp/load. Sorry for poor wording

Are there any reviews on the MSI Gaming X card? After hearing about the Strix i'm pretty disappointed.

Comparison of custom GeForce GTX 1080 PCBs on videocardz
Between the 10, 11, 12 and 14 phase power boards, the actual implementation is probably of more interest than the number of phases, however for non-LN2 overclocks, I doubt there will be much real world difference in overclockability (pure speculation on my part, based on history).
I assume we will see another wave (or two) of further customized cards, since these are the ones looking to meet time-to-market requirements for close-to-launch availability.

It was the same story with Maxwell. We'll have to flash the card with a custom BIOS in order to get past the voltage lock.
Still, Maxwell does much higher overclocks on stock volts.
Most cards hit 1400 without going past stock volts, on mine I can hit 1400 without touching voltage at all. Equivalent OC on the 1080 would be 2.3 GHz.

Same /sigh. I wonder if msi can hit the same OC as the strix or not. If it can i'll probably get the msi.
GALAX HoF looks nice. All white and 2ghz factory oc.
I highly doubt that there will be a Lightning this time. They skipped it with the 980, so I'd expect the same here. They'll wait for big Pascal. Seems pointless to make it anyway, since it seems that custom cards are pretty close to their limit out of the box anyway. Overclocker's Dream, Nvidia Edition.
Boost clock on the 980 is 1216 MHz, so going up to 1400 MHz is just a ~200 increase.
Boost clock on the 1080 is 1733, and most cards seem to handle 2000+ just fine. That's an increase of ~300.
NVFlash with Pascal support was released just hours ago, so it shouldn't be too long until we get some really interesting overclock results. Hopefully
There's no clue about any 1080 custom right now on spanish websites, we have to wait until mid june or something.

What's the general consensus on the best 1080 so far for performance and cost?
Not had the chance to look in to each one individually.
Cheers guys

Basically one review of the Strix and two of the EVGA SC but that's it lol
FE certainly isn't the best perf/cost though haha

Whoops, didn't mention I have a 980 Ti. Stock boost on those is only 1075 MHz, so 1400 is a 30% OC.
Yes hopefully modding the bios allows for much higher clocks although there is likely a reason the voltage was locked.

Probably not until 1H 2017.
A little utility that let's you flash your card to a custom/modded BIOS. For overclocking purposes.

I use DDU. I've had problems going from different driver versions of the same card before. I won't rule out MSI afterburner having something to do with it, but if your installing a new card there is no reason not to use it.

The rift needs 4 sub 3.0 ports.
1216 -> 1400 = 15%
1733 -> 2000 = 15 %
Sooo, pretty similar?
It's used to flash your graphics card with custom BIOS.
I see. Well, hopefully the 1080Ti will be able to pull off something similar. The main reason why there's a lock is most likely to keep unexperienced overclockers from damaging their new, expensive card

I honestly wouldn't be surprised if they skip the Ti completely this generation, considering they are unlikely to face any competition from AMD at the high end.
I am predicting this:
Late 2016 or early 2017:
New Titan based on GP102
May 2017:
GTX 1170 - full GP104 (basically an overclocked 1080)
GTX 1180 - cut down GP102
GTX 1180 Ti - full GP102
Basically the same thing they did with 600 -> 700 series. Why even bother trying to outdo 1080 when it's selling for $600-$700 and dominating the high end until well into next year?

Wait... the 1080 is not a full GP 104?

It is a full GP104! I'm just predicting they will reuse that chip for the 1170 and possibly clock it higher.

Why would it be any different to the locks on Maxwell though?

as far as we know its full. that computerbase.de strix 1080 review had no oc potential at all.

Feeling kinda weird about the measurements on evgas site. They have the same size listed for all three cards.
'Founders
Superclocked
FTW
I think I am going to go with the FTW edition.
Its really important for my project that I have perfect measurements because I am fabricating a daughter case to house my GPU externally.
Also the slot length is going to be 107mm regardless because thats a standard size, right? The PCB just goes beyond it.

Try asking on the evga forum. Jacob etc are always there answering technical stuff like that.

It makes me wonder if it is a deliberate hardware design coupled with the locks in firmware/BIOS. If they keep the performance difference between the 1070/1080 more distant, they will inevitably sell more of the expensive card than if the 1070 can be clocked close to it's big brother, as was true of the 970/980.
There may or may not be some basis in this by virtue of the fact that a 1070 is just a very low bin of a 1080. However, as the 1070 is probably going to sell many more units than a 1080 you're going to get some good 1070 bins, so it may be actually a valid technical concern as well as a commercial one.

Cool. Thanks guys.
Looks like the FTW measurements are correct, but the other two are misprinted.

It doesn't. I own a Rift.
2 are actually required. 1 for the headset. 1 for the sensor.
Optionally, 1 for the included Xbox controller. And later on, optionally 1 for the Touch controllers if they ever actually release them.

Nice. I guess GTAV is pretty hard to benchmark though, I see random stuff happening in scenes like people walking and cars passing by which can't be made fixed?
I'm glad people are finally doing benchmarks of overclocked cards though.

that is why the special VR branded GPU has the USB ports.. because the VR headset's box recommends having them.

So based on non-ref comparisons, the 1070 and 1080 clearly do not overclock as well as the 980 Ti, 980 or 970. I think this will hold for AIB cards too.
So if you happen to have a good non-reference 980 Ti, getting a 1070 would be a bit of a downgrade.

It would always be a pointless upgrade, regardless, unless that person has specific power efficiency (or build) requirements.

Or nvidia ends up fucking with driver support (i.e. VR drivers) killing older cards in the process.
I'm hoping it won't be the case.
