£8 more than Ebuyer.
argh, overclockers showing some Gigabyte G1 in stock but its £609, vs £559 that I preordered from Amazon. Need to hold out in the hope that gigabyte will supply amazon soonish..
no - its £559 at amazon. It is their basic card, and you shouldn't be paying nearly FE prices for it. They're making £50 off you becuase they have early stock.
really tempting though. Been without a GPU for 2 weeks now

Yeah just seen it on Amazon, fuck that. I'll continue to wait for reasonable prices.
Any word when Gigabyte Xtreme will release?
End of the month according to Gigabyte. They have been good with dates so far so I'm enclined to belive them.

If Gigabyte says June 29th, expect the fuckers to stealth release them on the 28th and not tell anyone.
It's the 29th in the UK when they got released. Maybe they are going by proper time zones.
super clocked
Superclocked. It's a reference board that is overclocked from the factory. It's the same card as their non-SC-1080 which is cheaper, just overclocked. Which you can do yourself.

I'm super salty about Newegg randomly throwing those Gigabyte cards up for sale at like 6 PM PST yesterday after Gigabyte advertised 6/7! 6/7! 6/7! on newegg! for days. I was all prepped and ready to snag one this morning or midnight PST. Of course there are scalpers on ebay all ready selling them for $750 plus.
Didn't Newegg sell them for $720?

$649
I caved in and pre-ordered a G1 on Amazon UK for delivery to Spain. Even paying in GBP it's cheaper for me than paying in EUR. Now I have to wait until Amazon gets the stock and hopefully sends one card my way...
... or until some local stores get the G1 and I can buy it here. Whatever happens first.

And I thought partner 1080 cards were just a mere mystery :OLook what I got.
Enjoy.
Yup. Haven't seen any store around here having anything in stock except for the FE... the shit keeps fucking up my notification setup as well since it takes hours for them to get sold lol
So vBIOS mods are dead for good now? Dang. Oh wait, people say this after every single node shrink.

Somethings wrong here.
Computerbase measured 44db @ load. They measured 33db. 11db is a hell of a difference...

If it makes you feel better I hadn't seen it, so thanks!
Thanks. Lol. I'm just ready to have a card locked down. Don't care anymore. I'm waiting for my new job to start, so nothing else to do but it's getting a little old.
GUSA's Twitter account categorically stated the 7th as the release date only to clarify at the last minute that just Newegg would be getting stock on the 7th. I and others have a G1 pre-ordered on Amazon but the status remains at "Little more time".
That being said, Amazon accepted pre-orders of the G1 at $611 versus Newegg's $649, so there may be a silver lining, especially for AU importers such as myself.

dB measurements have any meaning only when compared in the same testing environment. You can't just compare them between different reviews.
But still, their result seems to be rather low when compared to other cards on their chart. 980TiXtreme is one of the quietest 980TiOCs and it's supposedly louder than Strix? Not saying that this is impossible but we need a third opinion.
Shrug.
They did post that they ordered on EVGA's website when these went up and his ordered shipped last Friday.
