Placed an order for the MIS GTX 1080 Gaming X as soon as I got the email that it was in stock. Instantly got an out of stock email. Oh well.

Anyone had experience with 1 day shipping on newegg? I had an order ship at 1pm today, is it liable to be here tomorrow? Coming from CA to the eastcoast seems pretty far.

that MSI pricing still just seems weird to me...
the Gigabyte G1 has better clocks out of the box and is $70 cheaper...do they think their cooling solution is worth the extra $70?

Dunno about the east coast, but I'm in CA and always get next day with Newegg even when I choose 3-day. It's nice.
There is a shortage of cards and people will pay pretty much whatever they ask. Supply, meet demand.

You managed to get one? Congrats

I guess so
I'm just wanting to get a 1070 which will be pretty impossible as it is...I just hope the Strix or FTW prices aren't as bad
(knowing my luck they will be)

Yup. But not for long. I was able to checkout but I got an Out of Stock email right after I submitted.
Wow, I saw 40min+ and immediately came back here.
Also, LOL about getting excited for an overpriced model. Nvidia has made us mad.
The upside to that is it makes me feel better about going for the 'lesser' gigabyte g1 or EVGA SC at £550-ish vs £620 for founder editions.
He takes the cooler apart from the PCB and show's it off. I thought it was quite interesting.

They popped back up. Grabbed one. Fate.
Edit: It was up for a nanosecond, but luckily I edit all my info the first time and was ready to go.

Never even got an in stock email...
Don't rely on newegg's email notification.
Yeah its up again, pass at that price for me.
Can't you pre-order cards in US? So you get in a queue.

Ah. I didn't get an email from Newegg either. I got an email from nowinstock.net . A direct link to their gtx 1080 page http://www.nowinstock.net/computers/videocards/nvidia/gtx1080/Never even got an in stock email...
Lol. I've been refreshing every so often and I didn't even see it go up. Maybe this is a sign that I should hold off for now.
Yeah, it seems like it's hitting a wall somewhere according to this data.
At any rate, it seems to me that the 1080 at 2050MHz outperforms a hybrid-cooled Titan X at a risky 1400MHz OC by a fair margin so I'm 90% certain I'll be going with a 1080. The only thing I have to wait for now is for nVidia to enable Iray on the 1080/1070.
They both have RGB.
No throttling, can hear the fans spin but can't hear it over the game or traffic outside as it goes past.
Edit: Set fans to silent, temps remain the same, still no throttling.

Has it been said whether the SC is the same board as a reference model or if it's just closely based on it?
I've seen it said both ways
I've seen it said both ways
SC and FTW: EVGA, day 1. Came to ~$685 and $705 respectively after their expensive shipping.
G1: Amazon, $611 rate. ($651 after tax)

Read it instead?
http://www.overclock3d.net/reviews/gpu_displays/asus_gtx_1080_strix_review/1
GPU Boost actually got him to 2050MHz at 68C Max and fans at 49% Max without any overclocking.
Overclocked he was able to reach 2113.5MHz at 70C and 50% Max fans.
Certainly seems like NVidia handicapped this card.
Sounds like everyone should just get the cheapest card they can tbh

Seems like the inherent limitations of moving to 16nm, that everyone should have seen coming, but everyone chose to believe instead that having a ton of power pins and phases would allow EXTREME INSANEXXX overclocks, even though the highly qualified engineers at nVidia determined 8 pins was sufficient for the limitations of the silicon.

Not to be a duche, but I ordered the SC and MSI card. Which do I keep?
Whichever was cheaper for you
Yeah, basically this tbh. I'm glad I lost my FE card now and got this instead, it's quieter and lights up like a christmas tree.
Win/Win.

Edit: Whoops. Only the SC is still in stock as of this edit anyhow.
Edit 2: Lol, and now the SC is Out of Stock. Oh well.

Good call. I just cancelled the MSI.

Most likely. There may also be something to be said about NVidia's reference cooler being better than usual. It may have allowed a higher stock clock than they would have set on older reference designs. And since we view overclocking potential as % above stock, it could be coloring perception a bit.
Regardless, extra power pins don't seem to serve any purpose unless we see a Custom BIOS that allows people to reach 2200+.
Thanks for this! I was able to order the SC. My watch has ended, my wait has begun.
The 980 last time was a pointless product with the existence of the 970, the difference between the 1070 and 1080 this time seems to be bigger, even if the former is still a much better value proposition. Who knows how much the ti would be. The popularity of the 1080 FEs isn't exactly going to deter Nvidia from trying something like this again.

Ouch bad decision. If I had to pick between the 2, MSI all the way.
They will both hit the same clocks and in the UK the MSI is about £60 more! :/

I saved about $100 so I'm good with it. I'll match those OC MSI speeds and enjoy my great CS.
Was browsing Amazon and the EVGA FE was up for a minute. MSI FE is still up for shipping next week.
