Well I got paid today so now I just got to wait for a card to come in stock. Come on Newegg or Amazon!
Yup.
Its beyond insanity already.
I just grabbed an Arctic Cooling Accelero Xtreme IV for my Titan X.
It has 3 fans.
They make all the difference.
They are blowing the dissipated heat in larger quanitities / volume away from the heatsink as well as cooling the heat sink down with cool air being pushed over the fins. More / larger fans rather than a higher RPM smaller fan will be generally cooler and quieter if you have a nice airflow in your case.
My FTW finally got shipped and should arrive tomorrow or Saturday. Got the confirmation three hours after ordering one from EVGA themselves... well I guess my buddy who is 150th-ish in the etailer queue will gladly take it =)
STRIX in stock at Amazon for the 649 price not the 699 newegg wants. GO GO GO

Shit, I want the G1 tho...
Cheers. RIP in Peace G1 pre-order.

So when the hell can we get the non founder edition/price of what was announced for non founders edition?
like when are those coming out?
Is their a definitive 1080 card that is the clear winner of the bunch? I see a lot of EVGA fans but I know that is because they have the greater market share and customer service.
Thing disappeared a second before I checked out. ):
Edit: Refreshed a minute ago with it in stock and grabbed it!

EVGA Classified clocks are same as FTW, FAIL.
despite being told TWICE that the EVGA GTX 1080 FTW would be posted today by Scan, it wasnt, annoyed as it means it will arrive Monday now
Horrible company, they mislead and bullshit people, I cancelled my order, never again.
never had a problem with them and i order most if not all my computer parts from them.
Considering I backordered it on Newegg a few hours before you and have gotten nothing, I'd say you got very lucky. Or I'm very unlucky.GAF-
I ordered a 1080 FTW yesterday from Newegg at 3:29pm PST.
It shipped today.
It arrives tomorrow.
Did I get insanely lucky or is stock becoming more readily available?
My inno3D 1080 arrived yesterday. It's the "cheap" (and reasonably sized) Twin X2, not one of the larger iChill models.
With very little tweaking I got it stable at sustained 2050 MHz in VR and less challenging games, and settling at ~1950 MHz in the most demanding scenarios. Memory sits at 5.4 GHz (haven't tried more). I'm pretty happy with it.
Also, it came with a decent mouse pad as well as licenses for the full versions of 3DMark and VRMark, none of which I expected, so that's nice. Oh, and the box i smaller than for my previous 970 even though the card is quite a bit larger![]()

Considering I ordered the same thing from them when it was in stock over a week ago, and I paid for expedited shipping and rush processing or whatever bullshit.. And it took 9 days to get here.. I think it's luck.
I refused the delivery. I'm done with Newegg.
Still waiting on mine... Says its slated to ship today but no notification yet.YES! Shipping notification finally. Wednesday!!!2 weeks from now, free Amazon shipping is SOOOOO SLOW
Just thought I'd share my result running Firestrike with GTX 1080 & an i5 3570K:

I thought I'd get better results actually, but maybe my CPU is a bottle-neck?
Also it keeps showing quite low clocks for my GPU memory speed in the final results. Once it showed 667, and now it shows:
![]()
Anyone seen the same behavior?
Does anyone have an idea why 3dmark is displaying an incorrect core clock speed, I believe it's something I noticed with my 980ti as well. Whenever I overclock the core speed it seems to display a default value of 600MHz, is this normal behaviour?
Anyway I've started the overclocking process and so far I'm looking at an increase of 15% over the 980ti. Boost clock of the 1080 was upped by 70MHz
Edit: looping heaven didn't produce any issues with the +70MHz increase, but now I'm all of a sudden getting display driver crashes on desktop.

Not sure about cancelling orders but just to throw another choice of card in your direction you might want to take a look at the Zotac Amp Extreme too. It's got a boost clock of 1911MHz and has the VRAM overclocked to 10.8GHz giving you 345.6 GBps of memory bandwidth.
Ebuyer will have them in stock on Friday apparently and will set you back £672.99, 23 quid cheaper than the same card from Overclockers (who also don't currently have them in stock).
That VRAM overclock out of the box combined with its boost speed should make it the fastest card out there, although I haven't seen any reviews yet. Zotac seem confident about the reliability of it too, they've given it a 5 year warranty. :Oo
