i sold my 980ti last night because I was offered $300 on the spot.

I need a card today = (

With you man. Sold my 980Ti for 325 yesterday.

 

[komplanen]

I want to get back into this world so bad :-3

 

[Takamura-San]

I don't want to be without a card, so I have to wait to get the 1080th prior to selling the 980ti. 😫

 

[mysocksarepink]

That seems a bit drastic.

why? Price is dropping

 

[The Futurist]

Right right.

Heh. I have two for sale that come with a Kraken G10 and Corsair H50 that i'd gladly sell for 300 bucks right now.

Well, Fedex hand-waived off their shipping guarantees for today due to storms in Memphis last night.

My card was sitting a few miles from here at 6:30AM and missed the 10:30AM delivery guarantee, but since they have the event logged all bets are off. Fedex guys are probably still at breakfast.

Call them and find out exactly where it is.

Go there and pick it up yourself.

I did that once for a package during a blizzard.

Just for the record, I found an active DisplayPort to DVI-D adapter that works with my 1440p monitor, in case anyone else has the same issue. Relatively cheap too ($30). Just tried this one out and it works. My desktop is displaying at 1440p. It does lock to 60hz however.

I hope it will be a surprise launch of partner cards as well, I want to rip that bandaid off right away and don't have second thoughts about upgrading for weeks while I wait for more cards.

 

[Alo81]

Realistically, how big of an impact will the reference cooler have from a 3rd party cooler? I can wait a week to get a card if it'll be substantial, but if its differences in theoretical maximums rather than practical application I'd rather buy today. Any word?

I don't think you would be looking at some huge increase in overclocking performance with custom coolers.

It's more about temperatures and noise level.

Customs coolers will definitely be cooler and quieter.

About +10% factory OC and about 5-10dB less noise.

Huge decrease in noise and heat levels mostly. Performance gains will be minimal. Which is enough for me to wait for. I have Horizon Zero Dawn to keep me busy

 

[gdt]

So in a few mins?

What sites will have the cards available?

 

[Xyber]

Cards are up on komplett.se, only FE from a bunch of different manufacturers.

So the wait begins.

 

[telasoman]

I think I'm going to try and jump the gun with the founders edition today, and hope the board layout is the same as the Titan X and use my 3rd party cooling setup I have on it.

 

[Skyr]

German Gaf FE's are up on
http://www.mindfactory.de/Hardware/Grafikkarten+(VGA)/GeForce+GTX+fuer+Gaming/GTX+1080+Ti.html

no custom ones tho

 

[cleveridea]

Is it possible to change a cooler on a standard founder edition? If so how tricky and risky is it to breaking it...

There will be water blocks for water cooling. I don't know what the state of aftermarket replacement GPU air coolers are though. Probably not good.

 

[The Futurist]

Not seeing anything on any US sites

 

[Aeana]

Nvidia has them up on their US site.

https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforc...gtx-1080-ti/?ncid=em-ded-gcgx10tlh-10231#shop

Just ordered.

wow shows out of stock for me already

 

[Human_me]

Overclockers.co.uk have them up (https://www.overclockers.co.uk/pc-c...ds/nvidia/geforce-gtx-1080-ti?sPage=1&sSort=3)

Some are £800... ouch

All of them are 'Pre-Order'

 

[gdt]

Yep

Are you kidding. It's 2 minutes!

 

[Jin]

Evga website only shows FE available. FTW and SC is "coming soon."

 

[telasoman]

Yep

Are you kidding. It's 2 minutes!

This is what happened with the 980ti launch. It took weeks to get one where you didnt need to be ready to buy it within 10 seconds of stocking being available.

[kostacurtas]

EVGA SC2 (not available to order yet)

Would like to know the dates for those partner cards, no Swedish site seems to have them listed yet.

I'm playing zelda, so I think I can wait for the custom coolers yeah. Quiet specifically is really appreciated. Thanks yall! My paycheck can keep that $800 chunk now!

 

[Zaph]

No dates on any of the custom cards on OCUK.

Pointless pre-ordering because there's 5 I wouldn't mind buying and I just want the first one released.

 

[Saren is Bad]

I had an EVGA founder in my cart and ready to go but decided I'll just wait for the custom coolers. I always hate this song and dance around new graphics card launches

 

[Smokey]

Can't even get to EVGA site

 

[gdt]

Me neither

Just get it and step but to the iCX. It's what I've done before and I'm doing now.

LOL, I got the confirmation email before the page refreshed.

 

[Xyber]

How does it work with the step-up though? Do you need to send your card first and would you be without a GPU at any point and if so, how long?

 

[gdt]

On the EVGA page but can't add to cart....

 

[Takamura-San]

No amazon, yet. And not DVI??? Word?

 

[cleveridea]

On the EVGA page but can't add to cart....

Same here

 

[mysocksarepink]

anything on amazon? I have a bunch of gift card credit i've been hoarding for this

 

[Nyteshade517]

Newegg has them up on their site...FE only

https://www.newegg.com/videocards/EventSaleStore/ID-2041834

comes with For Honor/Wildlands code

 

[CaptainSmirnov]

Almost ordered again this round but I just bought the Switch and have Horizon on the PS4 Pro to keep me busy.

My 1080 is good too and I'm sure it'll handle Andromeda nicely

 

[The Futurist]

Can't click the "place order" button on the EVGA website.

Ugh

 

[Jin]

And when the custom coolers cards are release we have to do this F5 thing all over again.

 

[Aeana]

Nvidia order sitting at "pending." I've never ordered from them before, so I don't know what this really means. There is a charge or pre-auth on my credit card already, so at this point I'm just hoping that they don't come back and cancel it because they oversold or something.

 

[gdt]

Cmooon EVGA take me to checkout

 

[gdt]

Dammit the whole page is gone

 

[erawsd]

Yeah, can't even get to my profile page on evga. Just says the site is down for maintenance.
