PNY has some 1080Ti blower cards still in stock for $999. Thought about that then opted to get the Titan Xp from Nvidia. This situation could get worse before it gets better and need a second card on hand should something die. The Xp is a bit of step-up from the 1080Ti in current build--quite a step-up in price however! If anything new gets released and can mine effectively, it won't be available for weeks or months--or prices will be out-of-sight.
