    I just bought a 1080ti, I'm going to hold out till 2019 for my next GPU, who's with me??

    I said this when I got a 1440p monitor and a 1070..now I have a 1080Ti but I am willing to wait and probably upgrade in a year or two. Unless someone wants to buy my current monitor I'm not too excited about getting a 4k screen. I think the Ti generations usually can hold out a good amount of time.

    Auros 1080ti Xtreme Unstable

    After some more messing around in BF 1.. I'm not sure what to conclude as to why my FPS sticks around the 70 mark then drops down to 60 and sometimes even 50 or lower. That's when it starts to get some stuttering. According to benches and other users I should easily be getting 90 to over 100 on...

    Auros 1080ti Xtreme Unstable

    It is a nice card although I'm not sure I'm getting the FPS I should be. On some maps in BF 1 on Ultra at 1440p I can dip down into the 60's or sometimes a bit lower. Thought that was strange. Running the latest nvidia drivers and making sure my scale is set to 100%. It usually around 70-100 and...

    Not sure if you need a new PSU. My corsair 750 ran both the evga 1070 ftw and the gigabyte xtreme but I experienced crashes on both by corsair and my new psu the Seasonic X-850. I had to RMA the card. I ended up with a refund and got the Asus Strix OC edition. Runs in all the modes, game, OC...

    My 1070 was an EVGA and it was a very nice card. I would have loved to have the FTW3 1080ti but I didn't want to wait 2 more weeks after being without a gpu for a while. Hopefully your card is fine.

    I had the gigabyte xtreme and had to send it back. It was not stable even on stock clocks. Heaven and bf1 would crash minutes in. I tried everything including a clean install of Windows. Any attempt to even overclock the card to the stated "OC" mode clocks would result in the same behaviour...

    I ended up ordering the Asus strix oc model after my refund. Hopefully no issues with this one when it arrives.

    I was also able to grab an Asus strix oc model yesterday. Too bad evga didn't ship their ftw3 models. I really wanted one of those but I've been without a card for too long since I had to RMA the other one.

    EVGA is better if you have to warranty it. They will ship you out a replacement first as long as you are ok with a hold on your card. I've heard ok stories from Gigabyte and some not so good. My first Gigabyte gpu was the 1080ti Xtreme but I had to send it back because it was defective.

    I'm not sure what model card to go with now. Don't feel like waiting for EVGA and all the others are out of stock.

    Auros 1080ti Xtreme Unstable

    Well it looks like the card was not in stock when my RMA arrived so I got a refund. I paid $750 though because of the game codes. The refund was only $690 since Newegg said they do not refund shipping. I had to contact them and have them refund the game codes too because I did not use them. They...

    Auros 1080ti Xtreme Unstable

    I'm waiting on Newegg now to process my RMA. It arrived Friday in CA. I see that the card is now on Backorder on the website which probably means they will send me a replacement once mine is processed. I just hope I don't end up with a second one that is unstable. That would really be...

    Auros 1080ti Xtreme Unstable

    One guy on AnandTech was able to get his to +275 on the gpu clock. Mine would barely do +25 without crashing. I could not use OC mode at all and it would fail benches and crash my games before updating the BIOS on any mode. Dunno how long i will be stuck with Intel graphics. Hopefully newegg...

    Auros 1080ti Xtreme Unstable

    That is odd but glad yours is working fine. Mine would lock up in games and benches before I flashed any bios on both OC and Game modes, Silent mode seemed ok. Then after the F4 Bios it would only crash/lockup on OC mode. I'm now waiting for a replacement (doubt it will be in stock by the time...
