We review the all-new Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080 (Founders Edition). The new 8 GB beast based on the Pascal architecture and 16 nm FinFET has arrived. It's cool, it's silent and it rocks hard when it comes to sheer performance.

So what i got from that is,

Wait for board partners way better coolers, because what they said about the 2100mhz 69 degrees is complete bull**** and probably had the AC blowing directly on the card.

Overclocking is really mehhhhhhhhhh on the reference cooler.

it was just a very light workload

compare overclocking on reference 980ti to overclocking on custom ones.

The difference isn't that great in %, it's mainly a question of power delivery and cooling.

Honestly unless you're willing to pay a huge premium for extra performance, 980Ti owners don't have a major reason to buy this one

So, two 1070s in SLi now that they have enough RAM to utilize the GPUs at high res, unlike the 970's...

I might try that again this time.

The best logical thing to do for me is to wait for 1070 with aftermark cooler from asus or msi ! sell my 970 and get the 1070

IF THE PRICE IS RIGHT

Ouch... That totally annihilates single GTX 970. Compared to GTX 980 Ti it's faster than I though. It's a perfect card for 1440p.

I wonder how well custom GTX 1080's overclock... Single 8-pin connector is surely the limiting factor.
