EVGA Launches GeForce GTX 1080 Ti K|NGP|N

EVGA Launches GeForce GTX 1080 Ti K|NGP|N

EVGA collaborated with overclocker Vince "K|NGP|N" Lucido to develop their new EVGA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti K|NGP|N Edition. And that means a binned GPU and modifications. 

The card ships with a 1582 base 1695 MHz boost clock. EVGA then guarantees a 2025 MHz overclock tweak, since they do not mention a base clock, that value would indicate to be the dynamic boost freq. They also have a highlighted line there as that tweak is tested with Unigine heaven as baseline. But guys ANY GeForce GTX 1080 Ti can reach that 2025 MHz Boost clock including reference cards. Also that pure copper block looks really nice now, but that is going to discolor and oxidize to green in like a year right? 
---

The GeForce GTX 1080 Ti was designed to be the most powerful desktop GPU ever created, and indeed it was. EVGA built upon its legacy of innovative cooling solutions and powerful overclocking with its GTX 1080 Ti SC2 and FTW3 graphics cards. Despite the overclocking headroom provided by the frigid cooling of EVGA's patented iCX Technology, the potential of the GTX 1080 Ti still leaves room for one more card at the top...and man is it good to be the K|NG.

Featuring iCX Technology, a new efficient heatpipe layout, and edge-plated PCB for improved cooling, the GTX 1080 Ti K|NGP|N is ready to go from the moment you power on and also features:

  • Guaranteed 2025 MHz+ Overclock*
  • Highly-Efficient Digital VRM
  • Dual-slot profile
  • Single-slot capable with Hydro Copper Waterblock**
  • Base Clock: 1582 MHz
  • Boost Clock: 1695 MHz
The product starts selling for MSRP: USD $999. More information, visit this page.

$1000 for a card that's going to be matched by a $400 mid range Volta in 6-8mths, yeah, no thanks.

I wonder what limits this card's BIOS has...

Yup, the custom Ti cards are sure becoming expensive, looking at Scan's site where the cost of a MSI Ti Sea Hawk X is £899.99. A good thing that SLI isn't properly supported for the 1080 series, nearly two grand £ for SLI anyone?
Don't these big prices get NVidia thinking that it will lead to gamers becoming older and older before they can afford PC gaming? And fewer PC gamers generally?

It just takes soooooo long for them to release this stuff!

Any interest I had was lost because of the wait. Same for their Hybrid FTW card, took ages to get released and in the end I gave up waiting and bought their Hybrid SC instead.

I understand they have to do development and the products doesn't just magically appear by themselves but the gap between reference and their hybrid/kingpin cards is too much.

I suppose they don't really care either way. Still got my money!

Two customers buying a 200€ GPU each or one that buys a 1080Ti, which one will be favoured by the industry? I think the answer is quite clear.

But you are right, PC gaming as a hobby continues to increase in cost. Yet again there have been a few tables around where you can see that actually these cards don't increase in cost too much if you compare the older top cards with their release pricing and what you could get today for that money, with monetary inflation in mind.

I'm fairly sure that bringing out these top notch cards would be easy at the launch of such a GPU like the 1080Ti. But then again, EVGA wants to sell 1080Ti FTW cards and FE cards too because maybe their margin is bigger there. But yes, the best cards always come out late in the cycle.

But I'm afraid I can't follow why you complain about the gap between a 1080TI FE and the Kingpin, since first it's available earlier, the Kingpin is quite noticably more expensive, and the difference probably is just a matter of cooling and the right vBIOS, not so much a cherry picked GPU itself. If you read up with AMDbugbear's thread, you can get better performance out of a 1080Ti FE / Hybrid with the right tweaks than any stock Kingpin (and who knows, if silicon lottery is on your side even OC'd Kingpin?).
