Don't think you can compare LN2 cooled 980ti's with those 1080s.Just wait till Kingpin gets his hands on those 1080s and applies proper cooling on them
plus drivers will evolve as well..too soon to compare mate

It's 4-Way SLI. The HB SLI connector takes up 2 slots. They can't use it.

Pascal needs a better bios so it can hit 2.8ghz. Pascal has so many limiters on the stock bios.
