No mention of the on board PWM headers for case fan control? To me that is the big separating factor between this card and all other AIBs. Having a hardware provision so that the case fans feeding air to the card spin up as the GPU temps increase is a big plus for me.

I did not know that, it's a nice feature.

I believe the choice in display connectors has something to do with VR headsets using HDMI (or so I've heard), so they added another HDMI so you could use a VR headset and a monitor that uses HDMI.

Aren't those for voltage measurement?
Still cheaper here than many other 1080's.
Hilbert, you missed to test the PWM headers, but on the other hand you would need to do that with a real world test, which means in a chassis.
Some other site did though, and numbers look really good (max 74C), those PWM headers should be on all 1080's.
To the right you can see SMT traces for more power connectors

It will not be cheap at just roughly 775 EURO

Not sure how he accomplished that but, I can only speak for my own results and back them.
MSI .. aaah .. I used another XML for the spreadsheets, forgot to insert MSI. Will fix that. MSI thus far offers the most silent product. But all cards are relatively silent really. So in the silent category, MSI is the most silent - hope that line made sense
It's true MSI is a bit more silent than the STRIX but this one is also a bit more colder. Would you say that lowering ASUSs fans to compete in noise with MSI will just make both cards equal in noise/temps?
