Kind of a shame it is 3 slots. I really think they could have designed this to fit in 2.
Wait for EVGA then. If I remember correctly they never go higher than 2 slot.

If it doesn't weigh at least 20 kilos, it's not good enough. Am waiting for the refrigerator version; and the tray included for free to carry it. This is too casual for me, i need eXXXtreme performance and solutions.
Oh, and pulsating lightzzzz! Pwnage!111

Irony and a drawn-out sigh aside, i see this "30%" faster a lot. Yet in 1080p (my personal choice) the average difference in actual FPS appears to be a measly 17%. And mind, this is compared to a stock 1080, later models are a lot faster, so let's say 15%, maybe less. Obviously, the difference gets higher as we move up to larger and larger resolutions and i understand why and how. But 15ish% only? That sound right to everyone else?

edit: On a different note, while i respect the reviewer's opinions (they are just that, his opinions), i would have to remind that frankly? No, 3 consecutive slots of space is -not- fine for "most".

Read the benchmark suite more carefully and you will see that while the 1080ti does indeed stretch its legs at higher resolutions, there is also a CPU bottleneck in play for quite a few titles in the suite, especially at 1080p. Max FPS is max FPS...

Basically that serves to confirm that a 1080ti for 1080p is absolutely not a cost effective purchase.

Why would you buy this for 1080p? :/
1440p sounds alot better for high frame rates

@W1zzard Please, what graphic settings do you use in BF1 benchmark? I'd like to reproduce them. Thanks a lot!

Yeah I keep hearing that, and yet when I look at benchmarks almost NO AAA game can be run on Ultra in 1440p at a steady 144 FPS.

30 FPS allows you to play a game, 60 FPS makes it smooth, anything over it is a luxury, and has diminishing returns.
I doubt there would be a lot of people willing to spend few hundred/thousand dollars more to go from 60 to 144 FPS.

I'd say 30fps allows you to see the game not play it very well (not a pleasent experience once you've grown accustom to 60fps+). 60fps+ allows you to play the game as intended without worring about framerate. Everything over that just adds to the smoothness and response time of the game but it's not for everyone because of the steep requirements on the hardware. I play on 1440p with 1080 and generally i get 60-80fps all maxed out depending on the game. Not all games can be maxed out tho (especially RotTR). Going from 1080 to Ti would boost this problably to 80-100fps but not enough to reach 144fps. I think Volta may get very close to that and maybe even exceed it (especially Titan and Ti versions).

there is also a CPU bottleneck

Sometimes i try be circumvent.. it's bad enough i can be a sarcastic bastard at times (and i am), so i do have to try and mitigate, lol

Am aware. My point was that in a review, it's one thing to say:
"it can be up to 30% faster, terms and conditions apply"
And another to just say:
"it is 30% faster". As in always, any resolution whatsoever.

Whether we've grown accustomed to overlooking such critical distinctions, or more importantly, why, is something i leave to others. Already know myself :)

In Assassins Creed Syndicate results in 4K are similar to 1440p? Maybe 1440p test included MSAA, while 4K not?

Also Hitman resutls looks strange, TitanXP is 10 fps slower than 1080ti? My quess is, new Nv drivers (optimized for hitman), were used on that 1080ti, but not on titanXP and all the other cards.

Quick question, were all the tests redone with all the cards in the final list? Can this be used as comparison of performance between gtx1060 and rx480 on the latest drivers?

This solidifies what I said earlier before, no point in custom PCB cards when you can just watercool a FE and get the best experience.

Also single slot :Q__

Can't wait for the Aquacomputer waterblock

I would like the "Point of no return" for FE cards compared to custom cards. When setting FE FAN to 80-100% it will not be able to keep on with custom cards....

That's when I would consider watercooling it.

Maybe that's why ASUS has promised to release a "quiet" BIOS soon, which will change the fan configuration to run at lower noise with slightly increased temperatures.

Upon checking asus official website, it seems they have released the quiet bios,

Under utilities



Any chance to retest the card just for noise and temps?
