Petri has said he is happy with his Titan V and is not looking to upgrade to Turing.Yes, but those 3 - 1080 series cards are getting worn out by now :D Ha, ha LOL. I'll take those "tired" cards off his hand and "dispose" them properly. Seti@Home classic workunits:20,676 CPU time:74,226 hours A proud member of the OFA (Old Farts Association) |

I'd be happy to toss all 1080's and Ti out if could get more Volta at an affordable price. I may try a TuringTi next summer. When my old cards fans have worn out and died I'll replace the cards.

Hi Petri, will you be able to "virtual" test on a Turing card without physically having one in your possession? Or will you have to debug on actual owners cards when they attempt to use the special app? Seti@Home classic workunits:20,676 CPU time:74,226 hours A proud member of the OFA (Old Farts Association) |

I could use X-term window remotely if the machine had CUDA development environment and gnu C++ and I could deliver source code and off-line benchmark tool with WUs.

I have an Asus 970 Turbo, I'd love something newer, but I'll only ditch the oldest cards since they use more power and do less. The T1 Trust, PRR T1 Class 4-4-4-4 #5550, 1 of America's First HST's |

EVGA has a RTX2080 Ti XC Ultra up on their website. In this country, the best price for this card is NOK13390...the equivalent of ~$1575. For that price, I could get a good 1080 Ti AND a 1080. Now, tell me I should "just buy it", Tom's . For me, the question is whether the huge price difference between, say a 1080Ti FTW2 and this 2080Ti actually yields a corresponding increase in the amount of 'work done'. Remains to be seen ;-) Humans may rule the world...but bacteria run it... |

In this country, the best price for this card is NOK13390...the equivalent of ~$1575. Here in Australia you can buy 2 GTX 1070s for the price of 1 GTX 1080Ti, or 3 GTX 1070s for the price of 1 RTX 2080Ti. GTX 1080Tis are around the same price as an RTX 2080 ($1,200). I'm thinking much of the GTX 1070s stock were bought at the current prices, whereas the GTX 1080Ti stock was bought when the Crypto thing was still going on- once they clear that old stock any new GTX 1080Ti units should be much, much cheaper.

Hope springs eternal :-) Problem is, many of the 1080 Ti models may go EOL in the overseeable future as the production of RTX cards ramps up. I'm holding off on a new card for now, and spending more time gathering the other components I need for my build. Humans may rule the world...but bacteria run it... |

I'm holding off on a new card for now, and spending more time gathering the other components I need for my build. Makes sense. I expect it'll be quite a while till all the GTX 10 series cards are cleared out, and in 6 months or so there should be a few more models of RTX units available, and the soon to be released ones should be much more reasonably priced.

Wonder what the price on a 1 2080ti hybrid will be... |

That's the one I'm interested in. All my future cards will be water cooled in some fashion. The Hybrids don't appear for six months after the normal AIB air-cooled products hit the marketplace usually.

The Hybrids don't appear for six months after the normal AIB air-cooled products hit the marketplace usually. Same here....though I'm considering a full-cover block rather than a hybrid. Blocks should be available before the hybrids, methinks. The folks at EK already have the first blocks up (FE, of course) and expect delivery around September 24th. The EVGA XC and XC Ultra are confirmed to be reference PCBs, so the blocks will fit. More AIB blocks will follow as soon as they get their hands on the cards. I'm sure Aquacomputer will follow suit.

EVGA already released pictures of copperhead version. 2 slot side compared to the normal 3 slot air cooled version. |

Thanks for the push to do some googling. Wondered why I couldn't find any mention of Hybrid or Hydro Copper 2080 cards at EVGA.com. Seti@Home classic workunits:20,676 CPU time:74,226 hours A proud member of the OFA (Old Farts Association) |

It's official- GTX is dead; it's now RTX, starting at 2000. . . I think I'll wait for the RTX2050 :) ... I wonder if that will come in a low profile version ... :) Stephen :) |

Just found some prices listed for those of us here in Australia. . . Still cheaper than teh Volta would have been ... Stephen :) |

He likes to publish photos of their new equipment. (hahaha) Anyway...He published both the hybrid (looks like 3 slots from what I could see) and the Hydrocopper the other day on Twitter.(This one is definitely only 2 slots). Probably be a while before you see anything on the EVGA page. |
