    That's one sweet FTW 3 1080TI GAMING GPU and he doesn't play games so how is he going to show/tell us how it performs in games.

    You're a mod. Can't you issue penalties or something?

    OK OldMike I was understanding about your non gaming interests when you were going with a FTW 1080, as I have one but not with your ICX goodies.. But gaming silence about a 1080 TI FTW 3?

    Well if you're not going to at least try a recent game to see how it performs, I'm going to show respect and be silent, silently hoping in the next version of CL you have 20 fans showing.
    Well your incorrect Again ...LOL I was going to get the FTW2 1080Ti card ,and decided on getting the latest version. :)
    As far as CL goes ....long as it does what I want, it can show me 30 fans....don't care.

    LOL! Guess if the thought of CL quadruple fans doesn't scare you into getting into gaming nothing will.

    BTW good choice (if I have it right) on the FTW 3 1080 TI.

    Well I've been waiting for Evga to release the GPU I want for last 2 weeks, still waiting. Evga is suppose to notify me by email when its released. At this moment in time nobody has this updated GPU. Its the EVGA GeForce GTX 1080 FTW2 with 11GHz GDDR5X Memory. I am hoping that maybe after May 22nd it may be released. The Older version is of course available on many places. They both have the same product # thou. Only way to identify the 2 cards is by the box it comes in....Why Evga does not give these two cards a different product # is anyone's guess. So soon as Evga lets me know, it will be ordered... :)
    And he wonders why I have no clue which GPU he's actually getting.

    That was an OLDER Post....I updated my post yesterday ....guess you missed that post# 1719 :) Here it is below.


    Ok guys after waiting to the GPU I wanted to get, I've changed my mind. I have ordered a newer version today. :)
    Should get this card in about 4 days, maybe 5. Think it should be an ok upgrade.... Info and pic below.

    Yes pparks1, that's correct. I'm not sure but OldMike may have been thinking of getting an EVGA 1080 FTW2, then an EVGA FTW2 1080TI, and possibly settled on a an FTW 3 1080TI.

    My point of course is these are ALL gaming GPU's, or as Nvidia says "the way it's meant to be played".
