Any difference in hash rate? Fan speed/tempreture ?

Planning to buy 2x gtxs but can't decide which one of them is worth it.

Okay I own

Five Msi aeros 1080ti
Eight founder edition cards 1080 ti
One Aorus 1080 ti

As far as I can tell the founders cards all seem to be the same.

I have zotacs pnys but I just would purchase what was cheap.
If you buy founders Evga is great with returns so I would get Evga founders if they are cheap.


I like the Msi aero model I have five I got some very good deals 598 , 635 a card.

They are flawless and Msi is okay with returns

The Aorus 1080ti was costly it is fat almost three slots. I spen the most on it .

I will not be buying another.

So Msi aero or Evga founder if prices are low.

That's amazing really, don't you think there's a big difference between FE which has 11,000 memory clock speed and Asus which has only about 1,700 only ?
Even though Asus price is higher than the FE.

That's a typo

Look on newegg you will see the 1708 is the core number not the memory number.

Look the asus strix is a good card.

But it is costly.

I am getting Msi aero's as low as 590 usd so why pay over 779 plus tax at newegg or Amazon.

Cheapest MSI is $699 not sure where you get yours from, i think i will go with 2x EVGA FE , $1400 no taxes is a good deal.

I like Evga  good rma policy  .




An ebay sale  649 - 8% = 597.95 with 6 months to pay no interest no payments

if you don't mind the noise, go with FE and save some $

I have 6 FE + 2 Gigabyte Xtreme. If you push FE to 75%Fan, it's just slightly hotter (a few degrees +) and almost the same performance as the Gigabyte Xtreme. The Gigabyte fan is really really quiet but not worth the extra $ just for mining.

agreed and I have 5 EVGA FE. Earlier RMA a 1070 and EVGA processed it very smoothly.

Also let you know Gigabyte provides 4 years warranty for Aorus cards, could be a plus for reselling. And I heard Gigabyte improved its RMA service greatly recently.

I was worried about if one of my cards went down how difficult it would be to get replaced. How long was the turn around, did they offer to do advanced RMA and cross ship the item? I don't like it when they have to wait and then ship, it's best that they ship and you ship at the same time I hate waiting for replacements.

Thanks.

I have 1 FE card and 6 Aorus card and from my experience I would say Aorus is better in both cooling and hashrate. As others has pointed out its really big almost 3 slot wide and almost 13" in length, costs $720+ and you need enough space between cards to keep the temperature in 60's range but on the plus side you can OC them a lot its power limit goes up to 350w per card and will crunch a ton of hash.

Hope this helps.

palit gainward and k2fa are the best imho they have a very good coolign solution, and the super jetstream is a beast can go very high in hashrate with samsung memory, too ba dnot many coem anymroe with that memory type

[szafa]

I have one Asus gtx 1080 and one Asus gtx 1080ti ,they was easy buy.Zotac is also fine and msi.

[philipma1957]

Yeah a lot depends on price.  I got the 1 aorus  719 and tax at newegg = 780  I have been running it since early april  it earns back nicely.

But I got those msi aero's under 600  they are good and 183 usd is a big price difference.

To be fair if I used the ebay sale for an aorus it would have been 780 - 57 in ebucks or 723

still 723 vs 597 it was an easy choice to get the msi..


also it is summer I get heat capped  so I am gentle on my cards  65-73% tdp   keeps stuff cool and saves power.

So the aorus  pushed has a bigger  tdp.

I guess I am saying  your setup matters a lot.  I don't see me running 20 aorus 1080 ti's this winter. 

But 20  msi aero and Founder cards this winter look possible to me

I will not be able to resell my cards in future it's not cheap in my country, planning to keep them until they are either dead or mining not worth it anymore.
I need a final decision and there are two main important points :
Tempreture is important since it goes up to 45C here, air conditioner is on all the time.
Electricity almost free no need to lower wattage.

So it's either
GIGABYTE AORUS
EVGA FE

Please advice
Thank you

I RMAed evga once, totally it took 7~8 business day to get it back. If you choose advanced RMA (you pay for a new card right away and get $ back later), I guess they could send it out the next day after RMA is approved.

[U253]

Aorus only performs a little little faster, but much cooler/quieter though. Go EVGA FE and save some $.

That's almost two weeks and way too long for me. I'd rather purchase my GPU's from something like the Swedish Webhallen or German Mindfactory. I sent back a broken R9 Fury to Mindfactory a few months ago. I shipped the GPU from Sweden on a Tuesday. I had the new GPU delivered to my door on Friday the same week. They obviously paid for shipping back and forth since it was under warranty.

You will find, under this, all the available 1080 Ti cards, with their Clock speed and Boost Speed.
What would be the hashing difference between a Founder Edition card (1480 MHz / 1582 MHz) and the GALAX GTX 1080 Ti HOF Limited Edition (1645 MHz / 1759 MHz) ?
