I buy imports usually brands like msi or asus that have a local warranty and register the device on their website. A lot of people recommend evga for their warranty but I've never bought any. Amazon, newegg and B&H photo are places I've used, just make sure you keep it under the $1000aud import limit. I'm using the MSI gaming x and can recommend it as a very quiet card.

Battlefield1 looked amazing on max settings and was around 130- 150 fps at 5760x1920 , get about 50 - 60 atmDoes anyone know if its a decent card or not as I cannot find any reviews or benchmarks or anything on it much and is that score is ok for a 1080ti and the coil noise is a bit annoying.

I have taken it out atm because the shop said they will take it back if I like, it ran nice and cool didn't get above 50degree in games or benchmarks, I just don't want to have it if there is another that is better « Last Edit: October 02, 2017, 05:42:20 PM by Phil.8 » Logged The sun is the same in a relative way but you're older buellersdayoff RestrictedRacing Full Member Posts: 908 Karma: 31 Re: GeForce GTX 1080 Ti « Reply #10 on: October 02, 2017, 05:42:22 PM » Reference boards are fine, particularly water cooled ones, although personally I steer clear of all in one liquid coolers even for CPU's. Coil whine seems to be a "luck of the draw" thing and can happen to ANY card/make or model. Most people people return their coil whine cards within a few days if it doesn't go away after stress test/ run in. I've never used that benchmark but unigine superposition is free to download, results in pic. https://goo.gl/photos/cFfGP5n6FvGs9VWs9 « Last Edit: October 02, 2017, 06:18:54 PM by buellersdayoff » Logged Phil.8 RestrictedRacing Hero Member Posts: 4158 Karma: 62 Δ8 Re: GeForce GTX 1080 Ti « Reply #11 on: October 02, 2017, 05:45:11 PM » how come you steer clear of all in one liquid coolers, wish i had not taken out already to compare tests Logged The sun is the same in a relative way but you're older Phil.8 RestrictedRacing Hero Member Posts: 4158 Karma: 62 Δ8 Re: GeForce GTX 1080 Ti « Reply #12 on: October 02, 2017, 06:06:18 PM » I also, even if I keep this one or not have a gigabyte 980 for sale about 6 months old and runs cool and looks new if anyone interested in a cheap upgrade or interested in adding a bit of sli action to their setup Logged The sun is the same in a relative way but you're older Joe Hero Member Posts: 2368 Karma: 39 Re: GeForce GTX 1080 Ti « Reply #13 on: October 02, 2017, 06:10:40 PM » Quote from: Phil.8 on October 02, 2017, 06:06:18 PMI also, even if I keep this one or not have a gigabyte 980 for sale about 6 months old and runs cool and looks new if anyone interested in a cheap upgrade or interested in adding a bit of sli action to their setup I was just about to ask you about that. My friend is looking to start sim racing and needs to buy everything including a PC so was gonna ask how much you wanted for your old card EDIT: While talking about you selling stuff did you decide if you wanted to sell your V3s???

I have an old corsair liquid cpu cooler which has air in it (evaporation) and doesn't do the job well any more, it's normal for these things. Plus you can't really top them up. I went with a full custom loop with my pc when I had a 980ti but went air cooled on the 1080ti and kept the custom loop attached to the cpu only.
