Not at all, here is the order in Power, Speed and Cooling capabilities:

1. Gigabyte Aorus GTX 1080 Ti Xtreme Edition
2. ASUS ROG-STRIX-GTX1080TI-O11G-GAMING GeForce 11GB OC Edition
3. ZOTAC GeForce® GTX 1080 Ti AMP Extreme
4. EVGA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti FTW3 GAMING, 11G-P4-6696-KR, 11GB GDDR5X, iCX Technology - 9 Thermal Sensors & RGB LED G/P/M



I have three Aorus Xtreme and they are shit compared to Palit Gamerock. Palits clock and run stable at 1950mhz, when Aorus just 1890mhz. And they run hotter as well.

Also, if it doesn't have LED, it's not good enough! I have my PC on the wall in my room (the case if called Thermaltake Core), so the esthetics are also important for me.
Oh and also I've tried EVGA's support and it's awesome. Same day replies, overclocking doesn't void warranty and they give you the option to ship a new card before you return the faulty.

I Don't see any MSI card on your list guys, Gaming X or Trio Edition?
MSI Armor is very silent. I think this can make big difference for thouse who have a rig at home...
Very silent and very crap. The MSI Armor are not recommended as mining cards, these flimsy coolers are just not good enough. It's pretty much common knowledge around here.

Guys?

I know this is not quite about Ti but it felt that this topic was the right place for this question:

I currently got 1080 which does 550 sols 118wats and that is a nice ratio...
I have a cool offer to get another 1080 for 600e brand new with waranty, or just wait for 2-3 months for the new NVidia GPUs (they will cost approx 600e).
In those 3 months at this state with this hash ratio I would do around 220e which is 1/3 ROI of that card.

What would you do?

Thanks!

I'd say that if you have such offer  - take it, why? cause you should be able to ROI about 30-40% of your investment within 2 month, and if there would be some delay from nvidia even more then 30-40%.. and as far as I heard there won't be real;y huge gap between todays cards and next gen..

Exactly. My MSi cards beat everything else in my park (Evga, Zotac, FE, Asus, Gigabyte)

2 more days and I'll have one of the best (if not the best) 1080Ti ! The EVGA FTW3 which cost me 950€.

For now I'll stick it into my secondary slot and use this beast solely for mining. After VIVE PRO is released I'll use the 1080Ti 20% for VR gaming and 80% for mining.

As for the new cards, I wouldn't expect them anytime before December. Right now Nvidia has no competition in the gaming sector and they don't seem to mind that much for the 1st place in mining. So why would they release a new card if AMD does not? Just to compete with themselves? I believe their best option would be to lay low until sales slow down.
ZOTAC GeForce GTX 1080 Ti AMP Extreme is defenetly better and faster.
i own one of that. its surely a beast compared to rest all of the 1080ti aftermarket solutions. easy stable at 2050-2088mhz core.

LoL my ROG STRIX-GTX1080-A8G-GAMING does 2050mhz stable core clock.

I have first 3 of list and others (included MSI) and I'd add Inno3D GeForce GTX 1080 Ti X4 Ultra as well - very fast in mining.
I can agree about Gigabyte and ZOTAC, but why there are now Palit SGS or GameRock Premium? They are really good.

I would consider a Ti for about 33% more, knowing it will retain better resale value when the new GPU comes out.
I think, it will cost really much, and i don`t sure that miners will be able to get maximum hash from new cards. It`s still a problem with 1070ti and 1080ti that we haven`t alexis miner optimized for them.

I don't think Ti is worth it, its 1000e (30% price for 20-25% hashrate).
1080 for 600e is best buy Smiley

So you find a hashrate difference depending on the cuda SDK you use to compile?
yes, for some cards and some algos. My compile gives 1-1.5 mhs boost for gtx1080ti in my tests but very tiny increase for gtx1070 (comparing to well-known cuda75 64-bit alexis built)
Do you know a tutorial explaining how to compile on Windows from alexis source code?
