If your going to buy new graphics card buy the GTX 1080 ti cost less than the RTX and performance is about the same for way less money .do a bit of research on youtube there a few reviews that will help u decide..I have 1080 watercooled and overclocked and my results r close to the overpriced RTX PS No Games utilize the retrace tech yet

I'm still gaming with a GTX 650 ffs :crutch:
I'll wait to see what happens with WW3 and then decide on an upgrade.

I also have a 1080 Asus card and am contemplating SLI versus 2080ti. My problem is that I can't find the same 1080 card in stock (canada, memory express my favorite retailer).
My 2 issues with adding card for SLI is availability and the damn things never really drop in price and all of a sudden they are gone. Any tips? I have this same issue with upgrading CPU end of life.
You dont need the same exact card. You can SLI two different cards MOST of the time as long as they are both 1080s.
Just know you may need to get a longer flexible ribbon bridge. Different cards may have the bridge in different places.

I went from a 980ti to a 1070 to a 1080 to a 1080ti over last 3 years......I can't say I've seen spit as far as better anything graphically. However, framerates and smoothness has improved tremendously. I get 130-143 (self imposed BF4 user.cfg cap) fps in BF4. In Battlefront II I get 230 fps.
I ran SLI in my rigs for years but frankly, since the 900 series cards till now....it's not needed in my opinion. Current Nvidia GPU performance far exceeds what our games are demanding in hardware. SLI is an unnecessary expense in My judgement.
My conclusion:
Don't expect a tangible graphical improvement, but with games being more GPU dependant rather than CPU dependant, you can, and will, see performance improvement. Especially with a Gsync monitor. I must say gaming became much smoother and easier with the additional framerates coupled with the advantages of having the Gsync technology. It's worth every penny if your going to game with an Nvidia card.:laser:
I'm very satisfied with my 1080ti. Retired and living off social Security now so I'm going to skip a few roll outs until game code exceeds my cards ability.

Just gonna leave that here.

Not good at all......
Thats a real bloody nose for Nvidia and a real PITA for their marketing department.

You may see the 1080ti's to have an uptick, and Nvidia to soften the 2080's marketing price point.
Another site said a majority of the complaints are limited to the founders addition. I wonder what thats all about.
