Posted August 13, 2019 Your two most high quality 2080ti options are the Gigabyte Aorus Xtreme and any of the cards from Zotac. Gigabyte has amazing cooling but Zotac has good overclocking. It's really your choice as well as what you like in aesthetics.

Posted August 13, 2019 2080ti's is stupid. SLI is a dead standard for gaming. I really hope you are using these for productivity and not gaming.

Part of it would be for gaming, May I ask why not? I have a 1440p 144FPS Monitor That I wanted to get the most of with a 2080ti and the second one is for I really could do without but It would make life easier Link to comment https://linustechtips.com/topic/1093431-2x-2080ti-question/#findComment-12802905 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously though, nvidia standardized the connector to make it cheaper but the technology still is SLI on RTX cards, you need Quadros to the real NVLink deal 6 minutes ago, Camelsmaycry said: May I ask why not? I have a 1440p 144FPS Monitor That I wanted to get the most of with a 2080ti and the second one is for I really could do without but It would make life easier Simple because of this: Most of your desired to play Triple A games don't even support SLI and Crossfire any more, forcing it on the game will just give you worse performance while consuming twice as much power, really doesn't make sense does it? That is without mentioning how you can make all the FPS you want if you do slight in game adjustments to a point Ultra really is kinda ridiculous as per: With a 2080 Ti you can do all the 1440p144hz gaming you want. Also I agree with @Ciuwas if you gotta buy one of these video cards pick the Gigabyte Xtreme please Personal Desktop": CPU: Intel Core i7 10700K @5ghz |~| Cooling: bq!

Hardly any game i know can scale with probably with SLI. If you looking for GPU for actual work, check out Quadro cards with supported software actually will utilizes the horsepower and full NVLink bandwidth. I mean, it your money. You can spend it how you want it. Magical Pineapples
