No regrets buying the FE either as I managed to get a stable 2.1ghz oc with custom fan curve and upped power limit. No voltage increase. Did you set up a custom fan profile to prevent thermal-throttling?

Posted June 25, 2016 Author 8 hours ago, Pohernori said: Who's the "we"? Sorry the nvidia club always looks at superior features. So you talking about performance took me aback. Qoute me in the post where i said op shouldn't have bought a 1080 or should regret buying a 1080. Would an EK water block be superior enough? That's the plan. I'm confused as to what these 'superior features' are though. Sure more power phases, more connectors etc. Still can't increase the oc much more than FE (aside from perhaps the Gigabyte Extreme - reported to be able to hit 2.5 on air. Although I'd like to see evidence). Do any of these features beat a watercooled FE? I don't think so.

Posted June 25, 2016 And I'm just here with my 290 awaiting a new cooling setup so the VRMs don't stay at 110 (don't worry, it's not actually the important ones)...

You might want to check out the pricing and performance. Because you're wrong. The more AIB 1080s tested the better the FE looks. Like I said, look at the MSI Gaming X. It was shipped to reviewers with a custom bios to offer the best performance and was even hand picked to be the best examples they had. Costs more than a FE and only offers a single frame of improvement compared to the FE from the tests done by some reviewers. If anyone asks you never saw me.

The Gaming X does run cooler, but it also dumps heat into your case. The FE doesn't have the issues you give it, even Jay proved this. 144hz problem was fixed a driver back, never had the control panel crash and I haven't had a issue with drivers.

I equated saying Nvidia's drivers suck to saying AMD's drivers suck. Because it's the same thing. And 99.99999999999999% of the time when someone says a driver sucks it's pure trolling. What makes a driver suck? That's subjective. I want smooth gameplay and the best fps I can get. If that comes with an eject button I could care less. If anyone asks you never saw me.

Posted June 25, 2016 Author Well this thread changed in tone. It always descends into chaos. I think some people are just too hard to please. I think even if I said - 'bought Gaming X no regrets' someone would say 'Nooooo Should have waited for the 1080ti' As for drivers. I have been AMD forever. Both AMD and Nvidia have bad versions. The FE had fan speed issues after launch. That has now been fixed. My 390's had bad day 1 drivers but they also got fixed. Is it even a talking point? i7 6700k · Asus Z170 - A · MSI GTX 1080 FE · 32gb HyperX 2133 · 2tb Toshiba 7200 Red · 120gb Sandisk SSD · 480gb Sandisk SSD · Fractal Design Define S · BenQ XL2730Z 144hz 1440 Freesync Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
