Yes, but do you really need to? 1080Ti is 700$, for 30% more performance when you already have a 1080? I wouldn't say it's worth it.

Get another 1080 and have an SLI set up if you want more performance.

yes you are right but i can sell my gtx 1080 for 500 euro to someone which is really good. Then i only have to pay 200 euro to get 1080 ti.

Sure, you could do that, but that doesn't answer the question I asked: Do you really need more performance? Unless you're at 4K or 1440p ultrawide, you wouldn't have any issues playing any game on a 1080...

If the 1080 is not enough for your needs, you can either get another one and SLI for more performance or switch to a 1080Ti. It's really up to you and your wallet...
