In 4K that's not currently possible. If you can get the 1080ti for a decent price than go for it, but honestly I would not do it.

Hi all,

 

I am thinking of selling my Vega 64's and buying a ASUS Strix 1080ti, I have found recently that my 2 Vega's had some serious lag running Watch Dogs 2 at 3840x2160 on ultra. What are some thoughts on this plan? Or should I go for a different set up?

Just turn down anti aliasing. Even FXAA will do with a resolution this high

Until he has to buy a 1080Ti... GPU prices are absolutely nuts right now. I paid less for my entire system than my GPU has inflated to.

Evga still sells them at MSRP on the official evga store, they are super anal about only allowing 1 purchase.

I don't like the sound of that but I was starting to suspect this.

I guess that block chains are not going anywhere anytime soon, so we might have to come to grips with this and that this is the new pricing system. Sad reality :(

Is there a way to pre order 1 card from them? If we can get a uninflated card from the retailer that would be gold, as I read somewhere that the manufacture is not inflating the price it is the retailer. But I guess this would only last till it was abused like always and the rest of us suffer. I am in a unfortunate position as I would mine to get a new card but I live in Australia and the price of power would only let me make like maybe $5 a month.

Oh, you're an Aussie.  I honestly don't know if they sell directly to you guys :( They restock every Wednesday, good luck.
