This review is for the EVGA GeForce RTX 2080 Ti XC GAMING (11G-P4-2382-KR) which I purchased from elsewhere because availability is incredibly limited at the moment (and still is).So, let's get one thing out of the way - the price!!! Nvidia's new Turing RTX 20xx series cards are considerably more expensive than previous generations - to the extent that PC gaming is starting to becoming very expensive and doesn't bode well for the future. Even the mid range cards are much more expensive than the Pascal generation 10xx cards.Part of the justification for the high price is around some of the technology that the RTX cards have, including real-time ray tracing and Deep Learning Super Sampling (DLSS).Now, while it's great that we get new technology in these cards very few games actually support it at the moment (even months after the cards were released). There's also a very significant performance hit for enabling real-time ray tracing which 'may' improve with new drivers but that is largely an unknown at the moment. Another concern is that all major consoles are based on AMD chips and these don't support either of these technologies so there's less incentive for games developers to implement Nvidia card-specific functionality - but we'll just have to see how that pans out.I've upgraded from a MSI Seahawk GTX 1080 EK X, which is a card with an EKWB water block for a custom water cooling loop. To be fair, it has been a brilliant card but I always felt like I should have bought the 1080 Ti version. One thing that concerned me about the MSI card was the warranty because there's lots of mixed views about what MSI will honour. Water blocks need to be maintained and it needs taking apart to do this properly. MSI have warranty void stickers on screws and the water block which you have to break to take it apart. Apparently this doesn't void the warranty but you never really know until you need to send the card back.I decided to go back to EVGA card this time round. I have several of their other products and prior to the MSI 1080 I had an EVGA 980 Ti. EVGA have the best warranty and support of any OEM I've used before. You are also allowed to remove the heat-sink and fan to put your own water block on and they will honour the warranty providing you send the card back with the original heat-sink and fan put back on (and it hasn't been physically damaged). I have put a water block on this 2080 Ti (one of the scariest moments of my life!) so this piece of mind is a definite plus for me. Also, when registering the card on EVGA's site you can pay about 47 euros to extend the 3 year warranty to 10 years. Seemed like a no-brainer to me with a card costing well over £1000!Like all OEMs there's several variants of the 2080 Ti cards from EVGA. I noticed there is a 2080 Ti Black Edition which is the best part of £200 cheaper. I did a little research into what this price difference was for and it's down to the variant of GPU used on the card. The Black Edition has a TU102-300 GPU and most of their other cards have the TU102-300A GPU. The 'A' variant of this GPU is binned so it stands a much better chance of running cooler and being more overclockable than a non 'A' variant. Whether that's worth paying an extra £200 for is personal preference really.The main differences between this XC card and the XC Ultra (11G-P4-2383-KR), other than the slightly higher price, is that the XC Ultra has a slightly higher 15Mhz factory overclock and a bigger air cooling solution which should provide lower running temperatures. The only downside with the XC Ultra is that the card is 2.75x in width and therefore has a triple width rear slot which consumes 3 slots at the rear of your PC! Unfortunately I have other PCI express slots populated in my PC and a triple slot card simply wouldn't fit so I opted for the regular XC card instead. I believe EVGA do have a dual slot width replacement plate for this card (M022-10-000130) but doesn't appear to be available in the UK yet.I've put an EK-Vector RTX 2080 Ti RGB Nickel/Plexi (3831109810477) water block on this card which seems to be performing really well. I'm not too keen on the machined metal finishes in places but the GPU and other other contact parts are flat and polished and seem to make good contact. The RGB lighting on this water block plugs into your motherboard and not the LED header on the graphics card itself.On my custom loop, with no overclocking or any tweaking this card boosts to 1980 MHz and maintains a temperature of about 39 degrees, even after several hours of playing Assassins Creed Odyssey and Shadow of the Tomb Raider, which is great to be fair. The card's rated boost speed is 1635 MHz so just being on water makes a huge difference. Performance-wise it totally kills the 1080 it's replaced - it really is a beast of a card.I tried the EVGA Precision X1 software to automatically scan and overclock the card but the software didn't seem to work properly and clicking the Scan and Test buttons didn't seem to do anything. The software is still in beta so I've uninstalled it for now and gone back to MSI Afterburner which works perfectly. Letting Afterburner scan and overclock on its own yielded a 150 MHz overclock which is pretty impressive, taking my boost clock up to just under 2150 MHz. I was able to manually overclock the card and get a total of 175 MHz which is as high as it can go without becoming unstable. This only incurred a small temperature rise to 43 degrees but the power draw went up significantly, especially with the Power Limit set to 130%. I've set the RAM to +500 MHz and that had no issues - I'd say there's probably more headroom there too. Like Pascal before it, Turing is always restricting its clock speed by power/voltage/temperature limit and you'll hit one of those sooner or later.The 2080 Ti is an absolute monster and will destroy anything you throw at it. If you can afford one then it's a no brainer to me and I highly recommend it.Pros:- Amazing performance out of the box- EVGA has excellent support and service- Optional 10 year warranty on EVGA site for 47 Euros (which stands a good chance of being honoured)- Overclocks well- Impressive performance when water cooled- New technologies such as real-time ray tracing and Deep Learning Super Sampling (DLSS)- Runs pretty much everything in 4K Ultra with room to spare and offers overkill performance for 1440p- Oculus Rift and HTC Vive Pro runs everything liquid smooth with settings cranked right up.- Comes with Battlefield V and Anthem game codes (worth a few quid on their own!)Cons:- Very expensive- New technologies not widely used in games yet- Performance penalty for real-time ray tracing- EVGA Precision X1 software is in Beta and a bit buggy

Having had a bad experience with an Aorus 2080 to waterforce I went back to EVGA who have not disappointed in the past.Now we all know Turing dies are well overpriced but if we want to play everything at min 60 fps in 4K we have to cough up the money.This EVGA card has a bios with 130% PowerPoint which for us overclockers is great news. I wont bore you with benchmarks but I'm very happy with this card. Also EVGA dont get their knickers in a twist if you remove the cooler so my plans to go full custom loop wont spoil the four warranty.

I have bought this GPU specifically for water colling. This is as close to founders edition I could get as 1500 for founders at the time of purchase wasn't worth it. I have used it almost a year mainly 4k gaming, so gpu is at 99% load during gaming session. Haven't had any issues. Was easy to dismantle and put water block. Running stock water cooled at 99% load gaming, tems sit 45-50° depending on room temperature.

At first I thought the 2080ti series was all hype, upon installing you need to install it via hdmi not display port. (the driver does not work straight away) after installing the driver display port works fine. Abit different from previous graphic cards I have owned. It runs most games at 4k at 60fps and above.

I’m a newbie with these kinds of things but I love that I’m able play whatever the hell I want on my pc and it looks amazing, zero lag everything max quality while doing all the other random stuff I have running on my pc. No problems so far so .. I love it

Great 2080 Ti, won't reach amazing clock speeds but if you want a 2080 Ti at a lower price which will cut through games with the same power give it a buy,If you want to overclock your card, your better going with a higher model with a bigger heatsink
