On a Friday afternoon when its hot as fuck? Probably take a bit more than $20...I wonder if you went there and handed some dude a $20 if he'd crawl in there for you
I went with the ACX3.0 SC model - why the FE over that?Going to use EVGA's step up program to get a 1070 Founders, unless they put a better version up in the next 17 days. The Founders edition is backordered though, so it'll be awhile before I can go through with the upgrade.
It offers 2 of the 1070's, the Founders and the ACX3.0. Only difference between the two is the cooling, and price (acx is $30 cheaper). I ordered the Founders simply because Great > Good. =)Step up program is Founders Edition only IIRC.
Wow, nice. You went with the Asus or Acer monitor?My EVGA 1080 SC got here today, paired with a new 1440p 144hz gsync ips monitor is such a massive upgrade from my r9 380 1080p 60hz setup before. Loving this!
The founder is a scam by nvidia with a shitty cooler costing 100$ more for absolutely no reason except that it was released first.It offers 2 of the 1070's, the Founders and the ACX3.0.

When the F is the regular version coming out? I see the FE already sold out, fine I was waiting for the regular anyway.The founder is a scam by nvidia with a shitty cooler costing 100$ more for absolutely no reason except that it was released first.
Custom coolers are better 95% of the time. Sad to see people falling for Nvidia shit.
AFAIK, there seems to be no "regular version". FE is the reference design, with an added 100$ on top.When the F is the regular version coming out? I see the FE already sold out, fine I was waiting for the regular anyway.
Standard pricing is $50 per utterance of the word "Xtreme", so according to that page it's $1100Have to say the Gigabyte GTX 1080 Xtreme Gaming Premium Pack is sounding pretty pimp. No price released or anything yet but I am assuming I want won't to spend that much.

Nvidia is only going to be selling the FE versions themselves, but the other manufacturers will be putting out basic 1080/1070s of their own.AFAIK, there seems to be no "regular version". FE is the reference design, with an added 100$ on top.
Why anyone would want to buy a shitty blower type card except for SLI in a badly ventilated case is beyond me though.Nvidia is only going to be selling the FE versions themselves, but the other manufacturers will be putting out basic 1080/1070s of their own.

They just don't look as spiffy, and will be delayed so they can offload their FE cards first.
Just put in my Step Up for 1070. A little peeved it's 419 instead of 379 though. It's going to cost 170 for my step up.Ordered a 1070. Lets see how long it takes =/ Then to play the "rotate video cards through my kids machines" game begins!
