I'll have my 3x1080ti order shipped by monday, by far i think they are the best cards for mining. Got 2x MSI Gaming X on board, ordered another one, one Zotac Amp Extreme core & one Asus ROG Strix. Choosed different ones because of sale and stupid 1GPU/Customer restrictions.
Leass, have you tested (very likely though) all these cards side-by-side with default settings? I've been wondering how big of a difference there is between them. Would anyone spend that extra money if the cards actually hash at the same rate with stock factory settings.
One of the reasonings for spending extra is relying on the resale price in the future. For example, buying second hand Galax/KFA2 or Gigabyte Aorus 18 months later? It's like, Galax who, but costs less for sure and could earn you the same money while crunching bits.
