t was actually my previous recommended beginner build (2x 1080 ti and 1070 mini) however prices everywhere are jacked and a super compact $2000 rig (assuming you got decent deals on parts) turned into a $3000 rig in todays market . . lol

I guess it is harder to find a 1080ti priced well for ROI than it is to find 1050's with the same criteria. It would just kill me to settle for lesser cards when I know a little bit of diligence would get me stronger cards that ROI quicker for the same overall price.

Do you prefer any particular type of risers yourself and would you recommend them? Like 6-pin PCI-E, Molex, 103C, 006C, etc... I'd like to build a rig with 1080 Tis Smiley

I don't think 1080TIs need risers, never heard of anyone having a sufficient need for these with their 1080ti rig. Some people just put them in there as a precaution or out of habit.
