Question 1

Does this GPU come with a Displayport?

Accepted Answer

It comes with Display Port to DVI Adapter.

Question 2

Is this compatible with the  Rog Maximus IX Formula? I'm extremely new at pc building and I don't want to mess this up.

Accepted Answer

It should be. I've never seen GPU incompatibility unless a motherboard is like 4 generations behind. Pro tip: get a 1080 TI with a better cooling system (the one with several big fans, not with one blower). This one ("founders edition") gets very hot, and the blower can be a little loud. I've had a machine with 4 of them just shut down from overheating when it was 80F in the room. (our lab uses them for computations, so I have 7 machines with 4 of them each, and I regret not getting a better cooling system).

Question 3

Has anyone received their card (or confirmation of shipment) when purchasing while "back-ordered"? Ordered mine on 11th. Can I reasonably expect it to ship within 3 to 5 days?

Accepted Answer

I haven't yet and I ordered on the 10th. I've reached out to newegg regarding the same and will post what I find when they get back to me.

Question 4

Is there a way to contact the seller here to find out when they expect to ship their stock?  Is this Asus' version or Asus vendor reselling Nvidia's?  I had to go with preorder here because Nvidia website sold out in less than 1 minute.  Very frustrating.

Ultimately, when shall i expect this card to come in?

Accepted Answer

Sold by Newegg, is an Asus Founder's Edition card. Best out of all of them in my opinion, so I'm happy. I'll be even happier if it ships within a couple days.

Question 5

The memory speed of this card in the details say "11010Mhz"?! Is the right, or is it a misprint?

Accepted Answer

This item is listed by one of Newegg's Marketplace sellers. I would recommend reaching out to MITXPC through their seller profile for additional information. You may see their contact info by clicking on their name above the add to cart button.

Question 6

Are board partners making there cards too with the 1080TI? or is this only available in the nvidia blower design and PCB layout?

Accepted Answer

yes custom cards will be out soon but no ETA yet

Question 7

Is this card powerful enough to make Anime real?

Accepted Answer

Yes, but only the dudes and tentacle beasts.

Question 8

Does anyone know when the back ordered units will ship out?

Accepted Answer

Placed backorder on 3/11. Got this in an email on 3/15:
We are contacting you today regarding your backorder for the ASUS GeForce GTX 1080 (GTX1080TI-FE) Video Card, item 14-126-185. Unfortunately, we have not yet received sufficient inventory to fulfill your order. However, we expect to receive more inventory within the next 2-3 weeks and will contact you with more information at that time." booo

Question 9

This ASUS states "VR Ready", but other brands do not state "VR Ready". Does this ASUS branded 1080ti have an advantage or all they all the same?

Accepted Answer

Just different description. All 1080ti Founder Editions are basically the same (different custom service) Also, all 1080ti (no matter AIC version or FE version) are VR Ready.

Question 10

The pictures for this product clearly show 3 DisplayPort ports with an HDMI port. However the specs says only 1 DisplayPort port. Can anyone verify if the product has 3 DisplayPort ports rather than the 1 listed in the specs?

Accepted Answer

It has three DisplayPort v1.4 and one HDMI v2.0b ports, and includes a dongle to adapt one DisplayPort to a Dual-Link DVI-D connector.
