I will be waiting for Custom 1070s mainly the EVGA (FTW) or Gigabyte (G1 or Xtreme). The custom a bit cheaper compared to Founder Ed. , cooled better and Oc'd out of the box.


There is also a fan issue associated with the Founder Edition

http://wccftech.com/nvidia-geforce-gtx-1080-fan-issues-fix/

Knowing that:

MSI and Asus accused of sending reviewers overpowered graphics cards

http://www.theverge.com/circuitbreaker/2016/6/21/11986836/msi-asus-overclocked-graphics-cards-review

448 (for the Founder Ed. at PC&Parts)*1.1(VAT) + 5(Shipment) = 542 USD for the GTX 1070 delivered to you door step in Lebanon , is a good price , and I guess by this price the 980Ti frankly is RIP for present of future investments.

Apparently prices need some time to settle, currently almost all custom 1070s and 1080s are sold with same price or more than the Founder Edition, we will see what will happen to the prices after a month.

I read the theverge article, I can't see anything wrong with what MSI did, they've set the OC mode of their gaming app by default for review samples, their gaming app is labeled on the box, any user could see it and know about it.

Update: I just saw it, Macrotronics has listed the MSI GTX 1080 Gaming X for 950$

That is Very Expensive indeed , and I do not know how this time PC&Parts did not put their hand on any custom one. By the pay Special Order form PC&Parts needs 25 Days to arrive + a 40% down payment. I think a 1070OC is the way I will go.

Well well new update, Massdrop just listed the MSI GTX1070 Gaming X, if it drops to the lowest it will be 430$ + 27$ shipping to Lebanon, around 460$ delivered to your door BUT the estimated ship date is Aug 2, 2016 so it will arrive around the end of August, my guess even at the end of August there will be no Lebanese store with custom GTX1070 at this low price, even if it was sold for 380$ on Amazon it will cost more with taxes + shipping + customs.
I only tested Massdrop with a Mionix mouse where it arrived with no extra cost at all, I only paid the mouse price + massdrop shipping, it was delivered by Libanpost to my door.

this works when the item value isn't considerable, below 200$ i guess... if its above, ud pay VAT and Customs and everything

Any Body Coming or Know Some One Coming from the United States I need a 1080 or a 1070 (not reference or founder edition)
Gigabyte G1 Gaming
Asus Strix
EVGA FTW edition
Zotac AMP! Extreme
or
Last Choice: MSI Gaming
PM to make a deal.
Thank You

can't find any comparisons between founders edition and the aftermarket ones, do you guys know any?

Till Now I have the following Details:

below will be n stock within 3 to 4 days as max

912-V330-001 MSI GEFORECE GTX 1070 GAMING X 8G @ 565$ +vat = 623 USD
912-V801-1295 MSI 8GB G5X GEFORCE GTX 1080 FOUNDERS EDITION 795+vat = 874 USD
1070 founders edition 535+vat = 588 USD

from CGS Computers Pro - Kaslik

eVGA 08G-P4-6180-KR GeForce GTX1080 Founders Edition 8GB GAMING Whisper Silent Cooling Graphics Card : $749.00 + VAT = 824 USD

eVGA 08G-P4-6170-KR GeForce GTX1070 Founders Edition 8GB GAMING Whisper Silent Cooling Graphics Card $488.00 + VAT = 536 USD

From PC& Parts

Finally , Macrotronics has the highest prices:

MSI GeForce GTX1070 GamingX GDDR5 8GB for USD 660 (VAT Included)
MSI GeForce GTX1080 GamingX GDDR5X 8GB Dedicated for USD 950 (VAT Included)


Stocks Are Still Limited , but at least it is a local warranty + less headache in shipment from abroad and RMAs. I suspect priced will drop even when stocks are more available , Pascal lunch prices are higher than Maxwell two years ago. I am leaning toward the SI GeForce GTX1070 GamingX GDDR5 8GB. Your Opinion.



What Do You Think of the MSI GTX 1070 GAMING X 8G it is for USD 624 in or Shall I Go with the MSI GTX 1070 GAMING X 8G For USD 860 In My Country , it will be approximately 35- 40% price difference here. Worth that for the performance increase of the 1070 OC vs 1080 OC.

pcandparts offer is tempting but I prefer not to get an FE card, the gigabyte G1 look amazing though

its better to wait for the aftermarket ones, here are the differences between the 1080 fe version and the aftermarket ones:

http://www.guru3d.com/articles_pages/msi_geforce_gtx_1080_sea_hawk_x_review,13.html

Soon I will be Getting the MSI GTX 1070 GAMING X - the G1 Gaming is Great but Also , comes a hefty price especially in Lebanon. MSI GTX 1070 GAMING X is good around , good cooler , and factory OC.

TORX 2.0 Fan , very efficient and silent
1797 MHz Boost / 1607 MHz Base / 8108 MHz Memory (OC Mode) and more headroom to OC.

I can get the 1080 Oc , I have the money , but is hiccup to pay USD 850 for a card now that will be beaten by mid-rangers in the near future , and I say near future since 2 years elapsed (only one generation between Maxwell and Pascal) and 1070 ~ the Top Dog of Maxwell (Titan X). Vega seems a March 2017 release , and August will witness a 1080Ti (DDR5x most probably) /Titan P release with most probably HBM 2.0 12GB /16GB Stacks , but with a very high price too I suspect ~ 950 - 1000 USD in Lebanon for the 1080Ti. Therefore a 624 USD for a Titan X Performance Card , is fair enough as a new graphic card investment.

dio wroteDeals of the day guys, if you have someone coming in from abroad, this would be a good deal:

But you refused to buy a blower style card before, what happened to high standards! :)

In my humble opinion EVGA seems to have the best gtx 1080 cards. It seems they are capable of oc'ing more than others while remaining
stable not to mention the fiasco where msi and asus where found to be messing with review units. If you guys have someone coming from the states I suggest the evga gtx 1080 FTW edition. Unfortunetly for me, buying from Dubai I only had access to the superclocked edtion, but at 20$ more the FTW edition is the way to go!
