I like my ZOTAC RTX 2070 oc. It serves me well in my computer homestation and will add another year or so to this setup. ;-)
Because some just want to watch the world burn by sowing chaos and confusion amongst the masses with all these different names and types: Game Ready, Creator Ready, Studio, Standard, DCH, GTX, RTX, GT, MX, Ti, Super, ODE, QNF, and so on.
Because they couldn't call it 2080 Ti since that already exists, so rather make a new unified lineup with all cards being called "Super", instead of some being Ti and some "Super" or something else entirely.
I got my evga ultra rtx 2070 for $479 at best buy last week on sale. every other place was selling the same model for $600.. finally put my gtx 1070 to sleep.. why is the rtx 2080 ti over $1200? i mean it cant be 3 times better then my new Rtx 2070 at nearly 3 times the price.
I think it's where you look as they do have 2080 Ti's for less. Evga RTX 2080 Ti's for $999 and you get 3 promo games.

I would pay whatever it took to avoid using a blower cooler. Like, if I ask myself to make this choice "2080 Ti but you HAVE to use a loud hot blower style cooler OR a 2080 Super but you get a nice big heatsink with a couple fans" I would probably get the 2080 Super. Call me crazy, but I've saved money before when I got the MSI GTX 1080 Aero and I hated myself for doing it.
Due to severe driver issues with the 5700 series I really wish I spent the extra and grabbed a 2070 Super. How hindsight works eh?
for 1440p 144hrz, go for AOC Agon , i think the best price/quality monitor money can buy at the moment
