Much like MSI and their Lightning edition, EVGA also is at work behind the scenes on the Kingpin version of the RTX 2080 Ti. The manufacturer released a first teaser.... EVGA releases teaser RTX 2080 Ti Kingpin
#sarcasm on @Undying & @bjtag: 'Kingpin': 1 grand + 'RTX': 0.5-1 grand + 'Titan': 1.5-2 grand = 3-4 grand? But don't worry! in future prices will rise... @airbud7: Try to sell one of your kidneys for a good price, so that you can always enjoy the early-adopter-bugs for the next few years Unless you live in Germany - here the state pays for your dialysis - here you can sell both! xD Cause kidneys are not importand but E-peen edition(s) are!! #sarcasm off (scnr)
Yay, another model that will never reach the hands of most consumers. They should focus on delivering the models they already "released" first. Not an EVGA 2080 Ti card in sight here yet, and apparently not expected the next 2-3 months either judging by what little information has been available.
Am I the only person that finds the accelerated release schedule of the 2000 series a bit odd? Like they are just throwing things out as fast as possible before AMD and NV GPU's hit the market on 7nm. As in, the xx80Ti doesn't usually release at launch. It did this time. The EVGA FTW3 and Kingpin usually release a good while after release, but the FTW3 was nearly for sale at launch and then this announcement. I'm definitely keeping my 1080Ti until both companies have faster offerings to drive 4K.
Stores in my area (GTA in Ontario, Canada) are flush with 20xx cards... So the issue you're dealing with isn't everywhere...
