Sorry for you loss, GTX1080Ti FTW3 is great GPU.  Every moment I will join you with some GTX1080Ti as well. Maybe I should punish self with Founders Edition because 85C and fan noise will force me to invest in EKWB Performance KIT P280 and some GPU block.

Grandparents often understand their grandchildren better than many. Sorry for your loss. Great looking rig by the way.
Your rig looks absolutely stunning. The color is awesome.

Really sorry for your loss, I'm sure she'll be remembered by many for her generosity, as I'm sure she was benevolent more often than not.

My condolences. She will live on in the heart of your PC.
I was expecting this to be another complaint about how slow the Kingpin is or something, I was pleasantly surprised.

Sorry for your loss. It's great that she wanted you to use the money for something that you enjoy! I may suggest getting a backplate made for the gpu to commemorate her.
Enjoy the card, EVGA is the best out there.

Damn, get that GPU and NEVER sell it, don't even RMA it for anything. This GPU will be the lasting legacy of your grandma.
All I got from my grandpa before he passed was a pack of cigarettes to remind me to never smoke, (died from lung cancer). I still got that pack. Still, havent smoked.

Sorry for your loss, but a better Day is coming, friend. Keep hope alive. Stylish build as well; a nice reminder of her kindness and love.

As one member stated, expected this to be a complaint thread. Your Grandma was generous it seems. Both good pictures posted. Is that you in the pic, in Grandmas arms? I like your build, very nice colors and cleanly built. Looks great, enjoy your card.
