I just built my first system 2 months ago around the EVGA GTX 980 Ti Classified. It's a great GPU and have no regrets. I'm just curious how does it stand compared to the new Nvidia GTX 1080 coming out? What are some numbers on each so I can make a comparative bar graph? Oh, and here's how my "Skylake Evolv ITX Classified turned out! The case badges I turned into magnets instead of permanent stickers.

the new 1080 is around 15 to 30% faster than a overclocked 908ti in most cases .
if you have extra cash go ahead ..
or wait and see for something like a 1080ti hehe

Very nice, especially for a first build. Congratulations.
There are benchmarks on every major site. Just google it. Or check the 1XXX forums. I will personally wait for the Ti GPU to release to decide if I will upgrade this round.
What use is knowledge if there is no understanding?~Stobaeus

Thank you. The 980 Ti Classified is one the the higher aftermarket overclocked ones besides the Kingpin in this class. I'll have to extrapolate a fair comparison to the 1080. Yeah I'm curious to see the EVGA 980 Ti 1080 variant and specs when they do one and decide if I even would want to trade up yet. I love my Classified though. Great performance and temp control.

No proof of this at the moment, i have watched reviews of the GTX 1080 vs. GTX 980 Ti, both reference cards no Overclock on either one the most fps was like 30fps in doom.....open gl game. and on dx11 and 12 games it was 5 to 15fps if that on 1080p. We will just have to wait till after release to see it any of the statements are true because the GTX1080 is not 2x or 3x better then a GTX980ti so far. I only say this because i have a GTX980ti Classified @Core clock 1501mhz Mem Clock 4100mhz and would like to see some results too and at 1440p. im still looking to get a 2nd 980ti classy with what i'v seen.

My Classified is awesome though I might sell it or use it for step-up.  I still qualify for the step-up program, but never used it before. Maybe it's a better deal, than selling it at a loss?

That's excellent card.
Injoy in that card until GP100 show up.
That card deserve one nice EKWB waterblock and gaming in silence.

Easily the best comparison between the 980 Ti and 1080 as it includes overclocked results. Once OC'd the 980 Ti actually closes the gap to the 1080 in some cases. It is closer to 20% vs 30%.
I would wait for the 1080 Ti... Classified of course.

Don't want to upgrade for a while yet. My 23" display is 1080p anyway. I can play Doom (2016) for example full out graphics settings like cutting through butter. Maybe in a few years when I feel like it's holding me back. The 980 Ti Classified is still a great card to have, even now!

+1 on the New Rig!  +1 But Please add your Fire Strike and 3DMark 11 Scores on your Page I would hold off until the GTX 1080Ti comes out. Scores over on 3DMarks show the GTX 980Ti are still higher than the GTX 1080.

I'll have to download and try those benchmark utilities sometime. I had used other programs while overclocking my 6700K CPU to something stable at a lower vcore that I can live with. I do not intend on overclocking my 980 Ti Classified, for now. My Trident Z memory is just XMP profiled up to its rated 3200 MHz speed.

Personal preference cavnaugh, and EVGA bucks is not a necessity, it's a luxury/privilege. If you really want to get technical on the whole EVGA bucks system, you have to have a certain amount of +1's in order to qualify. (Notice how I wrote "qualify".)

Even if I posted those benchmarks Mod Rigs wants, I don't think I'd ever get enough +1's or even win $1,000 if I did. There are way more popular builds with uber liquid tubing, multi-GPU, etc., for my ITX air cooled rig to compete with in a contest no matter how nice it may look. Since finishing my first custom build in mid-March 2016, so far I only have 7 'up-arrow' likes on PCPartPicker which surprised me after thinking I'd get way more like other similar systems there. But that's just for online bragging rights I suppose. My system does exactly what I built it to do and I'm happy with it. That's what really matters.

Not True, read the Rules. You only need the Text Photos and Benchmark scores. You can even give yourself a +1. The number of +1 is not what wins here.

I haven't given a damn about benchmark scores since the mad onion days in 2001. Waste of time, I'm too busy playing games to be in a epeen bragging contest which means squat when it's all said and done. And yes, that means I don't care about the evga giveaway

Mine is 3 months old so doesn't qualify for the step-up but that's okay. I'm very happy with it and like the CLASSIFIED stenciling showing through the window.
These Phanteks case are great, I like because they show PSU power and model. IT World need more small cases, similar size as this for mATX boards. With Mini ITX you are limited little, but on mATX you can use everything as on big boards and up to two graphic cards. Why you don't care for EVGA 1K Award, you can buy better hardware. Is it possible winner buy EVGA TITAN GP102 for that award? That would be best investment. Or GTX1070 SLI, Almost GTX1080 SLI. I feel they work great in SLI. There are a lot of negative comments about gaming in multi SLI and I think NVIDIA decide to do something about that and because of that Pascal will support Max two cards and they will optimize driver better to card work alone or in SLI.

Phanteks has the original Evolv which is a mATX aluminum case. I was originally going to build in that using the ASUS Maximus VIII Gene motherboard. But that case costs twice as much as what I got the ITX version for and went with the ASUS Z170i Pro Gaming with my EVGA GTX 980 Ti Classified to keep things abound the $2,000 mark, plus I don't 'need' 2 GPU cards. I don't know. Maybe I'll do the 2 benchmarks they use here when there is a cooler day. My ambient room temperatures are always in the upper 70's F or higher in the Summer time. Not sure if that would affect the tests. I don't have central A/C, just a dining room windows A/C unit (where the purple curtains are in the photo background above) and my PC is in the living room. I only used Cinebench and RealBench stress tests during early Spring while optimizing my UEFI manual CPU overclock settings performance. I tried the EVGA OC Scanner X for GPU tests hoping to get a baseline result but didn't understand how to properly use it. I have no intention of overclocking the GPU since it's already heavily factory overclocked compared to stock 980 Ti's if you think about it.

Okay guys, I ran the 3DMark 11 and Fire Strike tests. I posted the results. For the tests I ran the free test programs with default options. I also disabled UEFI adaptive VCore voltage and enabled Performance power options to keep my i7-6700K CPU overclock locked at 4.5 GHz at 1.28V: System Owner: snmavronis 3DMark Fire Strike: 12,545 3DMark 11: 13,473 My Mod Rigs page - http://www.modsrigs.com/detail.aspx?BuildID=35547 [EDIT] Someone in a PC group on Facebook said I have a low Fire Strike score. My ambient living room room temperature was 75.8F during the tests this morning if that's a factor, and that's with a dining room window A/C unit on set to 70F.

Can you post the web link for the firestrike and 3dmark 11 scores? Nevermind, the Modrigs has the links. http://www.3dmark.com/compare/fs/8766431/fs/8688933# Comparing your rig to mine, it looks like there is something holding back your GPU. I say that because two tests top out at 60FPS, or very close to it. Do you have VSYNC forced on in the Nvidia control panel? Or do you have Target Framerate enabled in EVGA's PrecisionX? Or do you have a Gsync Monitor with the Gsync enabled in Nvidia's control panel? Edit: Your 3dmark 11 score screams out that you have a FPS cap set at 60 (be is Vsync, Gsync, or a FPS limit) - http://www.3dmark.com/3dm11/11320305 All you need to do is find out where that is set, disable it, and test again.
