I have over 40 days for my step up. I own a 1080ftw. I would like to go to a 1080ti. Only problem is when I go to the drop down it only offers me one choice of a Ti. Every other choice is a lesser card that I now own, which to me makes no sense since it's a "step up" program. It offers me the black SC.
Which is a great choice but I would like to have the thermal sensors. Is there a way I can get the one I want through this program? Money is not the issue. The choices are just not making sense.
Thanks
Don

    Is this card , the 1080ti worth the step up? If this is the only option.
    Also. I believe my extended warranty (5 yrs) will transfer to this step up. Correct?

    Yes, the extended warranty does transfer with a Step Up. 
     
    As to if the card is worth it to you, I suggest looking at the performance of that card vs the card you have for the programs you use and see if you get a performance increase that is worth the Step Up price you'll need to pay. 

    Everything is security.

    If I was thinking of a step up to a 1080ti from a 1080 I would really consider the 2080 personally. The 1080 is a great card and the 1080ti will give you a bit more performance but it doesn't support ray tracing like the 2080 does.

    Use an Associates Code & SAVE 5% - 10% on your purchase. Just click on the associates banner to save, or enter the associates code at checkout on your next purchase. If you choose to use my code I want to personally say "Thank You" for using it.

    Guys if you look below you will see all the cards that are in the set up program so why not have a 1080Ti which is a much faster card ? Could be that the 1080Ti is  better than the RTX2080

    I Don't think the 1080TI is really that much better than the 2080, people with a 1080ti just want to say that, where a lot of benchmarks including linustech found higher FPS in 4k from the 2080, only a couple of fps more, but still more.

    The concern I would have with the 2080 over the 1080 Ti is the decrease in memory from 11GB to 8GB.
