I type really fast, and everything is auto corrected. Thanks for fixing the typo. Just don't do it again.. And yes its totally annoying.. and off topic.. you should have quit while you where ahead because people like you make these boards unbearable.
Got a tip for us?

........Sorry. That's the last correction I'll make. I promise.
But I'll also argue that horrible spelling is more unbearable than an annoying grammar Nazi... Just sayin'.

WOW!!!!!! There's so much bastardized english used on this and other forums, I'm surprised you're (picked the correct one, not your) picking on this guy

Yes, just like emojis and texting shorthand have shown, the English language is dead.^^^^WOW!!!!!! There's so much bastardized english used on this and other forums, I'm surprised you're (picked the correct one, not your) picking on this guy

I am actually using it in the context of "its" being the plural form of "it", "it" as a noun.

Uh, that's not how it works.
The English language.
Which form of English? Their are about 100 dialects of English. Where are you from that your dialect is superior or better or more proper than mine?
All of the ones where "I am actually using it in the context of "its" being the plural form of "it", "it" as a noun" isn't a valid explanation, which I'm pretty sure is all of them.
Ugh, this thread is getting derailed.

Lol. Yeah let's get back to talking about the 1080. Sorry, my bad.
Anyway, I just got the EVGA superclocked 1080 to use in Windows 10. I really wish it supported macOS...

Do you think each new amazing iteration of video cards that come out just kind of punch nMP owners right in the kidneys?
This is going to have 50% higher clock than the titan X? how many multiples of the dual D700 in TFLOPS is that now?
edit: 10 tflops. meh, non - TI 1080 is 9tflops. maybe the VRAM will be more? (D700 is only 3tflop x 2)

I imagine it does, but it also punches ME in the kidneys since without OS X drivers I can't really consider one either.
The day is coming when I switch to a Windows PC. Don't know when, but its coming.
The only possible thing that could keep me going on a Mac Pro without PCIe is reliable, speedy, and affordable eGPU compatible with both OS X and Windows, but that's practically a moon shot.
I am still extremely curious about who are the "big guys in the industry" who stopped TheWolfe eGPU Kickstarter, after the Kickstarter itself received huge popularity and people backed the s**t out of it.
Also, think of it this way for future products:
*speculation starts*
Only Intel integrated GPUS + "mac edition" eGPUs if you want the grunt. No more dedicated graphics which take up space, and get outdated real quick. Just think about what Apple could squeeze out of these eGPUs, if they provide a support similar to something like the GTX680 mac edition, which run SO well on MacOS.
Makes total sense for Apple as a professional product, technology wise and marketing wise.
*speculation ends*
I think it's much simpler than that -- ThunderBolt licensing fees. You probably can't sell a ThunderBolt product without passing some kind of certification and paying the licensing fees, which were probably a lot more than they had anticipated. That'd be my guess, anyway.
A few years ago that was definitely the case. I bet you're right it's still true.Intel, right?

I have to quote myself from few pages ago:
One of the rumors: GTX 2060 and 2060 Ti will be based on GP 104 chips. For one reason: GDDR5X memory controller.
GP106 reused as a replacement for GTX 1050 Ti, WITHOUT 6 pin connector. Specs? 1280 CUDA Cores, 1506 MHz Turbo boost, 6 GB of RAM(192 GB/s), 150-160 USD price, under 75W TDP.
That kinda shows how much better is TSMC process, than GloFo/Samsung.

It depends on who you talk to. But yeah, text messaging has been a detriment to the English language.

Good news about the updates, looks like they're planning on keeping their hegemony with Vega, 15% speedbump over the 1080. Not quite a generational shift but if you're waiting for a better deal this is yuge.
The only way Nvidia can compete with Vega is by using GP100 chip and reusing the architecture in the mainstream offerings. But that appears to be the case for Volta GPUs.
Pascal refresh will be interesting. I genuinely hope for using full GP106 chip, but without 6 pin connector as a GTX 1050 Ti replacement. Rough calculations suggest that that chip could be around current RX 470 performance. That would make making powerful, but power efficient computers extremely easy.
