Leadtek 1080ti: How bad could it be?

The company I work in needs some decent PCs for ad hoc experimentation, data extraction etc.

The Leadtek 1080ti for 65/67k seems like a good option considering how others are selling a 1080 for 70k (ridiculous!)

I want to know why there is so much stigma behind Leadtek and is it enough to mandate buying a lower tier GPU for 3/5k more (again, ridiculous!)

[sensei]

I dont think leadtek is a bad choice it's just people tend to buy a better gpu with better cooling and faster clock speed than the reference one and if you are buying the gpu for office purposes then leadtek should be fine

[Fox Mulder]

The reference cards aren't manufactured by LeadTek but nvidia themselves. Therefore, if you pick a reference cooling, you'll get the exact same performance that you would from a Founder's Edition card.

There are two reference designs, one being a slightly inferior to the regular one.

So I am better off buying their reference model. They have a "Hurricane" version for 67k with three fans. I should avoid that?

wtf!! Yeah talked to startech getting the CPU,proc, mobo etc from them and a 1080ti from Binary Logic.

1312 USD? Whats the point of buying it if it cost almost 2x the original price?

[Ahnaf_i7X]

As long as its covered by warranty its gonna be fine. So get the 1080Ti ASAP as others have mentioned

[Sami 1999]

please don't buy.

I will buy 4 of them

[VANGUARD]

Please buy from others, not UCC.

Why does it matter?

Is it even worth importing to sell at such insane prices? Are you allowed to disclose how many people actually buy a non professional GPU for 1lac+? Just curious :3

We just can't even supply bro. We can't even fulfill the demand. From next shipment, i will try to increase it to 1 lac 20k. Hope that will help us a bit to get rid of the demand. Made a mistake this time.

Holy! Are these mostly corporate clients? Just a yes or no would suffice.

Datacenter usage of Geforce cards is getting restricted though :/

Let me know if you seriously want one. I can get you one for 85K including shipping, tax and Customs Duty. no hanky panky.
Quoted Price is for AORUS GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Gaming OC but you can choose whatever you heart desire.
You will get your item in less than 20 days.

If there is enough demand i can flood the whole damn market with 1080ti .

I appreciate the offer!

But our company has some sort of partnership with Startech. The 1080ti is being bought from Binary Logic as there are none in stock at Startech. (kind of lucky xD)

Doubt the administration would spend so much money on hardware with no local warranty support.

Understandable. But even with the local warranty I highly doubt any local retailer will replace a high end faulty card within short period of time.
99% of the time reference design cards or well built after market models usually lasts way past their useful usage period.
With that being said, I can provide full manufacturer warranty under your name provided you are willing to pay both way shipping.

All the importers, manufacturers including the ones in BD estimate a fixed overhead for warranty for each unit they sell. So, if you don't claim warranty that overhead becomes additional profit eventually. This is applicable to any item not just computer hw. In case of imports it's an option that you can exercise if you ever need it.

I request each and everyone to buy from Minitt. That will be really really a great relief for us. If what he says is true, even distributors are willing to buy from him.

I don't have the authority to make financial decisions unfortunately. Plus the LeadTek model is quite cheap. I might contact you in the future for personal purchases.

*sigh* it is always the miners. It should take them ages to break even though.. Ahh well
