    Question Will there be 2080 TI SUPER?

    I have an Asus ROG STRIX 2080 ti on order right now. As of mid June, there was speculation of a 2080 ti super, but since then, there's been nothing about it, so I had assumed 2080 ti wouldn't be getting a super. Do you guys know if there will be one? Should I cancel/return my order on the 2080 ti?
