Witch RTX 2080 To Buy ?

Solution
I am in the same boat. I want to buy a GTX 2080, most likley from MSI. PLEASE STOP TELLING ME TO GET THE GTX 1080TI....I KNOW...IT'S THE GREATEST CARD EVER. But I still will go for the RTX 2080 because I want the DLAA feature in the future. and I don't buy old generation tech. Anyway....I am really undecided between the MSI RTX 2080 Gaming X Trio and the MSI RTX 2080 DUKE. I can't find a test from the same source of both. But techpowerup has reviewed both versions of the 2080Ti. It seems like the Duke runs more slient and uses less power, but the Gaming X Trio overclocks better. I want my cards silent. I like both MSI's for the fact that the fans stop in low load and idle (under 60C temps). I don't want to hear the card when I don't...

There are reviews out for the founders edition and for some of the custom board partners. They won't ship for a few more days though.

Initially I think the 2080Ti (only? Or 2080 and 2080Ti) preorders were supposed to be shipped on the 20th, but even that got pushed to the 27th.

As for cards from board partners, I haven't come across any solid info. Though I imagine the dates are similar.
