Anyone using this combo? Thinking about upgrade my GTX1080 for ultrawide gaming (3440x1440). My cpu is often 100% in BF:V though, so not sure if a new GPU is the best way to go.

Be sure to check this before buying a 2080.

They say they've worked things out but confirm before buying - It's your $$ and these cards are too expensive to take a chance on, plus note the packaging difference bewteen the ones thats bad and of the ones thats supposedly revamped to fix these issues.

I say this because just yesterday, someone elsewhere had a 2080 start blackscreening on them and I don't know whether it's one of the older versions or not, they didn't say whether it was or not.
