I'm pretty jel; I kinda want a 3080, but I'm fine slumming it with my 2080ti for now. I actually kinda feel bad for the people that sold off their 2080ti for cheap thinking they'd get a 3080 at launch.

Agreed. I'd be happy with a 2080 Ti. I was rocking a build from 2013 with a 1070 as only upgrade between now and then. I love flight simulator and that was the catalyst to upgrade. Would have been happy with 2080 Super or Ti but when 3080 better for less money makes no sense to go with those cards.

Headphones are Audioquest Nighthawk and the Dan Clark Aeon Flow Open X. Speakers are Focal Chorus 605. Amp is a Peachtree Audio Decco 2, which somehow, that FiiO M11 to the left of it sounds better......blows my mind.

PC/audio station:


Too many headphones now hang on the side so no point in having a side window anymore. Nearby is a flat screen 4K TV and I use the TEAC amp to run a pair of Q100 KEF speakers on either side. The TV is connected by HDMI to one of the nVidia ports so it can be used as an extra monitor. I recently acquired the Sendy Audio Aiva's and enjoying them on the RME ADI-2 DAC.

Setup build notes: X99 platform and DIY mini-ITX NAS Build

After seeing all the beautiful setups here it inspired me to clean up my mess of a desk (see original post above) to something more organized. Moved the PC to the floor to make room for the KEF speakers. I got a little "creative" and retained my old Soundblaster SBx in the PC to run the front L/R speaker line-out to a TEAC amp to power the speakers. I removed the Logitech PC surround speakers except for the subwoofer and center channel so it can round out a 3.1 arrangement with the KEFs.
