Hi evryone ! 🙂
Once again, sorry for my bad english.
I just remembered. I forgot to share somes pics of my ROG build here.
About the Matrix. After overcklock, my card run at 2055 - 2130MHz depending the game @ maximum 69°C on my Evolv X whith a custom fan curve. I'm juste a little bit desaponted about the coil whine on my sample.

Amazing! Still awaiting my shipping confirmation from my pre order. Are you going to post come results, like clock speed you seeing and thermals?

I have done some testing, I am pretty underwhelmed to be honest... I wonder what ASUS meant when they stated the Matrix were the top5% of strix...
I'll get back later on that, forgive me but i barely did any testing stock since some issue distracted me.
All the tests were run on my 7980XE at 5GHz and 3.3GHz mesh with the dimms clocked at 3800MHz CL14
The only test I ran stock was firestrike, I know the CPU is a limiting factor here nontheless the card scored nearly 37K in it's stock configuration with a peak clock at 2010MHz.
To compare my overclocked 2080 Ti Strix peaking at 2115MHz scored 35700.

If you checked that result I am sure you figured out what issue distracted me from doing more stock testing...
Generic VGA... I don't get it. I have reinstalled the drivers, reinstalled 3DMark but to this day my submission are still invalid whereas the 3DMark app does recognize the card.
Oh well lets move to another issue.
For some reason the card first refused to take any power limit or voltage increase...
Reinstalling the drivers did nothing. Reflashing the bios with the same one downloaded from TPU fixed it. Really weird...
When it comes to the VRAM that's as expected from samsung mine seems to scale up to 2090MHz.
However when it comes to clockspeeds I really am not impressed so far please please note that I have very little experience with Turing overclocking.
The card seem to be able to do 2115MHz at 1.068V. but I can't really tell since it clocks down quickly after.
Playing with the voltage / clock curve is necessary here. The thing is that with the AIO the temps take a bit of time to rise so you'll start with a very aggressive overclocking which is going to limit the offset you can apply and once the temps come down you find yourself with a very weak OC thanks to GPU boost.
In superposition 1080p extreme leaving the fans on auto, the card would first run at 2115MHz and finish at a ridiculous 1900MHz due to the temperature moving from 44°C to 68°C (on top of my head)
Running the test again with the fans maxed out the card slowly clocked down to a much more respectable 2040MHz at the end of the test scoring 10200.
Sorry as I don't have win10 installed I didn't do any Time Spy run.
However I did run Firestrike Ultra, Extreme and classic with a peak clock of 2115MHz and the memory at 2085MHz
respectively the Graphics score respectively reached : 9225, 18921 and 39097

So yeah I really feel underwhelmed for now considering some strix do 2190MHz on air according to der8auer and I would think a top5% bin should be able to come a lot closer especially with a higher power limit.
I am currently shunt modding the card, it's going to be fun I hope.

Anyway, the second card ships next week, hopefully it's going to be better.

Your post makes a strong case for the Strix 2080Ti OC edition and leaves me feeling like the Matrix is just a waste of money.
