Should I bite the bullet and buy a 1080 or wait
It's computer hardware. Something better will always be around the corner. Do or do not, your wallet holds the answer you seek.

1080ti because apparently the difference is real. I would wait a bit the 1080 should come down in price soon.
I'm going to need to have my credit card in my hand THE MOMENT this goes on sale. It's going to sell out in ten minutes I bet.

That may be true. But I would wait until one of the approved manufactures releases it. They tend to have a better cooling design.

You'll also want to pick up a reinforcement bracket I think they are like 10 bucks? The 1080 and Titan were both stupid heavy and were peeling peoples PCI-E ports off the main board.

Yes that looks right. Depending on your case you may also want to pick up one of the power re-routing things that came out with the 1080.

I'm putting in a Cosmos 2 (https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811119252) which is incredibly huge and heavy. I was going to use this case for my server but ended up buying an xbyte server which is why I have it

I'm actually going to need help moving this. Imagine if I had all of the hard drive bays filled. It would be insane.

I have the Lian Li pcA75B with Window. Huge case but very light, worth every penny(cost more than most people spend on their cpu).
-
@momurda Yeah LianLi is expensive but very high quality

I like the LianLi cases I've used in the past but hard to justify the price.
I'm using a Bitfenix Defender right now. Super small case that can fit a full size GPU. Working really well so far.
