We already have two reviews available for you to take a look at, one covering the RTX 2080 Founder's Edition and another covering the MSI RTX 2080 SUPER Gaming Trio with a custom cooler.
The RTX 2080 Super will be available directly from Nvidia in Founder's Edition form but there are plenty of custom versions hitting the UK market. At Overclockers UK, there is a selection of them already available, with the KFA2 RTX 2080 Super EX 1Click-OC starting at £668.99. The ASUS RTX 2080 SUPER EVO OC also comes with a dual-fan cooler at the £668.99 mark.
From there, pricing starts to get a bit more expensive. The Palit RTX 2080 SUPER GameRock and Gigabyte RTX 2080 SUPER Gaming OC both sit at £698.99. The Zotac RTX 2080 SUPER Twin is £719.99, the Gigabyte Aorus RTX 2080 SUPER is £749.99 and finally, the ASUS ROG Strix model sits at the top of the pile, priced at £799.99.
