Hello. So i was wondering now that the GTX 1080 has been announced if there will be an option available to run the GTX 1080 in SLI instead of the Titan X in SLI option that has been announced before in the GT51CA?
Since the GT51CA is not yet released i was hoping they will include this option before it's released. I'm looking into buying this PC But i really hope they will include this option.

my guess is that the new gtx 1080 is coming out next month June/July 2016 and chances is that their have missed that system. maybe their might add it to the specs on the site or maybe just bring out a totally new system. only time will tell and good the gtx 1080 will be against gtx 980ti in sli

I hope they do add it to the system's specs. It'd be great. Thanks for the information 🙂

I think that definitely will integrate into the new system, if it were not so would start at a disadvantage, the people buying these types of desktop already assembled before comparli look good specifications and especially the news, I personally would not buy a gt51 with nvidia in titan sli but with new graphics cards nvidia gt1080! I think that there will be gt51 models with gt1080 nvidia graphics cards otherwise would not make sense!

I hope they reveal an updated GT51CA during Computex.

Wouldn't an "update" indicate that they've already sold something? I can't believe they have a populated link with updates/drivers/information yet they haven't sold a single unit yet???

" I'm going to take a good guess that the GT51 will likely come with GTX 1080 options later in the future. Since the GT51 project was started a bit earlier before the GTX 1080 was available so when they came up with the specs they just used the Titan X as that was the best card at that time."

Guys good news!!

ROG GT51 is an award-winning gaming desktop not only looks out of this world, you'll get extreme performance from the liquid-cooled Intel Core i7-6700K processor with Turbo Gear for one-click full-core CPU overclocking to 4.6GHz without rebooting and up to NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 graphics in 2-way SLI. The ROG Band lets you access Shadow Drive — your own hidden hard drive space that lets you manage personal confidential data safely — or activate overclocking.
