I'd also put MSI in your shortlist - they make great graphics cards. There's a good comparative chart here:

MSI 1080 Ti Lightning Z seems to be the best - https://www.guru3d.com/articles-pages/msi-geforce-gtx-1080-ti-lightning-z-review,1.html

I just bought a used Asus strix 1080ti for CAD$700. I got all the packaging and the orginal sales receipt from Canada Computer. If it was not for the sales receipt I would have bought an evga because the warranty is attached to the card not the purchaser. The Asus Strix 1080ti is CAD$1950 on newegg.ca CAD$2050 with HST. That in itself is fishy! HST is supposed to be 13%.

I would highly suggest buying a used on. But be careful! I sold my 980ti which I had for 2 years and also bough used for about $500. I got CAD $300 and that card owed me nothing. So as I see the I am $400 into an as new 1080ti with 2 years of warranty. That's less than 1/5th of the price of a new one!

As I said I would strongly suggest shopping around for a used on locally. One that you get to handle and meet the person you are buying if from face to face.

I just got a used but mint condition (from a known friend) Titan Xp Star Wars Empire edition for $850 CAD

Super happy to replace my GTX 1070 finally. Just did not see the justification for the RTX line prices.

I tried 3 different 1080ti cards until I came across the Geforce Nvidia AMP EXTREME.  I don't know what difference it made compared to the rest, but it hums along just nice.

Not only the RTX line. The Price of new 1080ti's is insane!

I’ve seen a asus rog strix 1080ti for 720 Canadian on Facebook market

Well as I posted above, I got mine for CAD$700. If you want one and you can pick that up in person and get a sales receipt that's not tied to one person i.e. a high street store sales receipt, I'd pick that one up! But they can only go down in price! Right?
