That is disappointing. I don't think it's impossible to upgrade the gpu from the technical standpoint, at least not for the 1080ti model. Personally, I love my Corsair One. It is a great product and delivers the monstrosity (at least for now) power that it is advertised to. The 2080ti upgrade is not that necessary for me since the "leap" isn't that big and the first generation rtx cards don't work well with rtx and 4k at the same time. Still, if an upgrade option is provided, I would seriously consider it for some games that still struggle to reach 4K60fps even with reasonable graphic settings.

Thanks for the correction! As much as I would love to own a 2080ti Corsair One, my wallet unfortunately says otherwise. What is the possibility that an upgrade for the 1080ti model will be offered? And since I'm moving to Japan, is it possible to get an upgrade there if the upgrade service is offered?

So I did some research myself. It turns out the 1080ti in Corsair One is a MSI 1080ti Sea Hawk without the case on. If MSI doesn't change the specs of the case for 2080ti Sea Hawk, and given the specs of 2080ti from nvidia, theoratically it is upgradable. Still, it might still takea a while till MSI releases the 2080ti Sea Hawk.

I wonder if the 1080ti model can be ungraded to 2080 ti since the 2080 ti has two fans whereas the 1080 ti has only one. Also, if it is, should I purchase a 2080 ti founders edition (not sure if it right, but it seems those made by other manufacturers are too big for Corsair One) by myself or will a paid upgrade option be provided? Many thanks!
