I forget which video it was but this was not a 1080 Ti, It was just another 1080, I think it was one of Bitwits maybe ? I'll have a look but the Gigabyte guy did say "this 1080".
EDIT
Here it is, He specifically says 1080 -

Most aftermarket 1080's have dual 8 pins.

You do know that people can say that just to make you even more curious...

They can - but why would they? There's no need in this instance. It adds nothing to it if it's a plain 1080 - it also takes nothing away from it so there's no reason for just adding hype. Dimitri is usually pretty good with avoiding BS.
Yes he could be wrong but so could the other site.

I suspect this is just another 1080. Gigabyte are known for staggering their GPU releases and announcing multiple versions using the same core periodically. Could be a Ti, though.

Looks like it really is just another 1080, From gigabytes own site -

Yup, same here... Got the Gigabyte GTX 980Ti G1 Gaming after I had watched JayzTwoCents video on it. Nothing wrong about this video or anything, just really fell in love with how silent it was under full load compared to the founders edition 980Ti at the time.
But when got it, instant massive coil whine that just made my ears bleed

Hehe I did the exact same thing! I was like.. OMG this thing is so silent MUST BUY! And I was so disappointed when I first got, not only did it sound like a jet engine in use, but also extreme coil whine. Got it swapped for another one, did the exact same thing except this one coil whine both in idle and under load. Yep that was a winner!

I also like how they have written on their website "our own binning process ensures the best chips in our GPUs"...

Which is weird because "launching from Nvidia very soon" suggests it's a new GPU. But that's marketing for you.

I had a GTX 770 4GB Windforce very briefly and wow, The coil whine made the cats next door cry XD

I've had two Gigabyte Windforce X3 cards and neither whined. But my brother's did. My ASUS Strix DC3 cooler whines, though, in some games.
