This has been covered extensively on various sites like Gamersnexus and others.

The failures are apparently not really more than any other GPU by % - it just get observed on more because the thing costs £1000-£1500

Someone on the forums here posted up about the space invaders error on their 2080 ti - it was the first report of that kind I've seen on the forums.

The 2080 ti is fine to purchase, depending on uses/build balance/budget etc. If it happens to be one of the fraction of a percent of GPUs that has a problem, this is what warranties are for. Just like CPUs, storage, motherboards and everything else.
