Skylake is currently the best gaming chip.
I dont buy reference ones
Even a triple fan card at 100% is irritating, more so the fact theres 3 fans going mental instead of one.
I think it's party down to the fact he said he has EVERYTHING maxed out. In the real world no one in their right mind is going to max out the AA at 4k. thats madness. Also the grass in GTA V at ultra is just silly hard on GPUs.
Well there's kaap who seems to refuse to play anything at 4k without everything up as high as possible.

Not necessarily.
I think they'd want to put things into a good light, but there's a good case for not overstating things, either. What you get from early hype and any short term investor confidence you can also destroy with disappointment in the public reception when the expectations you built up were not met.
What a **** review by Edward, no mention of ambient temps or GPU comparisons.
83c full load
Reference cards from NVIDIA are always designed for silent running, they always target around 80c load temperatures and maintain fan RPM to hold at this temperature area.
So for all we know the fan could have being only ramping to like 30-40%, NVIDIA's fan profile is geared towards silence and as such 80c load area is their target.
If you want the card to run cooler then you need to set a different fan profile for high RPM to reduce temps, which if your overclocking or benchmarking is fine or just set to 100%.
But 80c running will do no harm, the card is designed for it.
It was a pretty lazy effort definitely. Obviously a 'me first' sort of cash-in for a few clicks.

Have you had a play with the new card yet Gibbo?

I think the fact they showed the card running at 67c is more surprising, they never really said it was full load but it seemed like they were implying that those were full load temps.
Dont know exactly what FastSync is yet, but no, it doesn't sound like a replacement for Gsync, nor an all-purpose replacement for vsync. Seems like it's a VR-friendly form of vysnc that comes with a smaller latency penalty.
And if there is any 1080VR card, it might be like the 980Ti they had, which was just the normal 980Ti but with a front panel for the ports, so you're not routing the headset cable from the back of the computer.
