Used the glue from the Alpenföhn Passive DRAM / VRAM Chip set, bought the set a while back from OCUK to use on 290X. Ended up swapping the card out so the set was just sitting here. Thought might as well put it to use on the 980. Massive difference in temps, under 50c full load

Nice boom!

Are the heat sinks easy to remove once they've been on a while?

No idea mate, first time I've used them. I'll likely sell this card on with the Antec 920 and heatsinks installed, so will probably never find out if they come off
Cheers, yeah it's nice and cool / quiet. Gaming doesn't even hit 50c. awesome lil cards these.
I imagine when the Ti and Titan X come along we'll see crazy temps again, although Nvidia might go back to using a vapor chamber in the reference cooler, so might not be to bad.

Give 3dmark 11 another run and see if you can improve your score.

Nice one well done, with a bit more tweaking you could probably push a 21K+ Gpu score.
Reminds me of when OCUK did a today only on £30 GTX780's XD

Got my Delivery today! Added another 980! could not stick with just one after all.
Hello looks like we got much the same setup
congrats!

Taken the 6th position, not bad for a 980 with stock bios and AIO considering 8 Pack's cards were probably under LN2
Need more 980's on the scoreboards..

24/7 setting is on EVGA SC, +82 core clock + 100 Memory clock.
Gives turbo up to 1500mhz core.
For Benching is +132 / +200. These cards are really fast..

My EVGA 980 GTX SC with NZXT G10 with logo removed and a swish GeForce Sticker from auction site.

Just grabbeb myself a EVGA SC 980 too, coming from a 780.
Card will do 1500mhz boost clock on stock volts and ref cooler. Upping the voltage in Precison makes no difference, tried AB too and no joy. Anyone notice a voltage hike improve the OC on the EVGA cards?
Memory will barely break +100 before it falls over which is a shame.
