Gigabyte G1 Gaming 1080 Review - Plus Doom Giveaway
- Thread starter Gregster
- Start date
Maybe since your a ocuker put a fresh loaf of hovis in the background as a gimmick in ur vids to show where your roots are from.
haha, I like that or build a pyramid of something with a burger on top
I always run a 1:1 fan profile for reviews/testing but for gaming, I am going to be honest and say I rarely OC. I let the card do what it wants basically.

I thought I would share my full review of this fantastic GPU.
Thanks to OcUK (Cheers Bailey), I also have a copy of Doom to giveaway. To be in with a chance to win, Tell me what I could do to improve my reviews (I know there is loads) and I will enter you in a random generator, which will be drawn on Saturday at 8pm
Remember to keep cards on the same side through comparison reviews

Agreed, crashes are a PAIN! Esp if you have some green caches to extract
Left mine boosting at 2Ghz/10800 for the moment and it's performing awesomely
So SO happy with it, allows me to run at Ultra w/PCSS+HBAO+ in the Division @ 3440 res

Top job as always Greg.
As I have said in other past posts your getting better with each new video. I can't really add much to what everyone else has said apart from maybe roughly scripting out your videos beforehand to aid the flow.
I like the face to face presenter kinda thing better than just audio over gaming footage but I suppose if you mix it up a bit then it will be even better.
Oh and review the RX480 when it comes out
Keep up the good work....I aint got Doom yet, but was thinking of getting it for the old schooler in me.

I can slip a 480 past the Mrs (even though I told her I won't be buying anything for quite some time) and look forward to seeing what is what with that card.
Haha, you know that and not what you want with Green Caches at all (and I would get proper huffy) lol

This makes me tempted to do a review of the hof thats otw
If I was you I'd go into a little more detail and show the test environment. Before and after shots of titan x to 1080 would have been nice too when showing the games.
I did like the cost comments at the end of the video, I also liked your commentary over the game itself. Shame you didn't actually show the card but I do understand there was a seperate video to this.
BTW I already have doom.

Only thing I would change is the lighting of your room. To get a more uniform look at your mug
Your temps are 66C which are lower than other reviews on the web which are around 71C. I assume it is because you have increased the fan speed to 66% from the default which is around 52%. You didn't mention that in your review. Not a major difference but you need to mention such changes.
Also do a firestrike loop or similar to get a better representation of temperature under constant load. The old Tombraider or Witcher 3 will push temps higher than the Division too.

So you want me to try and make the card look bad then
I should indeed have said I run a 1:1 fan profile (I did in my first vid) and long term gaming remains the same temps but thanks for the input.I am a bit limited with other GPUs and would love to do that but a bit limited with funds also, so not something I can really afford to do. I would also feel a little disingenuous using someone else's results but I do compare to my Titan X on other vids but solid points
