**Nvidia GeForce GTX 980 Ti Review Thread**

[agnes]

There are cards with factory fitted aftermarket coolers.

I get that, but I've already got my 'reference design' on order and I can either buy an aftermarket cooler such as the Arctic Accelero Extreme IV for the same price difference. I'm just wondering if it will fit.

 

[agnes]

Think this will be quite?

I see, I would drop them an email.

I'm now trying to decide if I can indeed swap my order to a EVGA 980ti SC as the cooler will be more quite I think. I'll ring in the morning. Hopefully nothing will have been shipped.

Nice was not expecting the 980 ti this month read the whole of this thread not keen how noisy an hot these cards get think will wait another month or two before buying one will be going into a new build so waiting on the new CPU / boards to be released.
Be a waste in my old PC which has a 670 gtx at the moment the EVGA Hybrid looks good never had water cooling before and like the Gigabyte G2.

My interest levels are rising again.

When will OC be listing this card?

I like my 980 G1 so I'm quite interested in getting this.

Went for the Hybrid as I would rather throw the thermal limit out of the window with little hassle or bother. We all know custom is the best way, but even you watercooling veterans must sigh at all the effort needed to set up and maintain a loop.

Yeah exactly, just plug in and play, You know temps are going to be good. These AIO cards are ideal tbh.

Hopefully OCUk will stock the Titan X hybrid soon.

Loop pains are a good way of keeping us away from the temptation that is GPU upgrades we don't really need

Sounds like a 2 year menstrual cycle

No matter how many times I block a graphics card it never feels right dismantling a perfectly good and working card.

Hi Guys,

I currently have 670 SLI in my system and only game at 1080p but do intend to move up to 4K within 2 years.

Would a 980Ti give me a big enough increase on SLI 670 to justify the spend? My thinking is move up to 980Ti to game at 60fps with the likes of GTAV, Far Cry 4 and Batman: Arkham Knight 1080p with no compromises for the time being and SLI 980Ti when I move up to 4K.

Is this a good line of thinking?

I am playing with this now in Taipai and it is a stunning card.

 

[Yaayuh!]

Is there a chance someone can do the reference card without the DVI port? It just really gets in the way of the exhausting hot air.

 

[Strafer323]

What's peoples opinion on the MSI GeForce GTX 980 Ti Gaming? Is the EVGA better or is it just preference?

Have you managed to get your hands on one of these yet ?

the 295x is still the fastest `graphics card` - just not single GPU....


tehehe I`ll get my coat

Meant to be some in this week, if you click on the individual cards in the link some of them will have an eta.

Thanks Vietboy, Gerard, I think I'll try to wait till the end of the month If the 390 is a no-show though it's time to take the plunge. Will have to offload a 780ti somehow though!

Only problem with the 295x2 is that the crossfire drivers need to be constantly upto date and they haven't been tbh. I should know, switched to 980's from mine a couple of months ago (and I loved it when it worked great!)

Experience has been like night and day in regards to support
