**Nvidia GeForce GTX 980 Ti Review Thread**

Just watched it, looks pretty good and performs well.

Good temps.

Very pleased I went with the hybrid after seeing that review! Its not making the wait any easier though!

Titan X still ahead in all games but one. That's crazy, the TX is a beast. Very tempted to get the TX Hybrid, plz get it in stock OCUK.

Still a few niggles with new games and sli. Also, if you stick x2 non reference cooled cards close together, if board spacing is tight you could end up with temps as high/higher than reference models on the top card.

I suppose I could place one in the main pci-e x16 and place the second card on the third pci-e slot below, don't know how that would effect it.
My Case is pretty well cooled though. Does SLI make the top card work harder, or is it really just about board spacing?

Will be on EVGA EU in 2 days (of what was mentioned in the EVGA forums). Hopefully OCUK stock them aswell I need 2 now

The main card (top slot) additionally runs the monitor/monitors aswell as the frame buffer, so yes.

The temptation to not go for the hybrid is too strong.

I'm sure the 980 will be fine for my needs until Pascal comes along though. (If I repeat that enough to myself it will stick hopefully!).

Will the Titan X block fit on a Classy Ti?

No. Classifieds have different pcbs.

 

[ChrisD.]

That's what I thought, thanks for confirming.

 

[Geeman1979]

The Classified Pcb will be a lot bigger.

Has a section when the Nvidia CEO talks about the Titan X and 980Ti in terms of 4k gaming (2:40mins).

You might get hit by a bus tomorrow.

If you've got the cash go for it bud.

lol "our job is to bring value to the market", then he conveniently rules the titan out of that equation.

No idea if its a display bug but the Gigabyte reference currently shows as having 2 in stock..

Gone for the Hybrid as I need a quiet a card as possible. Now to play the waiting game, anyone have an idea of a rough lead time?

I've noticed that on a few listings, says preorder then you click in and it says a few in stock.

 

[Brutos]

Seeing all you guys with your 980 Ti's am getting tempted all the time to pull the trigger AMD hurry up .....

no one know but now it should be over 30 people preorder as this afternoon i asked CS and been told that 26 preorder so far.( that was before the review on youtube upload )

so depend on how many first batch they will get also.

Will reference be noticeably worse for icing than custom cards, keeping in mind will stick them in custom loop?

 

[Geeman1979]

icing?
