Nvidia GTX 980 Owners Thread

where can i find the Evga bois which fixes the Display port issue ?

I have NVidia Reference cards with no vendor apart from Nvidia of course as these cards are Dell OEM .

My BIOS is 84.04.1F.00.02 .

would 84.04.1F.00.86 be ok with my 3 cards .

my cards are 75.5 , 72.1 and 73.4 ASIC quality .

also has anybody used "TrickMasterPC" custom rom on a reference card ?

Got my card under water. Getting 1600 core and a vastly improved 7900 on mem. Volts @ 1.25.

Card idles about 4c above coolant (28), and peaks at around 10c above coolant (42). I don't think I'll bother with a custom bios as gains will be minimal.

Despite its pitfalls, I'd love to pair it up for SLI but... those prices now! :eek:

There really is no need for SLI with these cards at clocks 1550/4000+

Well impressed with the performance of one card. 980Ti should be a monster of a card if the 980 performance is anything to go by! :eek:

Mine will do me fine till full fat Maxwell comes out.

I was dead against going back to SLI but all this talk of stacked memory in DX12 has got me interested again.

... And now I see the Gigabyte G1 Gaming is on offer!

Happens overclocked or not, and only in SWTOR. Everything else is fine.

There are quite a lot of posts on this on the web of people have the same issues after patch 3.0.

Have you run and checked the log in GPU-Z?

Also have you a modded Bios. sorry if asking questions that maybe in the thread but it;s soo long.
 
Hey Strudders how are you finding the iChill ? It doesn't seem a very popular choice but I am finding it a lot better than the KFA I had previously. I don't like the little fan on top its a bit whinny. Runs really cool and will do 1542mhz on stock. Have you altered the bios and if so what did you change ?

Hello!

I am loving it.

It runs so cool even under stress has never been over 63c. With my case fans it is silent. Also clocks well. I am achieving a stable 1563 at stock voltage on Heaven, which give me a 1990's score.

Not confident to alter the bios but I suspect it could go higher.

What does yours boost to at stock? I am reporting 1392

But it does not like voltage above stock on Fire Strike and I have a fairly low reported boost of 1544 before driver crashes. However that is still 13400 range at a usable stable clock.

I am playing Skyrim at the moment with ful DSR and HD packs and it just sits at 60fps.
