The GTX 980 Ti owners thread.

Can anyone tell me if the Zotac AMP can match the overclocks of the more expensive cards such as the Gigabyte G1, etc? Is it really worth the extra £££, since I have pre-ordered the AMP for £500?
 
Too right ;)

Ordered an X3 Ultra. I think its pretty good value for money and heard its quiet! Anybody have any further info about this?




Glad to help.

Also just finished setting up and ordering these, finally a competitor to the EVGA Hybrid and if you ask me this looks far superior, faster clocks and LED lights. :D

Can anyone tell me if the Zotac AMP can match the overclocks of the more expensive cards such as the Gigabyte G1, etc? Is it really worth the extra £££, since I have pre-ordered the AMP for £500?

It really is silicon lottery, but basic AMP is a reference PCB, G1 is custom PCB with more power phase.

The Zotac AMP Extreme I believe is Zotac's answer to the G1, but as with anything it mainly comes down to GPU lottery, some people have reference cards hitting like 1525/8400 on custom BIOS. :)
 
Ive had the 980 versions of the inno3d x3 Ichill and Herculez and they are very good cards both ran cool and quiet but did not overclock as well as the g1 980 but that might be down to me as Im hopeless LOL :D

Nice one :) Currently have a Inno3D 780 TI in my current rig (going onto MM soon!).

Not looking to overclock at all tbh, never had much luck with overclocking GPUs. And tbh, is there really much more grunt you can get out of overclocking? Its only going to be 10% or so?

The few reviews made it look like above G1 and Evga, I also went for it, in the past years that cooler was always well regarded (as long as you don't need SLI). Not surprised the price has gone up to 575 now.

Nice one :) Thanks!

It will OC as well as any reference card whilst being a lot cooler and quieter... For £500 it was a very very good price, I actually ordered two on impulse but have since decided to keep to just one card but make it an aftermarket PCB as well as cooler... I have an MSI Gaming on order but think I am going to cancel that as well and get an AMP extreme from somewhere else assuming they turn up when they say next week

Been reading all the reviews. The best ones seem to be
Gigabyte g1.msi gamer.evga superclocked and the inno3d but there aint much it 1 or 2 fps which no one can see.
The g1 seems to be the loudest but that wouldnt bother me
Msi the quietest.

You can easily get 10-15% more performance in less than an hour of tweaking, without any risks.
Besides the "principle" of getting your money worth, there are tangible benefits like maybe staying above 60fps to avoid V-Sync dips.

I mean, when is that easy, why not? There are only four variables to change on the fly. As soon as I get the card I'll just try it with the Core at 1500(minding the boost), power target @ 110% and see what happens.

Okay I just hope I get a decent one that overclocks well, never seems the case with CPU's. :(

Yeah I guess the price was good, just didn't want it to be an overclocking flop.

1 or 2 fps isn't really noticeable so the only other factors are noise and temps. The cooling is quite noisy in the review, but hopefully I can change the fan curve and the temps stay low 70's.

I ordered the evga sc today i didnt realise there was 2 different models one with back plate so i rang overclockers the guy told me the plus version was better as it had back plate, put he also told tne the chip was better and it was cherry picked and would overclock better. Can you tell me if this is correct as i cannot find any info on this.

Which other 980ti models come with super dooper updated PCBs? Does the Inno X3 Ultra and the MSI Gaming?
 
Has anyone got two of these running in sli, I play in 4k and at the moment I have 2 x r295x2 in my rig. The 4k is awsome and they are great cards but I have purchased a 4k tv and want to game on that.
I need to sell my cards and move on from amd due to a lack of hdmi 2.0 support, can anyone share any experience they have with 4K sli before I pull the trigger on two of these.

No that's fair comment :)

So these things supposed to do 1500MHz with no sweet?
Just need to up GPU core?
Whats the best application to overclock these days :D (Been out the loop for so long!)
