To get on the Roll of Honour all you have to do is post a pic with your user name on it of your 980 Ti.​

Hey Kaap - are you forgetting someone, or am I just not worthy of your list??

 

[mattyc1977]

Mmm, try the new drivers. Bios should be ok then. Just that with some new cards I've seen people who required an update fir the card to be recognized.

I will update the bios to the latest version which is 2012 and install newest drivers. Is anyone running a 980ti on a asus z68 chipset and if so, how old is your bios? I think my card is duff......

 

[Cavallino]

Folks, for kicks I tried the Firestrike Ultra, but for some reason it bombed, even at stock settings. What gives?

Anyone?

 

[maka12]

hi
on my msi 980ti gaming when i set to overclock in the msi app the boost clock says 1266mhz it should be at 1279mhz is this ok?

thanks

 

[alexp999]

Fan was a bit noisy, but I have now connected it to a motherboard header and got it running at a fixed 60% duty cycle. Much quieter, temps still didn't go above 55 deg C and you could feel the heat being shifted out the back

 

[Cavallino]

Does this fan ever turn on? I don't get this. When does it kick in exactly?

Do you mean the shroud fan on the card of my hybrid?

Finally joined the pr0s

You mean the fan on the Rad? or the card? I don't understand how some people say it's virtually 'silent' and others like yourself say it's noisy, what type of noise is it?

I'm looking for a near silent card, I don't hear a peep out of my EVGA 980 SC while capped to 60 hertz.

 

[alexp999]

I mean the radiator fan. It has a fair bit of motor drone and shifts a lot of air, not overly quietly.

I am used to large, slow fans in my PC. I might replace it at some point.

I found the speed set by the pump at idle still to be too fast. I like my PC really quiet when I am just looking on the internet, etc.

This card will not be good for people looking for a completely silent solution though, as you can hear the pump working, even if you swap for a silent fan. Not loud enough to be a problem for me though.

Mine says 1266 on GPU Z too but it actually boosts over 1300 under load so I guess it doesn't matter really.

 

[alexp999]

Without any OCing, this Hybrid is managing a constant GPU clock of 1366.5 during the Valley benchmark...

 

[Cavallino]

One thing I don't get, my GPU is supposed to boost to 1271, but MSI is reporting it going up to 1340 odd.

What gives here?

 

[alexp999]

The stated boost clock is an average.

If the card has the temperature, power and voltage headroom to boost further, it will.

Very Interesting, thanks for the feedback, I may reconsider upgrading right now then as my 980 SC is damn near silent and that is very important to me, sometimes more important than frames as I use my machine for a lot of web surfing at night also.

But just now Ive been running 3dmark with no overclocking or extra power etc.
Its boosting but sometimes crashes.. not sure why!

Ok thanks thought there might be somthing wrong with card

 

[Digital X]

@Angerer, let me know how that card goes, was considering buying it today but wanted to wait see what other variants would be around that price.
