The GTX 980 Ti owners thread.

More hopefully thinking on my part if either of them was 8/8 I wouldnt have any questions about what card i was buying. So stressed at which cards i should get atm. :confused:

What do you want and is money no object.

I did the calculations pages okay and the reality is all cards will boost to 1450mhz. Including reference. So if money no object get the hydrocopper. Best warranty and comes prefttied with full cover block. Best warranty.

Sli and not using water get reference evga As they warranty cooler removal if you change your mind about water.

Not going water but money no object get gigabyte g1, msi gaming, zotac extreme or galaxy hof, evga classified depending on what warranty you want. All are 8+8 pin.

if it was me i would seriously consider if the 8+8 pin giving about 50-80mhz more overclock is worth the extra £80+

Depends on your finances and thats your business.

If you tell us what your want to do with the card we can better advise also what case you are putting in.
 
Just bought the MS1 gaming, cant wait to fit it! Would post a picture for ROH, but cant work out how to get photos on my posts, i try the link and website asks for a URL, any ideas?
 
Yes, but if check all the t&c it says the product needs to be returned as new, not used, where as the old policy was satisfaction which is not the same, they now reserve the right to charge a restocking fee... Shouldn't be a problem for a genuine complaint like coil whine, but the new policy isn't as favourable as the old one

Companies T&Cs do no affect your statutory rights, they can put whatever they want in those T&Cs but it doesn't change the fact that you have 14 days to inspect goods (which means use them) and return them for whatever reason as long as they are in as new condition with all packaging. Re-stocking fees are not allowed either, all your responsible for is the initial postage cost and return postage to the store.
 
Happy days!!

Pair of MSI 980ti G1's

Got them fitted last night, which required a complete drain of the loop, removing the 290x's and then a rejig of the loop as these will be on air for a bit.

Any idea if the 'reference' full cover blocks will fit this card? No signs of a specific one listed anywhere yet.

:)

New around these parts... This beast arrived Tuesday:

exixH6U.png

Clocks to 2000MHz memory and 1470MHz boost, anything higher caused crashes. Didn't seem to be using higher than 109% power even under 4K load though.

However it has awful coil whine, but I've learnt that's a common occurrence with the Windforce models.

thx! got it

Can i go on the ROH please?

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.​
 
Decided to RMA my card, any idea roughly how long it takes for the whole process?

I have no spare GPU so I guess I'm going to have to nab a 970 for the time being.
 
Companies T&Cs do no affect your statutory rights, they can put whatever they want in those T&Cs but it doesn't change the fact that you have 14 days to inspect goods (which means use them) and return them for whatever reason as long as they are in as new condition with all packaging. Re-stocking fees are not allowed either, all your responsible for is the initial postage cost and return postage to the store.

No it doesn't, they changed the law, goods now have to be returned in a resaleable condition or they can make a deduction for loss

Ocuk's new terms use the exact same wording as the updated law so they comply exactly

If they have to bgrade an item because you opened it and used it, they can deduct that from your refund. They can, it doesnt always mean they will. But ocuk no longer offer a no questions 14 day satisfaction policy, which is what I replied to.

Ok so my final question before I take the dive. If I order tonight and my brother takes delivery tomorrow and I arrive home on the 1st of August, if I plug in my card in that date and notice any problems (coil whine being my biggest fear) am I still eligible to RMA through ocUK?

It'll be after the 14-day period although within the 28-day as TwsT states :)
