Gigabyte GTX 1080 G1 Gaming RGB Review

Grand Theft Auto V is an action-adventure game played from either a first-person or third-person view. Players complete missions—linear scenarios with set objectives—to progress through the story. Outside of missions, players may freely roam the open world. Composed of the San Andreas open countryside area and the fictional city of Los Santos, the world is much larger in area than earlier entries in the series. It may be fully explored after the game's beginning without restriction, although story progress unlocks more gameplay content.

We maximise all the image quality settings, but leave anti aliasing turned off, as it dramatically impacts performance.

The Titan Z is a great card for Grand Theft Auto V, performance is way ahead of anything else. Still, a 109 average for the Gigabyte GTX 1080 G1 Gaming RGB is very impressive.

Switch 2 uses custom Nvidia chip with Ampere GPU

While Nintendo has not fully detailed the hardware inside of the Switch 2, we are finally starting to get details on the chip powering the system. According to Digital Foundry, the Switch 2 utilises a custom Nvidia T329 processor, which means it uses graphics technology similar to what we can find in RTX 30 series GPUs.

  1. I’d like to hear Kitguru’s take on:
    http://videocardz.com/61121/asus-and-msi-accused-of-sending-modified-cards-to-the-press

    Makes me wonder how widespread this is, and if they’ve experienced or suspected this from cards they’ve reviewed.

    Such small gains might seem meaningless, but when cards are priced the same, from the same model, have similar cooling/oc headroom capabilities and power draw, that slight performance edge can sway sales and reviews.

  2. GIGA sent higher clock sample than retail?

  3. Interesting, thanks for sharing. I haven’t reviewed the MSI cards yet, so I can’t comment on the clock speeds. The asus GTX 1080 strix card we had seemed to be all set at the retail speeds you buy in a store. I have an ASUS 1070 GTX STRIX with me now, but i haven’t started testing it yet.

  4. “No coil whine’ –> you never know if another card will have it or not.

  5. My FE GTX 1080 did a lot better at 4k then this card, odd!

  7. Actually its normally related to the capacitors, so its generally a design related issue for each specific board.

  8. So where can I buy one? There’s no stock anywhere in the UK! :<

  9. There was also a review of the Asus GTX 1080 Strix OC on this site. Conclusion was ‘no coil whine’. In the meanwhile several reviews wrote that it had a little coil whine. And one guy an a forum had one with really load coil whine. So there is that.

  10. with the stupid high prices they are charging for the cards id say waith a few weeks and see what amd come up with cause 400-450 pounds uk for the 1070, the successor to the 300 pond when released 970 is way to much money for a card that isn’t their 1080 flagship.

  11. yours is a good chip maybe, better boosting??

  12. I had two of these… incredible amounts of coil whine. I’ve never heard anything like it! Tried two PC’s across a few different power supplies. Plat Plus. Avoid like the plague.
