The tests were performed in a controlled air conditioned room with temperatures maintained at a constant 23c – a comfortable environment for the majority of people reading this.Idle temperatures were measured after sitting at the desktop for 30 minutes. Load measurements were acquired by playing Crysis Warhead for 30 minutes and measuring the peak temperature. We also have included Furmark results, recording maximum temperatures throughout a 30 minute stress test. All fan settings were left on automatic.
Idle temperatures are improved over the reference card by 16c, under Furmark load and 23c when gaming. Class leading results.
The GPU is using Nvidia’s GPU Boost 2.0 which dynamically adjusts clock speed and voltage settings, factoring in temperatures.
We install the graphics card into our system and measure temperatures on the back of the PCB with our Fluke Visual IR Thermometer/Infrared Thermal Camera. This is a real world running environment.
Details shown below.
Gigabyte have added a backplate to this card which helps reduce hotspots across the rear of the PCB. The backplate measures up to 65c – excellent results for maximum board longevity.

Weak review. You have got to do better than this.
Shut the fuck up.

Why wouldn’t you have run the card in its stock OC mode?
Also, good job throwing on things like msaa x4 for GTA 4 at 4k. Nobody is going to play with that enabled and it destroys the framerate.
To anyone who who has not tested 4k in that game and may see this and think these cards can’t run the game at that res: I have a EVGA superclocked 980 and with msaa off and grass turned to very high from ultra and the advanced graphics settings not being on or maxed (so basically things that offer little visual improvement), I can get 40 in the city and a drop to the high 20s in heavy foliage at 4k. The 980 ti will probably then get one above 50 in the city and in the mid-high 30s to maybe even the low 40s range in heavy foliage.
GREAT REVIEW, Zardon
GTX980Ti with its 6GB of VRAM is the Biggest 4k Gaming Future Proofing Bang for your GPU Buck.
This why I make GIGABYTE G1 GAMING GeForce GTX 980Ti a MUST HAVE BUY, I’m also looking at the ZOTAC GeForce GTX 980 AMP! Extreme, its a bigger card (3 slots vs 2) and there will be many more 4K future proofing 980Ti from NVIDIA’s partners. We will be placing a order soon for my many happy customers who buy our custom gaming rigs.
I agree with wowgivemeabreak, msaa is a performance killer, and AA isn’t needed at high res.
What an idiot. You are the one replying to a spam bot as if it will stop. Get a clue asshole
the result are nothing but fraud

& there is not that big difference between r9 295×2 & g1 on other 2 reviews
how on earth all of a sudden this one is so different with that other 2,!!!!?????
i rather read more reliable reviews not kitguru’s which is different from all resources by large margin,
no thanks, i was wrong looking here.
Shut the fuck up.
