Gigabyte GTX980 Ti G1 Gaming Review

To test power consumption today we are using a Keithley Integra unit and we measure power consumption from the whole system when idle and when gaming, excluding the monitor.
power consumption
Maxwell cards are always extremely power efficient. As we can see the GTX980Ti system consumes 329 watts under gaming load and the EVGA overclocked card takes around 7 watts more.

  7. 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.

  8. 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.

  9. What an idiot. You are the one replying to a spam bot as if it will stop. Get a clue asshole
