We tested all the solutions today at 1600p and 4K resolutions. All cards were tested in the last week with the Nvidia 353.06 Forceware driver, and the AMD 15.4 Catalyst driver.
If you want to read more about our test system, or are interested in buying the same Kitguru Test Rig, check out our article with links on this page. We are using an Asus PB287Q 4k and Apple 30 inch Cinema HD monitor for this review today.

We perform generally under real world conditions, meaning KitGuru tests games across five closely matched runs and then average out the results to get an accurate median figure. If we use scripted benchmarks, they are mentioned on the relevant page.

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
