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 can freely roam the open world. Composed of the San Andreas open countryside area and the fictional city of Los Santos, the world of Grand Theft Auto V is much larger in area than earlier entries in the series.
The world may be fully explored from the beginning of the game without restrictions, although story progress unlocks more gameplay content. (Wikipedia).
We maximised every slider – FXAA was enabled, although we left all other Anti Aliasing settings disabled – based on reader feedback from previous reviews. ‘Ignore Suggested Limits’ was turned ‘ON’.
We found some intensive sections of the Grand Theft Auto 5 world and tested each card multiple times to confirm accuracy. The game demanded around 3.5GB of GPU memory at 1440p and just over 4GB at 4K.
A silky smooth gaming experience at 1440p, averaging over 80 frames per second.
That is some bit of kit, all I need now is an extra bit of cash to get one…..about £598 extra should do it 😛
Bah humbug.
On page 2 you say ‘Direct CU II cooler’ not sure Asus would agree with that. And what is the difference between this one and the normal windforce cooler? Does this replace it?
I have fixed that, thanks for bringing it up. I think they designed this particular cooling system just for this specific card
On page 3.Overclocking, for these overclocking settings, what is the max GPU Boost Clock as reported by Afterburner as it doesn’t appear here in the photo, I guess it could reach the 1480/1490 Mhz with that extra voltage on the core
Is this better than the Gigabyte gtx 980 ti g1?
How do you change the lighting effects as there doesn’t appear to be any option to do this in the OC GURU
What rig are you guys using, I can’t find any mention of it in the review!
Its in the latest edition of OC Guru II
Hey, u did mistake here: “Cons:
The Asus ROG Matrix GTX980 Ti Platinum is the best GTX980 ti we have tested, but it is also the most expensive.” Not Asus, but Gigabyte! =))) Oh, these copypasters…
the ROG Matrix GTX980 Ti Platinum is from Asus. They are simply saying this is not the best GTX 980 Ti, so is the ROG Matrix. I don’t see any mistake in there >.<
I’ll call bullshit on that , it’s not any less secure than it was
