MSI GTX980 Ti Gaming 6G

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.

The MSI GTX980 Ti Gaming 6G delivers a perfectly playable game experience, although if you want a consistent 60 frames per second at these ultra high image quality settings, an SLi configuration would be needed.

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. Very nice review, I almost regret not waiting for the Non reference model cards, but my card overclocks better than this sample , Plus that Green Geforce GTX logo pulsing through my corsair graphite 780T window is pretty pleasing to the eye. The Fury X driver optimizations can’t come quick enough, because right now it has well and truly been placed beneath heel of the GTX 980Ti non reference cards

    This one is very tempting, considering it’s essentially the same as the G1 and Strix, but cheaper than either one. Very nice review, Kitguru, thanks!

  3. I never imagined that the MSI would actually beat the Gigabyte and be cheaper…..very impressed.

  5. Just got mine. Absolutely love it – it’s a great looking card. Hey – I just essentially got a Titan X for ~$600.

    I just like the MSI GTX980 Ti Gaming 6G over the Gigabyte. Just MHO. And not a hint of coil whine either.

  6. Great review ! Just got mine 2 days ago. Cannot wait to get all my component to finish my new rig, and see how works this beast 🙂
