3DMark 11 is designed for testing DirectX 11 hardware running on Windows 7 and Windows Vista the benchmark includes six all new benchmark tests that make extensive use of all the new features in DirectX 11 including tessellation, compute shaders and multi-threading. After running the tests 3DMark gives your system a score with larger numbers indicating better performance. Trusted by gamers worldwide to give accurate and unbiased results, 3DMark 11 is the best way to test DirectX 11 under game-like loads. If you want to learn more about this benchmark, or to buy it yourself, head over to this page.
The Nvidia GTX980 Ti scores 22,408 points in the older Direct X 11 benchmark from Futuremark. The GTX Titan X by comparison scores 22,821 points. When we overclock the GTX980 Ti to 1349mhz, the score improves dramatically – 26,876 points – and ahead of the reference clocked GTX Titan Z. AMD's R9 295X2 dual GPU card takes the top position, with 30,073 points.

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle has been a great surprise to end the year …
Disappointed kitguru….No 1080p ?
a 980 will already have no issue with 1080p…Anyone who buys a card this powerful has left 1080p behind
I wouldn’t say its overkill for 1440p….I personally have been waiting for a card that can get me great fps at this resolution. Sure a 980 will get me 60 fps in most games…but hell I have a 144hz refresh rate, and I love me some 100+ fps smoothness, even to the point that with my current 770, I crash my settings down just to make things smoother
Why the 21 page format? It’s quite annoying to keep scrolling and clicking. Why not shorten it into a 7 page format, by saying putting the games on one page, the benchmarks on another, the temperature and power efficiency, etc.
Good review though, wasn’t expecting one this soon, and unless AMD pull the stops out with Fury, then looks like I’m finally going to be upgrading for the first time in 4 years now! (had a chronic case of ‘wait-and-see’ syndrome).
http://www.geforce.com/hardware/geforce-gtx-980-ti/buy-gpu advertised for 649.99 on Nvidia’s site
Not really, what if I want to game on max settings for years to come and am still happy with the 1080p resolution?
Not everyone is a resolution whore.
I am going through the same “wait-and-see” syndrome. Pls halp.
Should I wait for Intel Broadwell processors that are coming this fall along with whatever NVIDIA is going to roll out this year (if any)
or should I build a system with a i7 4790K and 980Ti ?
I see almost no sites are testing compute performance for the 980Ti … I assume NVIDIA have forbidden this …
Enjoy holly days kitguru … kEEP READING
Pascal’s not coming till next year…Nvidia’s using HBM2, and a new process for it, so it’s not possible for them to get it out before December.
It all really depends on what you’ve got now, how long you’ve been waiting and how much you want to spend. If you’re rocking a 680/780 I’d say wait. I’m on a practically ancient 1.5GB 580 now, so this is my stop!
Wait a couple weeks to see what AMD does. I’ve never bought from the Red team before, but everything we’re hearing about Fury is making it seem like it’s gonna wipe the floor with the 980Ti (ok, bit of an exaggeration). HBM1 could prove to be huge, and the card is incredibly small and has a hybrid cooling system, which is perfect for the SFF build I’m after.
In terms of Broadwell…honestly, it doesn’t matter. Any i5/i7 will be more than enough, and yes, that extends all the way back to Nehalem.
Are you planning on using it for a bit of mining? (see what I did there?)
I play with an EIZO FORIS FG2421 monitor 240Hz in Turbo Mode and need 240 FPS constantly in 1920×1080.
Só,a GTX 980TI is not enough for some titles such as : GTAV,Witcher3 and só on.
I will wait for Pascal next year.
hate this advert spam crap
Now that is overkill, unless you’re some kind of MLG pro gamer who only plays shooter games in tournament’s. I’d take 4k at 40-60 fps over 240fps at 1080p any day of the week.

Great review Kitguru
Maxwell Ti is Best GPU for a future proofing 4K gamine solution and its great performance per watt will enable its partners to offer highly overclocked version. Compute performance has no value to gamers whatsoever but the 980Ti 6GB of memory sure does for 4K gaming.
