Palit GTX 1080 GameRock Premium Edition Review

Rise of the Tomb Raider is a third-person action-adventure game that features similar gameplay found in 2013's Tomb Raider. Players control Lara Croft through various environments, battling enemies, and completing puzzle platforming sections, while using improvised weapons and gadgets in order to progress through the story. It uses a Direct X 12 capable engine.

We enable Direct X 12, Vsync is off and graphics are set to the ‘very high' profile, shown above. We test the Nvidia Titan Z with the SLi optimisation both disabled, then enabled. This is clearly marked in the graph. See more HERE.

At Ultra HD 4k, even the Palit GTX 1080 GameRock Premium Edition can't maintain a 60 frame rate. Still performance will be perfectly acceptable for many gamers, holding well above 40 at all times.

    What about EVGA FTW? I’ve heard it the fastest card isn’t it why it didn’t include in this test?

  2. No it’s not. Actually it’s the weakest of the whole lot.

  4. Lol, no. He meant the reference Nvidia 1080 as the fastest card in the world (which actually was) and the EVGA has improved its performance and cooling (which also is true). That said, the others AIB cards do that too, and better as the EVGA (bar the Gigabyte Gaming G1).
    At the moment you have the Zotac AMP Extreme as fastest 1080 closely followed by the Palit. The EVGA is rather noisy and hot.

  5. Very good reveiw… enjoying KitGuru..

  6. So glad I picked one of these up for only £480 off amazon.

  7. I like the looks but is this going to give the 11gb/s upgrade like everybody else is?
