The new Nvidia Pascal architecture brought a very nice leap in performance for gamers and VR environment. Manufacturers of graphics cards made their own implementation and today I've written about Asus GTX 1080 Strix Gaming.My impression is very good, esp...
The ROG Strix GTX 1080 is the Royale with cheese - and I do like my Pulp Fiction quotes! The Strix ticks all the right boxes from factory tweak to looks, to the nice RGB LED system up-to the cooling levels. Noise wise, you will be able to slightly hear t...
Large overclock out of the box, Fans turn off in idle, Quiet, Good performance increase over reference, Two fan headers for case fans, Temperatures below 80°C - no throttling, Power efficient, 8 GB VRAM, Backplate included, Customizable RGB lighting, New

The ASUS STRIX GTX 1080 Gaming OC is available online for $679 - but it is out of stock at the moment. Large overclock out of the box Fans turn off in idle Quiet Good performance increase over reference Two case fan headers that are synced with the GPU's...

The nVidia GTX 1080 was far in excess of our expectations. We knew it would be good, and we'd heard clues as to exactly how good it was, when it turned up and blew our socks off. We'd only just got around to finding our socks and putting them back on when...
I’m well on my way towards reviewing over a dozen GTX 1080’s and GTX 1070’s and I have a feeling regardless how many I eventually look at, the ASUS STRIX OC cards will stand out in my mind. In a market that’s completely saturated with different looking bu...
Looks fantastic, Overclocked to near maximum performance out of the box, Great build quality, Additional fan headers, Ready for extreme overclocking,
Fan noise can be unbearably loud, Next to no overclocking headroom for the core,
The ASUS ROG STRIX GTX 1080 O8G GAMING is the fastest single-GPU card ASUS has ever produced. The price is just about right to warrant an immediate purchase...

For a card priced at R15 000 or $720, there is no value-proposition argument to offer since none can really be made at this price level. It boils down to a simple argument: If you want one of the fastest factory overclocked GTX 1080 cards out right now, A...
Phenomenal 4K gaming performance, RGB LED lighting effects, Low noise and power consumption, Second HDMI port for VR headsets, Virtually futureproof
Large and heavy
This is what luxury feels like, and it's glorious. Nvidia has a triumph on its hands with the GeForce GTX 1080. Playing the latest games on a 27-inch 4K monitor at the highest quality settings without stutters is an absolute joy. There are still a few tit...
There's no doubt about the fact that the 1080 is an impressive card. Asus have done their part in amping up an already good card and we applaud them for that. However, it's the price that brings this monster down.Rs 64,000 (not including taxes) is a r...

Blazing performance, Aura Lighting, Pascal Architecture, 8 GB DDR5X Memory, Quiet Direct CU II Wingblade fans, Dual HDMI
Overpriced, Plastic Top
As a card, the 1080 is fantastic, flawless and perfect for your gaming needs. With so much power packed, this card is futureproof, lasting you atleast for the next two or three generation of GPU's, as long as the games scale up easily. The 1080 is exactly...
