The editors didn't like

  • Abstract:  We have reviewed a lot of GeForce GTX 970 and GTX 980 cards over the last few months. We thought it was time to take score and look at what card is actually the best one to pick up. Both the GeForce GTX 980 as well as (maybe even more so) the GTX 970 h...

  • It's been an interesting review to say the least and I have had a fair amount of time to spend with the latest in a long potential line of Strix products left to come from ASUS.  The GTX 980 is a powerful card and no-one can deny it; this means pure perfo...

  • In the end, what's left is another highly desirable but very expensive graphics card – we suspect this description will apply to the majority of GTX 980 partner cards. Gigabyte's card from last week is faster out of the box, but also noisier (though not l...

  • ASUS' GeForce GTX 980 Strix is a tad faster than GTX 980 boards that are based on the reference design. This isn't the only benefit of this product, however, as the Strix also turns out to be substantially cooler and quieter. As a result, we're definite...

  • For a good number of years enthusiast graphics card arrived with massive power requirements, deafening coolers and temperature limits in line with your average nuclear reactor. Nvidia's GTX 900-series signals a design shift in high-end graphics as while ...

  • the reference GTX980 is excellent and is likely to be £80 less, still need two of them for smooth 4k gaming.
  • The Asus Strix range of graphics cards have left a positive impression with us so far. This is the fourth Strix card we have reviewed and it is the most powerful of them all. The Asus GTX980 Strix OC is actually one of the finest video cards we have ever ...

  • ASUS' brand new GeForce GTX 980 STRIX OC Edition is a really nice piece of hardware This custom card is not only quicker than a reference Geforce GTX 980 but it also features ASUS' latest version of the STRIX cooler, which makes it silent under load cond...

  • Coming into this review I had fairly high expectations because all of the Strix cards I have tested have performed very well. Add to that the numbers I saw with our original GTX 980 review I expected the GTX 980 Strix to impress and impress it did. As e...
