MSI NVIDIA GeForce GTX980 V317-008R gaming graphics card (PCI-e, 4GB GDDR5 HDMI, DVI, DisplayPort, 1 GPU) (Accessories)

Customer Review

I bought this model GTX980, because I have the GTX 970 returned from another dealer because nVidia incorrect product information (material defects). I wanted to at least no performance limitations when using more than 3.5 GB of graphics memory etc etc.

For me there was no other alternative but again nVidia to buy because the simply the best maps establish what speed and low volume development terms at the moment. In addition, I have been accustomed to the benefits of Shadowplay (via GeForce Experience) that you can record by pressing a video sequence of the highest quality and a compact format to be able to control with a few other nice features, if the card constantly mitbufffert, so that you have the last xx minutes in the box, you should have forgotten in time to press for inclusion.

I have now bought the card from Amazon, because who responded by vornerherein correctly on the defects and their customers have offered discounts and redemption for the GTX 970 and offer the product still at a good price, what was important to me in view of the higher costs.

We chose this model because it lt. PC Games Hardware is the quietest card. I looked at the videos at different Internet product testing and whether who now measured ultra correct or not, the built-up on the map fan seemed very quiet compared to other cards and the noise came in front of a not unpleasant. Spulenfiepen or similar in load I could not even watch. With Star Citizen graphics card is utilized in the highest quality level to almost 100% (GPU load) and Memory utilization is already at 3.5GB or even slightly above. For this I must add that I 4x DSR have set, which means that the card internally with 4x higher resolution computer and then "runterrendert".

Especially important is the Zero Fan feature. Where this card is supposed to have as a unique selling point (not tested) that the two fans can be controlled differently by the firmware, depending on whether the temperature in the range of GPU or the voltage converter requires cooling. Unlike the GTX 970 the fans are only going down fully again when the temperature returns to 50 ° C, the fan will be booted but then again until 60 ° C. In the GTX 970 that was slightly different, even when reaching 59 ° were shut down the fan. You could now hinbiegen again with MSI Afterburner, but this application requires admin rights, I have withdrawn for security reasons in my user because mine is too annoying to have to enter the password every time when the Afterburner highly starts. But since I do not hear the card also at 1000 rev / min (I have an insulated casing of Fractal Design - Define XL R2 FD-CA-DEF-XL-R2-BL), but since I do not then also matter. The computer must be very quiet for me in home studio and because the fans are then yes in 2D mode off).

I have toyed with the EVGA version, mainly because the in some games was a tock faster, but the EVGA had by all cards, the highest temperature on the boards back (90 ° C), which seems quite high as compared to throughout the competition, that's why I prefer because of distance taken. EVGA might have still had the second advantage is that you somehow have an extended warranty could conclude, I think 3 or even 5 years (.kA at what cost). But I think in 3 years, we already speak of cards with 8GB of RAM, so I let so no trouble my head. And since I do not over clocke the card will not be stressed unduly.

Performance example: in the super horny Multi Player PVP space simulation names "Star Conflict" I reach with this card FPS rates from 350 to over 400, which is just great and the even with 4x DSR (ie with internal calculations with 4 -fold resolution and then down to the rendering 1920x1080).

All in all, a strong buy recommendation from me.
