Product Showcase

The Zotac GeForce GTX 980 Ti AMP! Extreme is almost 12 Inches in length which is roughly 30 cm so please make sure it can actually fit in your chassis. 

 

At the top of the card you can see the two 8-pin power headers. That's 150 each + 75 Watt over the PCI-Express slot = 375 Watt. Plenty for a card rated at 250 Watt we feel. And yes, there is overclocking potential left.

As you can see the backplate protects the backside, it has plenty of meshes and openings so this actually is a well designed backplate. It is also roughly 1mm away from the PCB for the backside to be able to breathe. I would have preferred the GPU spot to have some vent holes though.
 

Overall a nice enough looking card, high performance, good cooling and plenty of display outputs. You can game with up to 4 monitors at any one time using a combination of the various display outputs. Recommended is to use the Display-Ports for three displays for best compatibility. If the card is in IDLE (desktop mode) the fans will stop spinning and it becomes an passively cooled product. Up-to roughly 60 degrees C the card remains passively cooled.
