Gigabyte GeForce GTX 960 G1 Gaming 4GB review





In this review we check out the 4GB version of the Gigabyte G1 Gaming GeForce GTX 960. The GTX 960 is the mainstream product that we figured has too little memory, will this 4GB version resolve our concerns ? We do know that this card is among the most silent we have ever tested, it also has great looks including a proper back-plate. The G1 Gaming comes factory overclocked, has a WindForce X3 based cooler and is a great overclocker as well. Let's check it out, shall we?

While it offers the most excellent cooling performance (FLIR imaging FTW!) I think Windforce 3X is an overkill. It doesn't even fit in most budget gaming cases where 960 is most likely to appear. They're just getting lazy, slapping this huge thing on a PCB that can otherwise be made to fit into mITX.

How does the GTX 960 compare to my GTX 660 Ti? Or would there be no logical reason to get an GTX 960?

Great review as always!
I was wondering if you could get your hands on 2 of those 960 4GB to try higher resolution where in theory memory matters more.
Was going to suggest the same thing.
These in SLI might be enough to actually show an actual advantage in 4GB configuration vs the 2GB version, and at a lower price point than most GTX980's.
The low memory bandwidth will of course be a handicap, but would be interesting to see by just how much.
