Zotac GeForce GTX 980 Ti AMP! Extreme Review 5

Posted by: Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 07/02/2015 07:50 AM [ 44 comment(s) ]

In this review we benchmark the new Zotac GeForce GTX 980 Ti AMP! (Extreme edition), the product is a beast man, HUGE awesome cooling (literally) and it comes factory overclocked towards an entirely new level. Combined with the default goodness the GTX 980 Ti has to offer like the 6 GB graphics memory this product just oozes unadulterated raw gaming performance.

no doubt the performance is quite rightly there but this thing is built like a freaking tank! too big and bulky for my taste but cannot deny the performance. seems like Zotac loves to go all out and usually BIG. but it also seems out of all the board partners, their cards tend to be a bit cheaper (price) than others.

Your point is not a very good one.

Not everyone wants big flashing lights on their hardware, many people do not like it. There's nothing about the appearance of this card that is cheap, it's a solid well designed piece of equipment that performs extremely well. If I was buying a 980ti right now, I'd probably buy this.

your gonna need new psu aswell how big that card is look like it can suck some juice , and be noisy with 3 small fans

The cards physical size doesn't change the fact the power draw is similar to every other 980ti out there.

As for PSU's, no I wouldn't need to buy another one. I own more than what's listed in my specs.

Sound is not an issue, when I'm gaming I'm wearing headphones.

very nice review, but wow what an impressive PCB, more than matrix card from asus.

I honestly don't see how it could possible have a better PCB than the ASUS ones (980Ti STRIX) https://www.asus.com/Graphics-Cards/STRIXGTX980TIDC3OC6GD5GAMING/
It looks kinda like the Gigabyte one and nothing more. ASUS's 12+2 Phase seems clearly superior and the way they made the PCB is also interesting (check out the link above).

I'm just hoping its about as silent as the MSI one which was quite impressive with just 39dB (I think it was 39 !?).

PS: I think that for regular people who are gonna use it on air it does not rly matter how overbuilt it is : )) ... probably not even for the watercooling people ... just the EXTREME ones with bellow zero cooling stuff ...
