Review: Gigabyte GeForce GTX 980 Ti G1 Gaming SOC Edition
We review the custom GeForce GTX 980 Ti, the G1 Gaming SOC edition from Gigabyte. This graphics card is a power-house, where the reference cards run at 1 GHz, in Gigabyte's OC modus, this puppy will default towards 1241 MHz on the base-clock and 1291 MHz on the Boost clock. Meanwhile the 600 Watt Windforce cooler makes sure that the fans remain disabled when the GPU is under a set temperature or at light load. On top of it you will spot a multi-color Illuminated LED LOGO design, you can pick the color of your preference.
Check out the full review right here.

Gigabyte has nice cooling solutions but both my previous 780 and my current 980 suck when it comes to OC. What I find maddening is that I'm able to get up to around +260 on the core without crashing outright or any artifacting but the driver inevitably crashes at random.

I'm not sure if that score is stock. I have the identical card and my stock is 8.5K or there about. Rig is 4.5GHz 5960X, 3200 mem, 4G uncore, latest driver etc. I'll re-check but that could be the overclocked score, posted by mistake.
It is a beastly card though that's for sure. Wiped the floor with the TitanX
Well, according to the review, it's the "out the box" score for the 980ti G1. So I'm going to assume that's what it is.
Nice card! This is what we've all been waiting for from big daddy Keplers.
Remember to get these Gigabytes in the first batch before they revise the board specs down!
Looks nice indeed, but Gigabyte won't see a penny from me, 100% broken products from my experience. Maybe I'm just unlucky though, others seem to have much better luck when it comes to their products.

I've had the same experience which is a shame because I don't mind those Windforce coolers.
If I wasn't in such a rush to grab a 980Ti I would have waited for the MSI aftermarket cards.
