NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Computer Graphics Cards

There is no doubt that both the game performance and the cooling performance of this card is excellent. Out of the box it boosts to 2025Mhz with no tweaks. There are some issues with the cooling solution, however. The 120mm radiator fan is not temperature controlled, and although it is very effective, it is also loud. I swapped mine for a quieter fan with manual control, which only marginally hurt temps. The on-card fan is not too loud, but has an annoying resonance at its idle speed, which is 58%. Just raising it to 60% gets rid of this sound. The AIO pump also causes vibration which transfers to your case through the card mount and surprisingly the radiator as well. This vibration also causes noise resonance. I had to do a number of things to dampen it to avoid annoying sound from that as well. Overall, I am happy with the card, but if you are building a quiet PC please be aware of the noise issues should you get one yourself.

I recently purchased this graphics card because my CPU (i7-4790k) can't handle the newer 30 series cards. Not to mention it is impossible to get those cards at the moment. I ended up buying this since the 1080 was made at a similar time to my i7-4790k so compatibility wise it was a great choice. The product arrived pretty early (4 days) and it was protected with foam and was in an anti-static bag. The 1080 was very clean and didn't have noticeable scuffs on it. After stress testing it, it ran a little hot (84 degree high on full load with furmark) but that was expected since the FE doesn't have a very good cooling system and running furmark for 30 min is supposed to push it to its limits. During gaming (warzone, fortnite, etc.) it reached around 78 degree highs which is perfectly adequate. Overall, I highly recommend purchased any old/used pc components from this place.

This is my second Nvidia GTX 1080 FE card and has doubled my graphics performance at a reduced price than upgrading to a newer card. This card has held its price from launch day and is well sought after. It is a well designed card and very robust with a fantastic all metal design . NVidia software and support for this card is excellent. A true gamers card. It runs fairly quiet and can be tweaked via the software to run as you require. This was a great buy.

The EVGA NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 FTW is one of the highest performing NVIDIA 1080 graphics cards. However, it is not the best. The clock speeds are among the highest for 1080s, but it tends to overheat more than other 1080s and it also requires two 8 pin VGA connectors. If you have a high voltage PSU with extra VGA connectors then this will be a good buy, otherwise I would go for the MSI NVIDIA GeForce 1080 GAMING Twin Frzr VI.

This card easily perform its best all the time and with gpu boost 3.0 it will clock higher than majority of other cards without you having to do anything. The included fan on the radiator cant be controlled but a simple replacement makes this unit silent. Also be sure to have the fan on the card run faster than its lowest speed or else you get this hum. With a little fan tweaking this is possible the greatest purchase ive made.

The GTX 1080 is sill a very relevant card and crashes all games up to 2K screen resolution. Over 80% of people are still using 1080p screens, so yeah. The FE version is a perfect candidate for water cooling, so if you get one of those, definitely slap a water block and it will boost over 2ghz.

Good "budget" GPU for nice gaming rig. Still cutting edge enough to satisfy most FPS-heads. Plus VR-ready is a nice plus for the Oculus quest aficionados. The current lack of silicon and silicon scalpers keep prices a mite high , but still a good deal if you can get it for less than $300.00

Say goodbye to upgrading the video card for a few years. The 1080ti has 3gb more DDR, but $200 more in cost. Not worth it, imo. EVGA quality, very quite cooling system (I record live audio for my vids, so this is very important). No need to o/c, very fast in default mode.

This card is a massive upgrade from my old card. After doing some research i picked this card over nvidias founders 1080. I would highly recommend this card. The only down side to any card right now is the availability and the prices when you do find one is well over msrp.

The price was right. This GTX 1080 was an upgrade for my son's computer replacing his 3GB gpu. It works much better and runs games with higher settings.

Bought this to replace a gigabyte 1070 G1. I took advantage of the price hike in GPUs cuz of the Crypto Miners and sold mine for what i payed for it a year ago. Because of the good deal on this i only had to pay a little more then what i sold my 1070 for. The fan is way to loud at 30%. I'm not sure if i got a bad unit or what. I had to move one of my Noctua fans and use it in pull configuration. I manually set the GPU fan to stay at 10% until 90c. Then set the Noctua to 90% all the time. Way quieter now but for a high end GPU that a lot of extra work to get it as quite as my 1070 air cooled GPU. Other than that the card is powerful and power efficient. Doing 4k HDR 60Hz no problem. Because of how loud the original fan is and the work i did to quite it. 3 stars. I really thought about returning it.

Only a few days after receiving my card it started to emit a loud noise. After taking a look at it, I noticed that one fan was spinning much slower than the other. The problem kept getting worst until I realized that the fan would no longer spin at all. After taking it apart and attempting to lubricate the fan, I noticed just how poorly the fan was made, cheap plastic, an under-powered motor, and few blades were its design. Due to the cheap construction of the fan I couldn't get the fan working as it should causing the thermals to stay at max anytime I was gaming. In the end, I had to remove the fan entirely as it was just a useless piece of plastic. Removing said fan actually made the thermals slightly better. THIS IS RIDICULOUS the card is an HP, although you couldn't tell by looking at it, so stay away from any component of this brand.

I play Second Life, which has lots of graphics and lag. The mini didn't seem to perform as well as the MSI GTX 1080 full size. Which I have in another computer because it wouldn't fit in my smaller case Dell XPS 8930. There seems more lag with mini.
