EVGA Unveils the GeForce GTX 980 Ti Classified ACX 2.0+
EVGA unveiled the GeForce GTX 980 Ti Classified ACX 2.0+ graphics card (model: 06G-P4-4998). Positioned a notch below the GTX 980 Ti Classified Kingpin Edition, and one above the GTX 980 Ti Hybrid, the card will be EVGA's fastest GTX 980 Ti, until the Classified Kingpin Edition starts selling. It offers factory overclocked speeds of 1190 MHz core, 1291 MHz GPU Boost, and an untouched 7.00 GHz memory; compared to reference clocks of 1000 MHz core and 1076 MHz GPU Boost.
The card features EVGA's biggest and tallest ACX 2.0+ air-cooling solution, which is 2 slots thick, but a good inch and a half taller than the reference card. It features a large dual fin-stack heatsink that's ventilated by a pair of large fans. The PCB features a 14+3 phase VRM that draws power from a pair of 8-pin PCIe power connectors. The card comes with a pre-installed back-plate. Display outputs include three DisplayPort 1.2 and one each of HDMI 2.0 and dual-link DVI connectors. Other features include dual-BIOS and EVGA EV-Bot module support. Available now, the EVGA GeForce GTX 980 Ti Classified ACX 2.0+ is priced at US $700.

AIB 980Ti is already running ~15% faster, pretty decent increase. Full warranty, no effort needed, and still capable to be OCed decently. It's more expensive but what's $20-50 if you're spending on $650 card.
There's no AIB Fury X and as far as I know it's a poorer overclocker.
I decide to go with EVGA because higher clock in past.
Faster card than this are
Zotac AMP Extreme 1250MHz
Inno3D AIO System 1200MHz
ASUS Strix 1220MHz
Galaxy HOF Exteme will be faster 100% only is question how much.
And still GIGABYTE, MSI and ASUS are not launched their fastest models, Lightening, Matrix,...
Only one comparison... ASUS Strix GTX980Ti is faster than EVGA Superclocked 12%. This will be slowest EVGA series ever launched because and Hybrid model is 1140MHz and Inno3D Hybrid is 1200MHz. If someone think such difference is small I can say that such difference decide who is faster TITAN X or overclocked GTX980Ti.
I would not be surprise if Galaxy launch card with 1250-1300MHz base clock.
