GTX 980/970 Club

BUCK NASTY · Feb 5, 2015

Congrats on the card @Mydog . Maxwell is a hell of a chip. That single card would almost produce as many F@H points as your server used to and use 1/2 the wattage. :rockout:

Yeah, you're in for a major upgrade. According to Anandtech that GTX 970 is almost 250% faster than a HD 5870. Enjoy.

Coming from an Asus DCu II TOP GTX 560 Ti, now I have a Gigabyte GTX 970 G1 Gaming xD

Anybody having problems with the driver 347.25 + GFExperience 2.2.2, not detecting my card under LED Visualizer and I can't change the Color range to Full, it always remain in Limited in the control panel (using HDMI) as cable source.

Never mind fixed it with a clean install of the new drivers, although GFExperience 2.2.2 still not recognizing my GTX 970 under LED visualizer, I guess I'll just uninstall this and use the control panel to edit game optimizations

Still a beast of a card tho

I just picked up a couple of EVGA GTX 980 SC ACX 2.0 cards. This was an upgrade from 2 EVGA GTX 580 Classified's. And the experience has been magnificently awesome. Very happy with the purchase and performance of these cards so far.I'm running a X79 Dark, 3930K @4.8Ghz under water, 32GB of HyperX, 256GB Intel SSD, 2 WD 1TB hdd's,1100w Cooler Master PSU, all on a test bench. I am thinking that gaming wise . I'm good to go for a good while. Looking forward to playing around with these cards. And figuring out the idiosyncrasies of overclocking these beasts. Just wanted to drop in here and say wassup!

BiggieShady · Feb 17, 2015

Oh there's a club ... count me in, gimped GTX 970 is awesome and the speed boost is noticeable even coming from GTX 770

my 1st nVidia after 14 years of Radeon only
in the last few months AMD has disappointed me in a way I can't even describe in words - 3 problematic Radeons (2 defective out of the box) :mad:

Sli G1 980s for me. Rockin 4k like a boss!

MSI GTX 980 Twin Frozr Gaming 4G here

Got it overclocked to 1444Mhz core, 7.5Ghz memory clock. Stays at 68C under load, feel like I have more headroom to push this card.
Running 11,600ish in firestrike currently, will post screen shot later

I haven't had a Nvidia since I went to the ATI Rage3d PCI card back in the day. Well I'm now a proud owner of two MSI 970's and OH MY GOD these kick ass.
