great performance on stock settings



the oc results are very disappointing though, as I've seen FE clock higher than that

They locked the thread for a reason. It isn't news anymore. Wonder when they close this one.

It's almost as if they are all cut from the same cloth!

maybe they won't as it would save a lot of people's money
the card is rad and all but if you don't care about the looks then get the cheapest 1080 and oc, you're more than likely to hit the performance level of an oc'd $700+ "extreme" card

update: well, this card is actually priced at 3380zł, while msrp is 3600zł. so the $ price would be around $650-670

Zotac makes amazing but very underrated cards. Probably my next GPU is a highly clocked Zotac GPU. My friend bought a Zotac 980 Ti Omega and it clocks much better than my MSI card. Was able to acheive 1550 MHz gaming stable on air.

believe me, it's luck of the draw.

I got a MSI 980Ti 6G, clocked to 1510MHz on stock voltage, no coil whine,quiet as church mouse
ppl on 980Ti thread got Zotac 980Ti Extreme cause it ran +1400mhz out of the box thinking it would oc higher, they were surprised they could not get past 1450mhz with voltage maxed out. Reported outrageous coil whine too.

This is what I'd like ppl to observe about this article, not only the fact it's the highest clcoked 1080. It's got NOTHING to do with max oc you'll be able to get. Same as in Palit Gamerock review. It comes clocked at 2GHz too, pretty sick. But they managed 25MHz oc on it.

Very true.

I find it unbelievable that a 1080 with two fans on it is suddenly $750 in store.

The prices are so abusive, I will be waiting longer it seems to get a new GPU.

Basically because they can, that is what happens when there is no competition probably why they rushed to get them out this early.

I am waiting on 480 real user oc benchmarks, and crossfire results.

1080 has been sold like it is high end, and soon so many people will be angry when 1080ti comes.

And how much will 1080 ti be? If normal card is $700, ti will be $1000 !!

It is madness.

I just saw that Zotac actually has boost clock on 1080 AMP! Extreme specified 10MHz lower than on Asus Strix, yet in the review the card boosts 60MHz higher than Strix. With Turbo Boost 3.0 I suspect they might have cherry picked the GPU they sent for reviews.

Going by that logic, many 480 owners will be angry when Vega comes too.

But anyone who doesn't have their head buried in the sand knows that new products replace old all the time.

It's nonsensical to be upset about it.
