Powerhouse card

GIGABYTE GeForce GTX 980Ti 6GB G1 Gaming OC Edition
GIGABYTE GeForce GTX 980Ti 6GB G1 Gaming OC Edition

Pros: - A beast out of the box; runs my games smooth as butter at 1440p - Pretty quiet; no coil whine and can barely hear the fans when they turn on - Stays cool as a cucumber even under load; have yet to see it break 70c while gaming - Easily overclocks to 1350mhz with touching the voltages - Sturdy, well built and gorgeous looking card

Cons: - Relatively low ASIC value at 68.6% - OC Guru not very helpful

Overall Review: Awesome card out of the box! Probably a overkill for 1080p but seems to be perfect for 1440p. The Witcher 3 never looked so beautiful. I was concerned about coil whine after reading so many horror story reviews about it but thankfully mine has none and the fans are pretty quiet too even under heavy load. Card runs super cool too, in game I've never seen the temps go over 69c. This card is a great improvement over my 970 FTW and I'm overall happy with my purchase.

Good series ending on bad note...

NVIDIA GIFT Batman: Arkham Knight
NVIDIA GIFT Batman: Arkham Knight

Pros: - It's free - It's Batman

Cons: - Framerate cap?? - Minimum tweaking options - Overall poorly optimized for PC

Overall Review: Huge let down. Will take some significant patching for me to return to this one.

Excellence!

GIGABYTE GeForce GTX 1080 G1 Gaming GV-N1080G1 GAMING-8GD Video Card
GIGABYTE GeForce GTX 1080 G1 Gaming GV-N1080G1 GAMING-8GD Video Card

Pros: Runs cool (haven't seen it get higher than 69 degrees under load). Low noise almost silent. Performs superbly at 3440x1440 resolution. Fast - boosted to 2025 out of the box!

Cons: None at this point. Maybe the fact that it was so difficult to get a hold of. ;-)

Overall Review: Included software never installed for me.
