Pros: I got this card as an upgrade to my EVGA 580GTX, which has finally shown it cannot keep up with the latest and greatest games. I saw this for the refurb price and saving $140 is a no-brainer! I popped this in, grabbed NVidia's latest drivers, clean install and haven't looked back! Everythiing went without the slightest hitch. This card has given me no problems yet, it runs cool, is extremely fast and quiet. It eats up fallout 4 for breakfast, I love it!

Cons: Nothing serious so far. Minor gripe: On booting PC fans get loud for a few seconds but that's normal for this cooler.

Overall Review: I've never bought a refurb Vid Card before; I hope this experience continues to be as good as it is so far

Pros: 1481MHz Core, 7.8GHz Memory, Stable Gaming OC!!! I know not everyone is going to have the same experience with a refurb, but I lucked out this time. OC'd I am getting over 120FPS @ 1080P Maxed Setting in Star Wars Battlefront @75C. 45FPS @ 4K with no AA.

Cons: Kind of sucks not knowing why the card was sent back in the first place.

Pros: -Fast -refurb price was less than full retail -no problems so far

Cons: None

Overall Review: I have owned the card 6 weeks.

Pros: GTX980 for 385$, so far so good I have put this card thru every benchmark I have and no probelms thus far. I am also running it on a 4k Samsung monitor.

Cons: Slight problem installing drivers not sure the cause but got it sorted out.

Overall Review: Low ownership time will post back in two months with an update.

Pros: The pro's of this card are 100% -I got the card on time -It was brand new and still factory sealed -Fast out of the box -User Friendly -Much higher benchmarks achieved then old gpu

Cons: I have non

Overall Review: my build is, -Corrsair 750w psu -Msi 970 gaming mb -4x8gb 1866hz ddr3 hyper x ram -amd 8350 fx 4.4/ Evo 212 with push pull config -Had a gtx 960 4gb 128-bit Zotac gpu I sold my 960 to my roommate and bought this card, in Heaven dx11 benchmark at highest settings my 960 scored around 8000, and hit a mim of 40 fps and a max of 120fps while Highly OC, which was awesome, But... the 980, with the same benchmark, with stock settings, i was able to get a score of around 12000 and a min of 90 fps and a max of 220 fps, for that in particular benchmark, and at 1080p. super happy.

Pros: They were cheap since they were refurbished and I've been plugging away with them since. No problems. Easy installation. Easy way to keep drivers updated with GeForce Experience. I play all my games on Ultra.

Cons: N/A - they're working good.

Pros: -Should be a fast card -hefty discount being a refurb

Cons: -one fan ran dangerously loud -other fan was stagnant (would glitch every couple of seconds) -fan software showed speeds at zero -rma took 2 and a half weeks and they only had refund available so I waited for nothing.

Overall Review: had high hopes. I'd buy again if i could get a working card instead of a headache

Pros: Plays all games on my 2560x1080 monitor at 60 FPS. No slowdowns in gameplay Runs CAD software well Linux friendly Fans do not run until GPU reaches a cartain temperature. Overclocks very well

Cons: Does not work well with IOMMU PCI-E passthrough to virtual machines. If you intend to do this, get an AMD card. Loud when under load Does not work well with Linux Nouveau driver. If you intend to use this card under Linux, you have to use the proprietary drivers.

Overall Review: If you have no intention of using this card under virtual machines, I highly recommend this card. It works great at 1080p. If you want 1440p or 4k, I might recommend the GTX 980 ti or R9 Fury X instead.
