The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 is a high-end graphics card for Full HD and 4K gaming at high settings. Based on the state-of-the-art Pascal architecture, the GeForce GTX 1080 is built using 16nm FinFET technology and operates at unprecedented high clock speed. Coupled with the latest generation GDDR5X high bandwidth memory, the GeForce GTX 1080 sets a new benchmark for single-GPU video card - you'll enjoy awe-inspiring performance, power efficiency, and gaming experiences. It also delivers innovative new gaming technologies and breakthrough VR experiences, making it the ultimate gaming platform. Plus, with an arresting design and quality materials, the GeForce GTX 1080 grabs everyone’s attention whether in your hand or in the computer chassis.
The GIGABYTE GeForce GTX 1080 D5X 8G is overclocked to 1771/1623 MHz Boost/Base frequency in OC mode (1683/1506 for the reference card) to extract more power. This card is efficiently and quietly cooled by the WINDFORCE 3X cooling system, and three large fans stops spinning at low load level or idle status. And the Ultra Durable components guarantee unbeatable reliability and stability even you are pushing the card to the limit.
WINDFORCE 3X Cooling System
The WINDFORCE 3X cooling system features 3 pure copper composite heat-pipes, special fin architecture, unique blade fan design, together delivering an effective heat dissipation capacity for higher performance at lower temperatures.
Unique Blade Fan Design
The airflow is spilt by the triangle fan edge, and guided smoothly through the 3D stripe curve on the fan surface, effectively enhancing the air flow.
3D Active Fan
The semi-passive fans will remain off when the GPU is under a set loading or temperature for low power gaming.
Composite Heat-Pipes
The composite heat-pipes combines both thermal conductivity and phase transition for efficiently managing the transfer of heat between two solid interfaces which increases 29% of cooling capacity.
Heat Pipe Direct Touch
The pure copper heat pipes are shaped to maximize the direct contact area to the GPU.
Outlook
Stylish Metal Back Plate
The metal back plate offers rigidity and protection to the structure, while adding a sleek, clean look to the product.
Performance
One-click Super overclocking
With a simple click on AORUS Graphics engine utility, gamers can easily tune the card to meet their various gaming requirements without any overclocking knowledge, while saving the hassle of manual
Durability
Smart Power LED indicators
Be alert when PCI-E voltage is unstable with the smart power LED indicator.
Engineered with the highest-grade chokes and capacitors, this graphic card delivers outstanding performance and durable system lifespan.
Compared to founders edition, the 8+2 power phases on the card make the MOSFET working at a lower temperature and provide more stable voltage output.
Intuitive Utility
AORUS Graphics Engine
The cutting edge intuitive interface allows you to tune the clock speeds, voltage, fan performance, and power target in real-time according to your own gaming requirement.

Pros: - Looks good in the case - Triple fans are quiet (more on this below) - A decent value if purchased on sale
Cons: - When I first powered on my machine after installing this board the center fan wouldn't spin. I poked at it and it started to turn but made loud buzzing noise. Upon further investigation it appears there is a cable running under the plastic housing that was rubbing up against the fan blades. I took pushed the cable down to give the fan blades clearance and that fixed the problem. If you do buy this card you might want to inspect all the fans and make sure there isn't a similar problem before installing it into your build.
