Question 1

Does this have the new Pascal architecture?  Other 1080 cards advertise this directly but I see no indication for this particular 1080 card.  Does anyone know for sure?

Accepted Answer

GP104 = Pascal, GPU-Z says it's a GP104, yes, it's very much a 1080GTX. It's pretty much a 'cheaper' founders edition. But I was tired of waiting for evga, so I bought it, it works as advertised, and is immensely helpful in VR(Vive)

Question 2

If i was going to run two of these in SLI what would be a good minimum power supply requirement?

Accepted Answer

A good minimum would be a PSU rated for 750w. A typical system with two of these cards, an i7, a good bit of memory, and some hard drives will probably have a max continuous TDP of around 550 - 600w. You should look for descriptions of PSUs that say something like 700w continuous at 40*C, or shoot for the 750-850w 'max' range.

Question 3

Does this card have the same vapor chamber cooler as the founders edition? if not, what kind is it?

Accepted Answer

I'm not absolutely certain, but I don't think so. If I remember correctly, it uses a blower cooler that draws in air from within the computer system and blows it out  the back. I hope that helps.

Question 4

Can I SLI this with the FE?

Accepted Answer

Yes, SLI is chip dependent, not cooler dependent. Any edition of a GTX 1080 (not GTX 1080Ti) can SLI with any other GTX 1080. The only thing you have to keep in mind is that SLI will set both cards to the specs of the worst card. So for example, if you had a 10GB version and an 8GB version, in SLI, you would still only be able to use 8GB, even though one card has more.

Question 5

Is the logo RGB?

Accepted Answer

The unit has a white LED backlit ASUS logo that can be customized.

Question 6

How hot does the Turbo blower style get while running games @ 1440?
Thanks

Accepted Answer

Not paying much attention to the heat but overall the 1080's barely make any noise or heat even when playing at 4K.   It seems to easily handle higher resolutions (4K/1440p) without strain.

Question 7

Is it possible to use a waterblock with this graphics card for cooling?

Accepted Answer

There are compatibility issues with certain water cooling options for this graphics card.

Question 8

How does the VGA ASUS | TURBO-GTX1080-8G R perform in terms of temperature control?

Accepted Answer

Some users have reported high operating temperatures as a disadvantage of the ASUS GeForce GTX 1080 TURBO-GTX1080-8G. It is noted for its loud fan noise and limited packaging, which might contribute to its temperature control performance. Overall, while it is a powerful option, there are potential issues related to its temperature management.

Question 9

Can I use this for asus g20 aj? And if I can, do I need to got new jumper? Since mine is gtx760 right now and I only have jumper for gtx760

Accepted Answer

Junk the g20aj. Buy a real desktop. Sorry to be blunt.
