Excellent performance, Great port selection, Works quietly, Low power draw, Competitively priced
Demanding games still aren't smooth at 4K, AMD-based competitors offer better bang for your buck, Doesn't set new standards for high-end performance
The GTX 980’s name might lead buyers to think that it provides a large performance improvement over the outgoing GTX 700 series flagships. That’s not the case. As our test resul...
Abstract: The GM204 GPU (which lies behind both the 980 and the 970) is the culmination of a process that started many months ago, with the GTX 750 Ti. As an overall package, we didn't really rate the 750 Ti. While it generated a very impressive amount of speed giv...

Class leading Performance, Power efficient, Excellent features, Great overclocking potential
Physical SLI bridge remains, Can get hot when overclocked (reference design)
What makes a good graphics card is primarily its speed. The GTX 980 has that base covered, of that there can be no doubt. It took apart the overclocked AMD R9-290X with relative ease. So much so we had to do a double take when looking at the results. Obvi...

great minimum frame rate, mid, range pricing, top, notch performance, superb overclocking, lower power consumption
Still using 28nm process.
There is far more of a swagger within Nvidia these days and the combined boost of having its Tegra TK1 SoC in the next Nexus device as well as the serious efficiency and performance of its new Maxwell-based GPUs are surely the catalysts. And it's right t...
Great performance, Very impressive energy efficiency, Excellent architecture, Overclocks well, Better than the GTX 780 Ti in every regard
Not the fullfat, performance Maxwell, Won't manage 60fps at highquality 4K, No Nvidiabundled games
Nvidia's introduction of the GTX 980 and GTX 970 graphics cards redefines the high-end GeForce positioning for the next few months. Based on the premise that energy efficiency and die space are just as important as in-game frames per second, the new GPUs...
Without doubt, the GTX 980 is a great graphics card. By and large, it is unmatched in the performance arena, and there's certainly nothing that even comes close to it at this end of the market when you look at performance per watt. It is also very well cr...
Benchmarking three or four new high-end cards always makes for some pretty special results in synthetic benchmarks like 3DMark. This time it's even more special though. Previous high-end cards could be used in 3-way and 4-way SLI, but that never resulte...
Two new GPUs in the new Maxwell line are revealed today - the flagship GTX 980, retailing for £430/€452/$549 and its little brother, the GTX 970 weighing it at a much more competitive £259/€270/$329. The pricing on the top-end card effectively sees it rep...

Unrivaled power efficiency, Efficient performance, High quality construction: now includes a backplate, Cheaper than its predecessor's launch price, Improved display output options, Huge overclocking potential, Video memory upgrade – now 4GB, Improved com
Stock cooler thermal throttles a little, Loses a bit of ground at higher resolutions,
Pricing (accurate at the time of writing)The Nvidia GTX 980 has an MSRP of $549.99. Warranty services will vary depending on which graphics card brand you buy from. UK pricing is from £429.99.Summary There's no question that Nvidia's GTX 980 is a worthy s...
