    Runs very hot - otherwise perfect

    Make sure you have good cooling in your case, because these run HOT (I have 2 of them). You almost every current game at 1440p with all of the settings and over 100 fps (and dominates 1080p). It's great. I wouldn't spend more on a card unless you're absolutely all about 4K, and even then, I wouldn't spend too much because even the 2080 and 2080Ti can't do enough FPS at 4K to justify the cost. I think this is also better than the Nvidia Founders Edition being sold at Best Buy because it doesn't use a blower style card. This card is the sweet spot on price performance until 2019 or 2020!

    Got this for gaming and run super smooth, no lagging. Tried it for bitcoin mining, overclocked it and it stays cool and very quiet. Overall, great card.

    This car is not only beautiful but a powerhouse. I bought it a few weeks ago and couldn’t be happier with my purchase. It was a big upgrade even from the previous generation 980. EVGA is incredible as always.

    Finally took the plunge and decided to upgrade to a GTX 1080. I spent about 2 months trying to decide which version to purchase. So far I've only tested it on a few games. R6: Siege runs at 140-170 FPS, Doom at 140-170, PUBG 130-140 all on ultra settings. Still gotta test it out on more demanding games like Rise of the Tomb Raider and the Witcher 3.

    I waited a long time before purchasing this due to the bit coin craze, but prices came down (as all things are cyclical) due to the bit coin craze dropping off and the new Nvidia card that has come out - right after I bought mine. I love this card. Excellent graphics, fast response and loads, no drags or lapses. It makes all computing clearer and a better experience overall. I'd recommend it for anyone who hasn't upgraded yet.

    I bought this graphics card a few days ago, and so far I’m extremely happy. I upgraded from MSI 980 ti to this one, only because today’s game are updating and my card was beginning to heat up after a long day gaming. What a great decision! This card is cool and quite. I love it. Great buy.

    Runs anything in 1080p flawlessly at 144 hz. Once you start to go above 2K resolution you’re looking at closer to 60 FPS which is fine for gaming honestly. Runs Fortnite in 2K maxed at around 100-120 FPS for reference. Great GPU. Definitely worth the money.

    This video card replaces my old GTX 960. I wanted something to handle VR and it does so very well. I do some development in MAYA and the speed helps a lot. this is one of the most reliable cards to date. Not the fastest, but not the slowest either.

    The EVGA 1080 graphics card is a very good graphics card for any PC gamer that is looking to get into the high to ultra range of graphics. For the price point, it is about average but performance wise, cannot go wrong.

    I haven't upgraded my CPU in some time, but have experience with the GTX 980 and I was blown away at the improvement in a single generation. I have overclocked with the available EVGA software for even better performamce.
