Customers are saying

Customers admire the GeForce GTX 980 4GB GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 Graphics Card's high performance, excellent price-to-performance ratio, and ease of installation. Many appreciate the card's ability to deliver smooth gameplay at high frame rates and resolutions. However, some users note that the card can run warm and is quite large, requiring a spacious computer case. The cooling system is a point of concern for some customers.

    Works flawlessly with my Mid 2012 Mac Pro. HUGE graphic performance jumps from the previous Radeon HD 5870 and complete stability and better performance over a recent go with a GTX680. Highly recommended for Mid 2012 Mac Pro.

    I didn't realize what I was missing with my previous 2Gig GTX. For today's games 4Gig is the bear minimum. This did the trick without breaking the bank. Bestbuys price match is awesome. I get the best deal and don't have to wait for shipping.

    This card is awesome! Please note though this thing is a monster so it should fit in a mid-tower case but it will be a tight fit. Make sure any cords you have going from the other devices to the motherboard are a little extra longer than normal. Other than the size of this thing it runs great! I mainly got it for VR and it can handle any vr game no sweat.

    This GTX 980 has been a very nice update from my previous GTX 770. Improved frame rates with nvidia 3dvision as well as very cool temperatures.

    I have always enjoyed a Nvidia products. I decided the first game I should play was Doom. Wow this card shines with doom on max settings. Never skipped a beat at all. I play on a 65" tv and it looks absolutely amazing. Great buy I should have waited for the 1080 but I think this will do just nicely for a few years!

    For $260, I believe I got the best bargain for the things I was looking in a graphics card. I still have some problems playing 4K video files but it could be the files I am playing back or many other things. Currently I have it hooked up to a 4K Vizio 70" and i'm loving every second of viewing 4K videos off youtube and other streaming services.

    GTX 980 in SLI

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I bought this second GTX 980 to use in an SLI configuration for a specific game I play. Seeing plenty of benchmarks (showing a 50% increase at my resolution) for other games using the same graphics engine, I purchased this card hoping for a similar increase. Unfortunately, I did not see the expected increase. Very little improvement was seen, FPS wise. SLI was set up properly. I do not believe I can fault the card. I believe the bigger issue was with the game itself and nVidia (not being fully optimized yet). As an individual card, I would likely recommend this to a friend. Using an SLI configuration for the game I am playing and the resolution I am playing at, no I would not recommend this card. If you have any questions, feel free to comment.
