Gigabyte GTX980 G1 Gaming Review

The tests were performed in a controlled air conditioned room with temperatures maintained at a constant 23c – a comfortable environment for the majority of people reading this.Idle temperatures were measured after sitting at the desktop for 30 minutes. Load measurements were acquired by playing Crysis Warhead for 30 minutes and measuring the peak temperature. We also have included Furmark results, recording maximum temperatures throughout a 30 minute stress test. All fan settings were left on automatic.


If it wasn't for the incredible cooler fitted to the Inno3D GTX980 ‘iChill Air Boss Ultra' card, the Gigabyte GTX980 G1 Gaming would be claiming our top spot in the cooling department. That said, the cooler managed to outperform both ASUS and MSI solutions – by a single degree.
