Nvidia GeForce GTX 980

The GTX 980 is a capable card with the grunt to handle anything at 1080p and 1440p and almost all games at 4K, too. However, AMD's two rivals offer performance improvements for similar cash. If you want to stay green, the GTX 980 is a good option – but...

About a month ago, just two weeks after its flagship Radeon R9 Fury X launch, AMD launched its little sibling, the R9 Fury positioned as a big money-maker for...

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...

At NVIDIA Game 24 a few weeks ago, they announced their next line of desktop video cards. The big bad of the show was the GeForce GTX 980. NVIDIA was kind enough to send us a card, so let's take a look at the latest and greatest from NVIDIA.The GeForce...

The GTX 980 is the high-end card in the newly announced and soon-to-be-more-widely-released Nvidia line-up, for the latest quarter of 2014 and the first half of 2015; there will be an even more powerful twin-GPU card inevitably turn up, and more...

Over the last few generations of GPUs, the graphics card race between AMD and Nvidia has become an increasingly fine-tuned game of one-upmanship. Both companies have been turning out carefully targeted products that often straddle a fine line between...

The green team is on a roll and the Geforce GTX980, an exceptional piece of hardware, is capping what is proving to be a great year for Nvidia.

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...

We liked The efficiency of the new Maxwell GM 204 GPU is the most striking thing, in both the GTX 980 and its GTX 970 brethren. This is essentially a mid-range class GPU - generationally equivalent to the GTX 770 - but it's able to best the very top of...

When I first analysed Nvidia's GTX750ti back in March I was supremely impressed with the Maxwell architecture. This was a card that when overclocked could keep up with AMD's HD7850. When you realised it was consuming half the power at the socket and...

Essentially, if you can afford to, and you buy this card, you're going to receive it and be one happy bunny. However, if you're chasing value for money, then it's not your best option; you'll definitely want to sit tight and wait just a little longer for our imminent round-up of three GTX 970 cards.

If you already have a GeForce GTX 780 Ti or GeForce GTX TITAN or GeForce GTX TITAN-Z, it might not make a lot of sense to go with the GeForce GTX 980 right now, unless you can get some money back on that current video card. The GTX 980 will give you more features, and generally perform faster, but the 780 Ti is still a good video card for today's games.
