The card is a brand-new warranty replacement, not a refurbish. I couldn't wait for the processing and the return shipping so I bought a new one in the meantime.

1. Geforce experience and the control panel were so easy to install and keep updated. I have owned AMD/ATI for about 7 years and it was never as easy as that was. I can now look at the drivers, optimize games with a button, shadowplay and the best part for me is updating the drivers. Crazy. Everything was in tow. The drivers responded well to every game and I didn't have to fiddle with them like I did previously to get them to work correctly in games.
2. I almost forgot I was playing with MY computer in the middle of crisis 3 game. It was so quiet. Like I really couldn't believe it. When the cards aren't doing anything they are off which is great but even in game the fans are so quiet compared to the reference 6970 cards that I always prepared for and could here even when It was stuffed away behind my desk. The case was open and right next to me and I bet I heard more noise from the CPU fan than I did the cards. Best part was the cards never went above 73c. Not even the sandwiched one.
3. Everything plays on max. There is nothing these cards can't do. I play at 1080 with 120hz monitor and it just destroys like nothing before.
4. The power consumption is so little compared to how powerful they are. They already come pre overclocked but you can go even more and not have to worry. This was a reason I didn't upgrade sooner to a 290x or 780ti cause my 850w could take them but with a smaller overclock than these could.
It's not that its without a few issues though. So let me break it down.
Pro:
- Crazy fast
- Super quiet
- Super cool
- Low wattage
- Sexy design
- Pre overclocked with room for more
- Easy install and set up
- Multiple ports for all kinds of set-UPS
- Nice backplate to keep it cool and so you can hold it without worrying of breaking something
Con:
- Very big, be careful. It was much taller and longer but not thicker than my old cards. I couldn't get it fit with my HAF X case with the side fan tunnel. Once I took off the little tunnel thing, it was okay.
- Blows hot air around case. The reference cards take the air and shoot it out the ass end but these cards although very cool, kind of make the case hotter.
- SLI does not working for every game. As in the profiles have not been made. The game still runs great on one card just kind of a waste. But you can trick some games into using both cards by setting up a profile.
- One that came looked like the cooler wasn't on as good as the other. It had more give. It works fine and is cool but just slightly worrying.
I am 100% happy with my purchase. It was the best upgrade I could have done and I wouldn't have picked another supplier. Amazing cards
The GeForce GTX 980 is carved out of the 28 nm GM204 silicon with all its shaders enabled, resulting in a shader count of 2,048. There are 128 available texture units and the ROP count is a massive 64, with a 256-bit bus connecting 4 GB of GDDDR5 memory.
ASUS decided to use their recently introduced STRIX brand for their GTX 980 flagship. The card is built on a customized PCB design with an improved cooler that completely stops the fans in idle and features higher clock frequencies out of the box.
ASUS has outdone themselves yet again. The GeForce GTX 980 STRIX OC is pretty much perfect, bringing significant improvements over the already excellent NVIDIA reference design. ASUS overclocked their card out of the box, which, depending on the resolution, yields a 5-7 % performance improvement. This lets it beat any single-GPU card on the market conclusively while also making it faster than the dual-GPU GTX 690 and roughly equal to the dual-GPU HD 7990. Just like the stock GTX 980, I'd recommend the ASUS GTX 980 STRIX for full detail gaming at 1440p and 1600p, with 4K being quite playable when two cards are teamed in SLI. The difference to AMD's single GPU flagship, the R9 290X, is roughly 26%
the overclocking ability is incredible.
1499 Mhz 30% faster than the reference.
whisper quiet, when not under any considerable load.Asus really takes advantage of the Maxwell architecture and brings it to the next level. I highly recommend this purchase, running two of them in an SLI configuration is a complete beast of the setup. Full review to follow.
Pros:
+ High factory overclocked GTX 980
+ Impressive out-of-the-box performance
+ Excellent overclocking potential
+ Solid build quality with 10-phase Digi+ VRM Super Alloy Power design
+ Aesthetically stunning design
+ DirectCU II cooler with 0dB Fan Technology provides good temperature and super silent
+ Low power consumption
