GeForce GTX 1080, Nvidia's most advanced gaming graphics card is nothing less than a wonder if it is to be explained in one word. Powered by the company's Pascal architecture, it has a lot to offer like smooth performance, incredible gaming experience and power efficiency. And it is indeed an ultimate gaming platform.
The Founder's Edition was appreciated when it was launched months ago, and there are a lot of things the users will like about this new $699 priced superchip too.
The buyer can absolutely rely on this card if he or she is looking to upgrade something which can seamlessly take on the high-end games including virtual reality (VR). GeForce GTX 1080 can handle many games at 4K. It renders many games at 4K and 60 FPS while set to Ultra. So, a user can play games in high resolution with almost every inch of the graphical delight. But it is still lacking the sturdy 4K at 60 frames per second which the fans hope will be fulfilled soon.
GTX 1080 comes with 10 Gbps Memory Speed, 2560NVIDIA CUDA Cores and 1733 MHz boost clock.
When it comes to being power efficient, it is surprising that a 14nm process Pascal-powered chip only draws 180 watts of energy. It is said to be quite unlikely that it reaches the heating range of 80 degrees centigrade, but when it does, the cooling process is much faster.
Those who still complained about GTX 1080's predecessors while dealing with VR won't get a chance to do the same with it. The performance is seamless giving the user a fantastic experience.
Apart from the features, it looks stylish in the black and silver mixed color with a dash of neon green.
Nvidia has simply upped the ante with this superchip.
