The GM204-chip offered here EVGA GeForce GTX 980 Hydro Copper clocked into the Elementary with factory greatly increased 1,291 MHz and boosts up to 1393 MHz when needed and deployed it – despite a significantly lower power consumption than previous VGA generations – an overwhelming Gaming -Performance! This conjures up via DisplayPort 1.2, HDMI 2.0 and DVI even 4K (surround) resolutions smoothly and with high details on (more) Ultra-HD displays.
G-Sync-compatible monitors can be 980 even served by the NVIDIA GeForce GTX up to the 4K resolution, which now also in Ultra-HD gaming to the special combination of NVIDIA graphics card and display ensures that unsightly tearing effects of past. Thanks NVIDIAs new Super Resolution feature 4K graphics are now displayed in detail on Full HD monitors and the Game Stream technology ensures that PC games can be streamed to a NVIDIA SHIELD unit.
For the extremely strong performance of the EVGA GeForce GTX 980 Hydro Copper also the 4,096 MB lush GDDR5 graphics memory is next to the Maxwell-GPU GM204 with its revised SMX units and 2,048 CUDA cores responsible operating at 3505 (effective 7010) MHz and bit 256 is connected. The power of GeForce GTX 980 takes place at this EVGA model over two 6-pin PCI-Express connector of the power supply, which should be able to muster at least 500 watts of power.
This NVIDIA GPU Boost 2.0 can fully grasp, it is important that the electronics of the card as cool as possible, so EVGA uses this model to a factory-installed full-block-water radiator EK Water Blocks including backplate. The GPU directly contact a surface of copper in contact. For integration into a watercooling system are four G1 / 4-inch ports and two Compression Fittings 1/2 inch and 3/8 inch available. The flat radiator with the large embedded in the lid EVGA logo makes optically forth a lot and leaves all options for an SLI setup.
In addition to their very high gaming capability with low power consumption, the GeForce GTX 980 inspired by many other modern features such as Adaptive Vertical Sync, the image enhancement modes FXAA and TXAA, support for PCI Express 3.0 and DirectX 12, NVENC, VXGI or NVIDIA Shadowplay , Of course, old friends not missing like the ability to GPU PhysX, 3D Vision and Surround.
With the latest NVIDIA drivers it says continue experience with GeForce GEFORCE EXPERIENCE! The ingenious tool is integrated directly in the graphics driver, enabling both potty Driver updates also perfect settings for each computer in each game! Given the huge database is queried in NVIDIAs cloud data center in various configurations, so that can be a mouse click make the optimal settings.
In order to realize the full potential of the card in the future, new drivers from NVIDIA or EVGA should be downloaded and installed at regular intervals.
