There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I did set a more aggressive fan curve using MSI Afterburner. Instead of having the fans cycle between default off and on, I set the low point for 20%. I specifically chose this MSI Gaming card because there were a lot of reviewers saying the fans were quiet, and they are right. On dual 1440p monitors the temps just hit low 70's after prolonged use.
I can't think of any negatives about this card. I'd easily buy this again, and I'd recommend it if it fits your budget and use scenario.
Fore reference I'm pairing this with an i7 4790 and two monitors, both on DP; one is an ultrawide ASUS PG348Q 3440x1440p, and the other is a Benq GW2765HT 2560x1440p. Runnign this with Gsync on the ASUS monitor is amazing!
At 1080p you run everything smoothly with absolutely no lag, everything maxed out and the beauty of every game shining through.
At this moment, im using 1080p 60hz monitor which honestly cant live up to what this card dishes out.
Yet, if you use DSR (downscale resolution) you can render everything at a higher resolution and bring it down to 1080p, so everything is of a high quality, always.
Buying this card basically future proofs you for quite some time.
Only negative is the price, but if you can afford it theres NO reason not to get it.
As for the apps, I only use Afterburner and Kombustor and River Tuner, as really don't care about the led on the GPU. Great card and recommended as it is running my Predator monitor with G-Sync on.
I have no cons about the card but the price.
I would recommend this card.
A 3 fan design would be much better for cooling these cards tho. That would be my only grip with these cards. That would also apply to Gaming as well which I also do.
Top reviews from other countries
If you’re looking for rock solid HD and 1440p (2K) performance, this card will deliver. (It also reportedly benchmarks respectably in 4K also, but my monitor is only 1440p, so I can’t comment there.) If you’re interested, I have basic benchmarks/technical stats at the bottom.
As some folks have mentioned, the card does tend to run hot out of the box and can thermal throttle at the DEFAULT settings, even with a well-ventilated case. Ive seen some criticism of the radiator design/fans allegedly not being sufficient for the card. A lot of this is based on confusion from the 1080Ti Armor edition reviews, which is a COMPLETELY different card (250TDP vs 180TDP – the 1080Ti draws more power, and therefore generates more heat). This same cooler was also used with the GTX 980Ti which does have a similar power/thermal footprint to the 1080Ti, so theoretically, criticism here may be overblown. All things considered, the GTX 1080 inherently runs cooler, so this cooler should technically be "overkill." In my experience, this cooling setup actually does a good job of with this GTX 1080 card and even offers overclocking headroom to spare if you’re into that kind of thing.
Some recommendations to get the most out of this card:
1. Double-check your case fan placement. I have two 140MM intake fans on the front, one 140MM exhaust on the back, and two 140MM exhaust fans on the top. Originally, I had the two top fans set to intake. I assumed that getting positive pressure in my case would promote pushing air past the video card, out of the case. However, I got a good 5 degrees C temp decrease by changing the top fans to exhaust instead. Heat rises? Who would have thunk.
2. I highly recommend downloading the MSI Afterburner utility from MSI’s website even if you don’t intend on overclocking. Why? My main gripe with this card comes down to the default fan curve. Out of the box, this card idles the fan at 50 degrees C or lower, and DOESN’T RUN THE FANS AT FULL POWER UNTIL THE CARD HITS 90 DEGREES C. GTX 1080 cards are set to thermal throttle at 83 degrees or higher... See where I’m going with this? If you set a more aggressive fan curve you can completely eliminate the boost clock throttling issues (I’ve got my fans set to 50% @ 50 degrees, 90% at 70, and 100% at 80). The fans run quiet and have hydrodynamic bearings, so running them at full load should not decrease the lifespan significantly. They are also very quiet under full load, so I’m genuinely perplexed why MSI was so conservative with their out-of-the-box tuning here.
Another minor nitpick is the lack of a back plate - but that's COMPLETELY cosmetic. Backplates do not provide any thermal benefits, they are 100% for show. Card sag is an urban legend made up to sell you hunks of aluminum. It also lacks bells and whistles like RGB lighting or fan headers, but that's a reasonable compromise for the price point. If you're buying this card, you're buying it for the performance. The black and white aesthetic is minimalist and looks pretty darn classy. It's not flashy, but you're planning to be looking at the screen, not at your chassis, right?

For reference this is in a Intel I7 with 32gb ram Optane ram and 4 Tb WD Black HD
Conclusion: This is a high end card that can both be used by extreme gamers and video workstations. I am the later. The gpu accelerates most programs that utilize it fantastically fast. MSI support is always pretty good and drivers for their products usually keep coming for a couple years after initial release.
While 500+ at the time of this review seems like a lot, but if you compare it with the Titans and the like @ 1500.00 (Titan X) to $3000.00 for the Titan V (no comparison here) the 1080 is a bargain when you consider that the extra 1000.00 for the Titan X only buys you an approximately 15 to 20% increase in speed.

si buscas algo que se mire bonito dentro de tu gabinete no la compres, es fea. si buscas rendimiento/precio y la encuentras a este precio no la pienses.
For example, I had put off playing Assassin's Creed Origins due to poor performance on the R9 390. I had most of the settings set to low or off and it just didn't make a difference. After installing the GTX 1080, the game automatically bumped up the settings, and the performance was vastly improved. Not only did it look like a completely different game, it plays like a completely different game. This has been the case for all the games I have been testing. Ghost Recon Wildlands is another example of a massive quality and performance jump.
I am new to Nvidia GPU boost, but if my understanding is correct, it will automatically boost as high as possible if power and thermals are in check. I am currently getting a boost level of 1924 on the Core. I don't overclock and I have not adjusting any settings to achieve this. This card so far is a fantastic performer and stays very cool under load. I have a more aggressive fan curve set in MSI afterburner.
I have owned many MSI products over the years and have always felt they have very high quality. When you remove the card from the packaging, it certainly has some weight and feels very sturdy. Due to the weight, it's possible you could have to deal with some slight GPU sag. It's actually lighter than the R9 390 I replaced which was causing sag. There are several inexpensive ways to alleviate GPU sag.
I was in need of a GPU upgrade and was waiting to see what the next Nvidia or AMD gpu is going to be "possibly" be later this year. If and when they even release the first versions they will probably be reference only with inferior performance and cooling. It can take a good while after that just non-reference cards hit the market. For me, jumping in now, even though there "could" be something arriving in the near future, I couldn't be happier with my purchase.
I have been supportive of team Red for many years, but AMD just isn't getting it done at the moment. I decided that I wanted to improve my gaming experience and Nvidia is the only real option in my opinion.
Highly Recommended
