Graphics Cards
Testing Nvidia’s GeForce GTX 980 4GB Graphics Cards In SLI
Overclocking and Overclocked Performance
We already know how well both our GTX 980s overclocked from their individual reviews and you can see the links to those reviews on the first page of this article. As a result we set both graphics cards to the maximum clock of the slowest GPU overclock which just so happened to be 1347MHz core and 2015MHz memory: still very impressive overclocks. In testing this gave about an additional 10-15% of extra performance which is a strong result. Generally overclocking in SLI configurations can be tough but in this instance it was nothing short of a breeze.

Battlefield 4
thank you for this review :)
but my single gtx980 already more than enough for me,
Why no 290x XF or 295×2?
because its faster depending on bench lol
my gtx 780 sli gets 5297score on valley extrem hd preset and average 126.8 fps
The human eye can’t see beyond 60FPS. I have an Oculus Rift DK2 and a single GTX980 is enough for me. People who want over 100FPS in games have no life and probably live in moms basement. Hence, who can afford an epic gaming rig with a family to support..
First of all, that is complete and utter bullshit. There is no limit to what the human eye can see, only the amount of info your brain can process. If more than 60 FPS matters, is another issue, something that has been debated since the birth of monitors, however, evidence points towards that a higher fps can in fact improve performance in games.
Also, from your statement, I’m guessing you’re stuck with children and a poorly paid job. I pity you.
Very simple to prove wrong.. get a camera set video to record at 60 fps.. record your game play for a minute.. Set camera to 30 fps and record 1 minute.. Now play them back..
As a SIM RACER with yeah an uber system , fps do in fact matter in fast paced simulation..
Have you never watched a football game on TV at 120 hz,, vs 60 hz? A stunning difference.. Perhaps head back to mums basement , educate yourself before you spew garbage information.. Oh and I’m 45 years outta my parents “basement” ..
are you enjoying those vram issue? <3
i am boxing my 2 back up to go back to b&h electronics. i was playing battlefield3 last night and it would freeze and flash a notice about something. too fast to read, then would resume after the game slowed down. that was an SLI GTX 970 and the pg278q ROG> so now i have to cough up the extra 412 bucks to sit on the roof.
if you get a top of the line monitor, that SLI with that vram flaw will drive you insane. it isn’t supposed to be so bad with a single card.
“The human eye can’t see beyond 60FPS”
You are a moron. Human vision is not digital. Yes, we can see even over 1000hz.
“Hence, who can afford an epic gaming rig with a family to support..”
Seams to me someone is jealous on people who can afford good stuff. Awwww. /pat there there
You don’t see in Hz Faggot
Shut the fuck up shit eater

Shut up clown.
You need to go back to school, you’re rather uneducated…
The human eye has no limit, it differs between person to person, your monitor is always going to show it’s refresh rate regardless if your game is saying 100fps vs a 60hz monitor.
I pity your judgement, you obviously are living in a fantasy here either that or your 10 years old…
stupid cunt
Butt hurt are we?
How am I butthurt? Human eye has no limit huh? lel, fucking moron, it’s the brain that stitches pictures together, not frame rates on an eye ball, you mongo faggot, yeah thought as much, learn some shit cunt…
=D
We’re limited by present digital tech but what limited knowledge and research into the optometry involving this seems to point to the avg human being able to view and comprehend around 300 FPS while looking at a digital image. In time that’ll probably increase.
I have single gtx980 too, is it good for VR? I mean i hope it is cuz i got that card just for VR.

Please stop copy&pasting your moronic post. You are making a fool of yourself.
Xbox One and P4 both look good at 60FPS.
How did you do a benchmark on Battlefield 4? I’ve got EVGA GTX 980 SLI and my FPS is not averaging on 175? Maybe because I play the game on borderless mode? Oh and for those who say that SLI does not work for borderless mode, yes it does. I monitor my GPU usage using MSI Afterburner and I get about 50% – 60% on both cards. I’ve also got an Intel Core i7-4770K clocked at 4.5 ghz.
Maybe you should try fullscreen? 50-60% isn’t good.
