asus it is worth to buy ?

Hello everyone

I'm planning to buy new card i just search for good one and I found asus 980GTX gold edtion it is worth to buy ?

My old one asus 680 gtx work perfect and smooth



For budget its open

many thanks 4 help

 

Are you planning on overclocking the card? Running it on air (or are you looking for a card to put into a loop?)

 

i`m not overclocker just i want replace with my 680 gtx , cuz the card spec good enogh for five year next generation games

 

Hate to disappoint you, but if youre running a gtx 980 in 2020, youll likely be forced to use the lowest settings, if you want decent fps.

No gpu is really 5+ years future proof.

 

The Asus gold edition is the fastest 980 out of the box but is also one of the most expensive.

The thing to know is that any non-reference cooled 980 from MSI, EVGA etc will be capable of the same speeds as the ASUS by simply using MSI afterburner to overclock the card.

So with the ASUS you are paying over the odds but if money isn't an issue, have you considered TitanX? I wouldn't recommend buying a TitanX but it is an option.

 

Do you care about budget? Titanx would be most future proof card atm but not best bang for bug.. I would def not go for asus gold edition if u dont overclock at all. Something like MSI gaming 4G or Gigabyte Windforce x3 has plenty enought cooling for 980. ASUS R9290X-DC2OC-4GD5 DirectCU II looks to be great for its money starting @~300e/$. 970 seems lack luster in many game benchmarks.

 

for this i am with u i know my sys will be too old running new games

 

thnks 4 advice i want buy just Temp Card after 3 years ill buy decent rig

ill take ur advice looking 4 evga 980 gtx low price until new rig with decent card like titan x

 

Good call. What's the MSI 980 priced at in your area ?

Also, what's your ram configuration ?

 

for price in my country i dont trust them cuz on online store u see betwenn 480 - 530 $ my country they duple the price they sell it 600 - 810 $

for my RAM confg its corsair 6 GB
old model : CMP6GX3M3A1600CX8

 

Gigabyte 980 G1 is awesome.

 

get more ram 6gb is getting low..

 

Get a reference card and throw a water cooler on it. These stock coolers hold GPU's back a lot...

 

i allready ordered corair 16 GB 1866

 

Buy the cheapest reference card with the best warranty. Put a custom bios on it and oc it yourself.

 

Wait for the 390X or 980ti to launch and pick one up or go for a GTX 980 as the previous mentioned cards will force the price down a bit.

 

Why would you not over clock it? Lol. I don't get that. Its not dangerous, at all. There are so many safety features on these cards, these days.

 

the money is not issue for me the problem is if i buy card after three or four month nvidia release new card better this this this is temp card after three year
ill build new decent rig

 

u know i am lazy 4 this , iam user who plug the card and play the game , watching movie

 

I ordered STRIX-GTX980-DC2OC-4GD5 yesterday , i think this is good card

i cant wait
