What customers say about "Key Specs"

Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1080 Windforce OC Graphics Card

The Nvidia 1080 is an excellent graphics card and brings 4k and VR gaming to the average consumer.
Amazing performance from this card so far. My only issue is that one of the fans was stuck due to the X frame and the wire was touching the same fan.
I live-stream and play a lot of video games and this card handles it extremely well and my computer does not get hot even when running AAA games on High settings.
Guaranteed Satisfaction. I upgraded to this gpu from an ASUS GTX950-2G, which is also a great video card, and the difference in performance is beyond words.
In really intense gaming scenes especially long ones like a 15, to 20 min boss fight it runs a little hot 80c+ non oc but messing with the oc controls that can be remedied.

This Zotac card gets me most of the way there for 60fps @ 4K. It's not perfect as I do have to lower a few less important graphics settings to get to a 60fps, but overall it's great!
I have had this Video Card for a week and have had no issues with it. Some of these low ratings are from people that do not even own the card and have had complaints about the price.
This video card is blowing all my games out of the water with FPS. Mind you, I'm still a 1080p gamer.... Some people said I'd experience bottlenecking, I've yet to encounter any... CPU is always running at low utilizing, and not once did I see it go beyond 70% utilization in games.
This Zotac graphics card is the easiest to setup and get running. Tremendous Factory default settings, automatically overclocked @ 2025 GHZ GPU Clock and 5599 Memory Clock while playing promo game ~ Ghost Recon ~ Wildlands. This game runs so smooth and all the special effects are in ultra vision.
I'm a bit disappointed that core didn't run anything over 2ghz stable and then on top of that my memory doesn't OC barely at all. I see people running their mem @ 12000 frequently.

What customers say about "Features"

Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1080 Windforce OC Graphics Card

Lighting is a nice touch but can be difficult to sync with other peripherals.
I'm driving three 27" 1920x1080p monitors via Nvidia's 3D Surround technology and I still get amazing frame rates in all the games I play. This card replaced two GTX970's running in SLI.
The GeForce 1080 GTX is based on pascal technology which means, in laymen terms, it's ALOT FASTER than anything else on the market at the price point.
Lackluster lighting options; lights on card also look pretty dim.

Zotac GeForce GTX 1080 Ti AMP Extreme Core Edition 11GB GDDR5 X 352-bit Gaming Graphics Card VR Ready (ZT-P10810F-10P)

Dissipitates heat effectively, compared to Asus rog strix and Gigabyte aorus.
Amazing LED's with almost limitless color options
Cool on stock settings topping out under 70C under even the most demanding circumstances, and in a low-airflow case
MSI afterburner cannot override freeze technology. Means, When you manually set fan speed to 80%, nothing happens; until heat rises. Then, fans suddenly starts rolling @ 80%.
The cooler on this card is basically worthless. One of the fan blades broke off when a loose cable inside my case came in contact with the card, and now it vibrates constantly when under any load.

What customers say about "Connectivity"

Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1080 Windforce OC Graphics Card

Easy to use clock to 2038 MHz no software needed.
IT IS AMAZING! It's connected to a Samsung 65" 4k TV. I play StarCraft 2 and World of Warcraft and FPS at 60hz is well into the 100's with high graphics settings.
This is connected to 1440p/144hz/G-Sync and 4k/60hz/10bit displays. I did the usual benches with GTA V, WItcher 3, ROTTR, Mordor, and yes even Batman AK.
Only thing wrong is the installation cd came in way blank. Literally nothing on it.
DVI-D connection will not connect to my monitor. HDMI works fine for connection to tv however I get no signal from the DVI-D.

Zotac GeForce GTX 1080 Ti AMP Extreme Core Edition 11GB GDDR5 X 352-bit Gaming Graphics Card VR Ready (ZT-P10810F-10P)

There's a single 6 pin connection in those cards. I was stable until gaming, despite having 18amps on that bus from the power supply.
Power hungry. This thing can suck up a whopping 315W so you'll need a good PSU. Probably no less than 600W.
The quick start manual did omit the installation of the two 8 pin power supply connectors but I figured that out on my own and connected them.
