Review on ASUS GeForce Strix Graphics STRIX GTX1080 A8G GAMING by Wiktor Fokt ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Everything in the product suited me, the price is generally perfect.

Oh my God, it's amazing, seriously! I've never seen such a good performance. I'm serious, this is my first serious video card that DRAGGING, CARL! My graphics card list is simple: 8600GT, 740M, and now the GTX 1080, and it's seriously the bomb. 4K, 60 FPS, yes, there are trade-offs, but still. You can safely sacrifice anti-aliasing (Come on, it's 4K, you should admit that we don't need AA anymore), tessellation and, damn it, stupid Hairworks. Believe me, the card is definitely worthy of attention. Overclocking through the native GPU Tweek Tool is as simple as sending two bytes, and with afterburner I haven’t had time to test it to the maximum yet. But this is already something. Of course, the cooling system at 60% rpm starts to be noticeable, but at least it cools down this hot thing, stabilizing the temperature at 62 ° at the crystal in my case.

Pros
  • Everything is fine! There are no words for how wonderful everything is. Well, except.
Cons
  • The price, all the same, 53900 (03/03/2022) is a lot. Too many unforgivable. But at least it looked profitable amid the ongoing madness. It's a pity that the price will drop a little further, and after the release of a new generation in Q3, this purchase will become unprofitable even for me, but damn it, now I had the only chance to purchase a card to please myself.
