Review on ASUS GeForce Graphics ROG STRIX GTX1080TI 11G GAMING Renewed by Stanislaw Plonka ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

It works, but I don't think I'll be buying it again.

I bought it on December 26, 2022 (a gift under the Christmas tree), but on December 28 I took it back to the store. The reason for the refusal of the video card is the hum. I heard the throttles whistle - but I don’t have a whistle, but a rumble. It manifests itself when the load is above average. I checked it in tests and in games, my system unit is soundproof, but even it did not help with this problem. Being indoors while playing is not comfortable and after a while it starts to annoy, which is not acceptable for a product for which I gave 64 thousand. Application from the SC - a replacement for a similar one, or a refund. Fortunately, the store no longer had such a card, since I would not have taken one already. This problem, Asus, has not been eliminated for 2 years already - when the first batches with such a marriage appeared. Which naturally spoils the impression about the products and the company as a whole. After this incident - I changed my mind about buying even a ROG series monitor - I don’t want to face possible problems that the manufacturer doesn’t give a damn about. I'll wait until spring, they should introduce a new generation, and most likely I'll take it from MSI.

Pros
  • Potential for both overclocking and performance
Cons
  • Noise, crackling, whistling. Described in a review
