Description of Gigabyte GeForce Graphics GV N107TGAMING 8GD Renewed
- Don't know yet, haven't installed
- The screws were spinning, the seal was removed, the bracket was broken, two fans were killed.
- Performance
- Very noisy
- Good performance, quiet, cool design.
- Wasn't and won't be
- A small length (up to 29 cm), just right for my case. Power system 6+2 instead of 4+1. Very quiet and efficient cooling, can work without any fans on at all. I had a maximum of 61C on auto settings, in games up to 51C, in a bagel they say ~ 70C.
- The fact that the DVI-VGA adapter did not fit was a surprise, to be honest, although it is my own fault . It's not DVI-I, but DVI-D. I had to buy a Displayport-VGA converter, an HDMI-VGA converter is also suitable. A very meager package for such a card: a disk and instructions. I noticed that there are jambs with fan speed control, until I understood why.
- Very quiet, very cold. So far, I have not been able to heat it above 65 degrees, even at 95% GPU load. Accordingly, the cooling fans do not accelerate much and do not create noise. At a temperature of 65 degrees at 24 degrees in the room they work at about 1600 rpm and their noise is completely lost against the background of normal household noise. In standby mode, when no games are running, the fans stop altogether, as the card reduces frequencies to a minimum and does not heat up above 45 degrees. Accordingly, of all the non-references, this one, in my opinion, has the best cooling system. Very, very powerful. I took it with a perspective on VR, but so far I haven’t got a helmet, I just play at maximum settings in Full HD. The card runs Elite Dangerous in the Ultra preset with 2x supersampling and FXAA at a stable 60 fps. On these settings, I was only able to load it up to 95%, it is clearly designed for resolutions much higher than Full HD. In other games, in particular in Dying Light, also at the highest possible settings, the card consistently pulls over a hundred fps with a total GPU load of no more than 60% and does not even heat up very much. Initially, I thought to take 1080, but according to tests, it bypes 1070 by only 10-15% even at 2K resolutions, and taking into account more than twice the price, it makes no sense to buy 1080 completely. A separate bonus is the video encoder on board, which allows you to write to a file or stream video games directly, byping the CPU. This allows you to write videos from the game at resolutions up to 2K without loss of performance or use the card for a Steam home broadcast.
- When you buy this card, immediately consider that its cooling system does not throw heated air out of the case, as in the blower references. Accordingly, your case must be spacious and with exhaust fans, otherwise the card will create a large heat pocket in the processor area and will endlessly drive the same heated air in circles, overheating itself and the processor. For me, however, this problem is not worth it, since I operate the system unit with the side cover always open. Given the extremely quiet cooling system of the card, this does not create problems. The package bundle is also extremely poor - only a disk with drivers and a brochure about installing the card, that's all. However, it is quite clear why this is so - the cooling system on the card is more complex than that of the reference, more expensive, so the manufacturer saved on the card package so that it could compete in price with inexpensive references from other vendors.
- The guys from GIGABYTE know how to make good video cards for real money. It works quietly, very fast, does not require an additional power connection, as it was in the GTX970, and generally eats less than its predecessor in the series. Although the price is higher than in Europe, everything is exactly the best in terms of price / performance.
- No!
- After it has been opened, installed, and launched, press the X key to win. Disadvantages: The very first time I decided to increase the power of the coolers to 100% with a conventional software, I was terrified that the computer would start rocketing off into space. The sound produced by the valves. It has a lot of room for improvement.
- There are no false pretenses being made.
- Performance, cold.
- no and will not
- 1. Cost. At the time of writing this review (December 2022), it is noticeably cheaper than other non-references. 2. Cooling and noise up to the mark
- Not found in a month
- - At the time of writing the review, the card showed itself perfectly in all games at maximum quality at a resolution of 1920 * 1024 in FullHD (fps was above 60 in all). - Good price for a graphics card with 3 coolers - Included is a program for overclocking - Additional power supply 8 pin, connect to any modern PSU - You can set the color and frequency of glow, flashing lights on board xD
- With a large continuous load, when the coolers are loaded by 60+%, a squeak of chokes is heard. The overclocking program from gigabyte does not inspire confidence, but at least it just takes it to reboot, and does not burn the video card If your monitor is old like a mammoth, I will warn you that VGA does not support in any form (for example, an adapter), only if through a DAC converter, DVI-I to VGA It’s better not to put it in a mini-ATX (and most likely it won’t fit there), it throws out air quite clumsily, it feels much better in a spacious case
- - Powerful with good overclocking potential - Quiet, great fan cooling system - Well made and looks great
- - Dimensional - Expensive
- Silence. Symbol applicable to this map since. at 2022 rpm in a closed case, you can clearly hear how the coolers work. No, they don't moan, they don't buzz (they're just getting ready to take off). I will write about coolers a little lower. Chokes. I don’t play in 4K, only Full HD, but from time to time, the chokes produce a whistle that is not illusory (I note that this is typical not only for Gigabyte cards, but even for Asus. I don’t even have to talk about other manufacturers, everyone whistles. (At the moment this I solved the problem, about which again, a little lower) overclocking potential. I was initially not interested. By default, the manufacturer sells the version “out of the box” with slightly higher frequencies than the “stock”, which is quite enough for me, BUT FOR THOSE WHO DO IT IMPORTANT, the manufacturer puts memory from two manufacturers Samsung and Micron. If there are no problems with Samsung arises, then with Micron you are limited in your experiments and overclocking potential. It is absolutely impossible to find out before the moment of purchase. I won’t say anything about heating above 70 ˚С, I have never heated up, but the cooling circuit itself consists only of copper thermotubes, without a mirror platform that is in direct contact with the processor.
