GeForce GTX 980 cards from Gigabyte and Zotac reviewed @ TR

Zotac has been showing a sample of their new overclocking friendly video cards on Facebook and so far they look really good.  Sadly they have released OC ready video cards before but limited them to the China market only.

Let's hope that changes.

The GeForce GTX 980 is the new king of the hill among single-GPU graphics cards, and with nifty features like DSR, it looks like an awfully tempting potential purchase.

If you're feeling this particular temptation, there's probably one question on your mind: which one should I get?  We've spent some time with a couple of slick offerings from Gigabyte and Zotac in order to find out.

The Zotac Amp Omega featured in this TechReport review is their overclocking version so having a US based review site do a write-up is a good sign.  On the flip side the Gigabyte Gaming card is typical for them using the triple fan Windforce cooler and basically reference like PCB.

The back plate is a nice touch though!
