ASUS ROG Strix GTX 1080 gaming graphics card

Everyone knows that the ASUS brand loves to delight fans with new products in the world of IT technologies, therefore it is not surprising that the latest brainchild of a Taiwanese manufacturer is hotly debated on the market - the ASUS ROG Strix GTX 1080 8 Gb 11Gbps GDDR5X graphics card.

Introducing the Strix products to the reader is not new. The video card claims to be an ATX case and requires an appropriate motherboard, because the dimensions of the product are impressive - 310x130 mm. For the chip to work comfortably, you will need an 500 Watt power supply and you will have to worry about having a connector for additional 6-pin and 8-pin power for PCIe.

As for the characteristics, the future owner has nothing to worry about. Built on the 16 nm technical process on the NVIDIA Pascal architecture, the board owns the 2560 CUDA cores. Frequencies no longer play a role, because on 256 bits of memory, the video adapter gives out 352,3 gigabytes per second of bandwidth. This is the best indicator for GTX 1080 chips. Cryptocurrency miners will definitely be interested in the new product.

Returning to the topic of toys, because a priori video cards are purchased for entertainment, and not for mining, the owner will enjoy high performance. In Battelefield on DX12, in the resolution of 4K, the novelty produces 69 frames per second at high settings. In FullHD, with the same options, 157 frames per second is a breakthrough. Tankers with disabled vertical synchronization will receive 105 frames per second on 4K or 118 parrots in FullHD, setting Ultra in the settings.
