![]() That upped performance in the Heaven benchmark to an average 58.6 frames per second and a maxed turbo clock speed of 1433 MHz.ĭo you think the Matrix 980 Ti could do better? You bet it could. With about an hour of tinkering, I got the EVGA card to a stable overclock of +100 MHz on the GPU and +400 on the memory, with 56mv of extra voltage. In the Unigine Heaven benchmark, there was a more pronounced difference: 48.8 fps for the EVGA, 56 fps for the Matrix 980 Ti. The Matrix again did a few frames better at 39.6 fps average. In GTA5, the EVGA card turned in an average of 35.9 fps at 1440p with every graphics setting and advanced graphics setting turned all the way up, including 8x MSAA. ![]() ![]() Storage: Plextor M6e SSD, OCZ Vector 180 SSD ![]() Out of the box, the Matrix’s base clock is set at 1190 MHz and it turbos as high as 1317 MHz.Ĭooler: Enermax Liqtech 240 closed-loop liquid It easily blew past my EVGA 980 Ti SC Gaming ACX 2.0, which is already overclocked at 1102 MHz (that’s 102 MHz faster than the reference card’s GPU) and turbos to 1190 MHz. After spending some time testing the Matrix 980 Ti, I can imagine hardcore overclockers having a field day with this thing. Unlike some oversized aftermarket cards that use all that space for three air coolers, the Matrix 980 Ti sticks with two fans and Asus’ tried-and-true DirectCU II copper heatpipe system. And it’s a massive card by modern Nvidia standards, three slots wide and 11.5 inches long. The Matrix is Asus’s roided out top-end version of the 980 Ti, factory overclocked well beyond the average card with more headroom above that. It will ensure that we have consistent results.The Asus Matrix 980 Ti doesn’t just say “look at me: I’m worth a lot of money.” It screams it while flexing the graphics card equivalent of its biceps so hard it threatens to rip its shirt. *** Because that's the default setting, enabling it would be considered a driver tweak, and it might have a significant impact on scores. ** Because that would be considered a driver tweak, and it can have a significant impact on scores. * Because AMD optimized tessellation, shader cache, and surface format optimization are the default settings, and none of them have a significant impact on scores.
