Two weeks ago we took a look at an amazing graphics thẻ from NVIDIA, the Quadro P6000. If you noticed in that review, we had another high-end graphics card from asus in the graphs, the ROG STRIX GeForce GTX 1080. We picked this thẻ up about six months ago & have been very happy with it. Our workstation uses two Xeon E5-2699 V3 processors which we also trò chơi on with a 4K display (3840×2160). Currently, the game that puts the most stress on our system is Star Citizen; the STRIX 1080 handled it with no issues with very smooth gameplay. Everything was running very good. Of course, with the introduction of the 1080Ti, we had lớn upgrade. Fast forward khổng lồ about three khổng lồ four weeks ago we saw the asus ROG STRIX GeForce GTX 1080 TI 11GB OC Edition making the rounds on different đánh giá sites & decided that we must have one.
The STRIX Ti OC version was a hot selling card with limited stocks available & seemed khổng lồ be out of stock everywhere. It did become available for about an hour at Newegg, và we grabbed one. Being very impressed with the STRIX 1080 we were very excited lớn run the TI OC version through our benchmarks.

The retail box art for the asus STRIX 1080 Ti OC is almost the same as the non-Ti graphics card. The difference between the two is the Ti & OC nomenclature.
Looking at the front and back, of the retail box, details on hàng hóa specifications located on the back in several panels.
Let us mở cửa the box up và take a look at what we get inside.
The is not much inside the box when we mở cửa it up, lots of đen foam & a simple black envelope labeled with ASUS.
The black envelope contains the driver DVD and documentation, under this, we find a power adapter và cable ties.
Now let us xuất hiện the rest of the black foam & get lớn the graphics card inside.
We have lớn admit that the hãng asus ROG STRIX GeForce GTX 1080 Ti 11GB OC Edition is one impressive card. It’s very large, thick & has a good solid feel to it. The kích cỡ of the thẻ has a length of 11.73 inches. Make sure your case can handle a card of this length. The next factor is how thick it is; it is a 2.5 slot card. Double kiểm tra other PCIe devices you may want to install so that space is given for air-flow to cool the TI OC properly.
Flipping the card over we get a look at the back side of the hãng asus ROG STRIX GeForce GTX 1080 Ti 11GB OC Edition graphics card. The backplate gives the card a good solid feel khổng lồ it & helps in cooling. It also includes Aura Sync Lighting controlled through software.
This thẻ also requires 2x 8-Pin power nguồn connectors.
Two SLI connectors provided in case you wish lớn run two of these cards in SLI.
At the back over of the card, we find two 4-pin fan hâm mộ connectors operated through hãng asus FanConnect II. Tuning options that allow you lớn adjust external fan speeds for efficient cooling. GPU Tweak II allows you khổng lồ adjust the fans in three modes, Auto, Manual or User Defined. This is a great feature because in many systems the GPU is now (by far) the hottest single component. Being able to lớn control chassis fans directly khổng lồ cool the GPU area is important.
Now looking at the end of the thẻ we see at the top, a DVI-compatible connector. At the bottom row left we have DMI port, HDMI port, & 2x DisplayPorts.
DVI Output: DVI-DHDMI Output: HDMI 2.0Display Port: 2x Regular DPHDCP Support: YesSoftware
The driver DVD that comes with the kit is rather limited & only has a few options.
After inserting the DVD, we find the main driver startup menu. Only two options are available, Manual và Install.
Clicking on the install button brings us to this screen. In fact, most options will direct you khổng lồ the asus website for downloads.
We advise heading over khổng lồ the hãng asus website & downloading all drivers and software to lớn a USB drive before installing the card in your system. The website will give you the latest software for your new card. The same goes for the latest NVIDIA drivers, at the time of testing were 381.65.
AURA
The AURA Utility is used to control the cards LEDS. For those that use a case with windows, this is a nifty utility lớn help show off your card.
ASUS GPU Tweak II
This utility is one we find useful và use every day. It allows simple lớn use presets that control performance of your TI OC. These are Silent, Game and OC modes. Also, there are full manual controls for overclocking.
Setting the TI OC lớn Silent Mode does include a minor overclock at 104%, fans run at the lowest settings to lớn reduce noise.
Next is Gaming Mode which boosts the overclock to lớn 106%.
And finally, we have OC Mode which jumps the OC lớn 107%.
We lượt thích GPU Tweak a great deal. For normal operation of our workstation, we have it set lớn Silent Mode, fans noise is very low và can hardly hear it. Later on, if we feel lượt thích gaming, we jump it up khổng lồ OC Mode which boosts our FPS in many games.
Our chạy thử setup
Our workstation has been used for many of our reviews and is our current test setup.

PCMark 8
With PCMark 8 you can chạy thử the performance of all types of PC, from tablets to desktops. With five separate benchmark tests plus battery life testing, PCMark 8 helps you find the devices that offer the perfect combination of efficiency and performance. PCMark 8 is the complete PC benchmark for trang chủ and business.
With this benchmark, the STRIX GTX 1080 Ti OC improves results a great deal; even when set in Silent Mode it still reaches vị trí cao nhất performance results.
Passmark 9
PassMark Performance test allows you khổng lồ benchmark a PC using a variety of different speed tests; it tests the entire PC & all its components.
With Passmark 9 the STRIX GTX 1080 Ti OC again takes the lead but requires trò chơi or OC modes khổng lồ reach the top.
Geekbench 4
Geekbench 4 measures the compute performance of your GPU using image processing lớn computer vision to number crunching.
This benchmark shows how these graphics cards perform in compute modes of OpenCL & CUDA. Here the STRIX GTX 1080 Ti OC is just behind the Quadro P6000.
Unigine Superposition
The latest Benchmark from Unigine is Superposition which measures extreme performance and stability of your graphics cards.
For this benchmark, we mix the resolution lớn 4K or 3840×2160 lớn push the graphics thẻ as hard as we could. The STRIX GTX 1080 Ti OC easily takes the đứng đầu scores.
Unigine Heaven
For testing with this benchmark, we mix it Extreme and ran each test.
Unigine Valley
For testing with this benchmark, we mix it Extreme và ran each test just like we did with Heaven.
LuxMark
LuxMark is an OpenCL benchmark tool based on LuxRender.
When it comes to compute related tasks the STRIX GTX 1080 Ti OC again takes the đứng top spots but does require game or OC Modes to vị so.
3DMark – Time Spy
Time Spy is a well-known Direct 12 Benchmark from Futuremark. It is often used khổng lồ benchmark high-performance gaming PCs; best suited for benchmarking the latest graphics cards.
Again the STRIX GTX 1080 Ti OC performs very well.
3DMark – Fire Strike
3DMark Fire Strike is a DirectX 11 benchmark designed for today’s high-performance gaming PCs using DirectX 11.
We will run three different Fire Strike Benchmarks:
Fire Strike – DirectX 11 Benchmark designed to chạy thử high-performance PCs.Fire Strike Ultra – Testing 4K UHD rendering.Fire Strike Extreme – Enhanced version of Fire Strike.
The STRIX GTX 1080 Ti OC shows strong performance with this benchmark.
AIDA64 GPGPU
These benchmarks are designed to lớn measure GPGPU computing performance via different OpenCL workloads.
Single-Precision FLOPS: Measures the classic MAD (Multiply-Addition) performance of the GPU, otherwise known as FLOPS (Floating-Point Operations Per Second), with single-precision (32-bit, “float”) floating-point data.
Double-Precision FLOPS: Measures the classic MAD (Multiply-Addition) performance of the GPU, otherwise known as FLOPS (Floating-Point Operations Per Second), with double-precision (64-bit, “double”) floating-point data.
The next mix of benchmarks from AIDA64 are.
24-bit Integer IOPS: Measures the classic MAD (Multiply-Addition) performance of the GPU, otherwise known as IOPS (Integer Operations Per Second), with 24-bit integer (“int24”) data. This special data type defined in OpenCL on the basis that many GPUs are capable of executing int24 operations via their floating-point units.
32-bit Integer IOPS: Measures the classic MAD (Multiply-Addition) performance of the GPU, otherwise known as IOPS (Integer Operations Per Second), with 32-bit integer (“int”) data.
64-bit Integer IOPS: Measures the classic MAD (Multiply-Addition) performance of the GPU, otherwise known as IOPS (Integer Operations Per Second), with 64-bit integer (“long”) data. Most GPUs vị not have dedicated execution resources for 64-bit integer operations, so instead, they emulate the 64-bit integer operations via existing 32-bit integer execution units.
With compute related tasks, the STRIX GTX 1080 Ti OC is very strong compared lớn the other GPUs.
SPECviewperf 12.1
SPECviewperf 12 measures the 3d graphics performance of systems running under the OpenGL and Direct X application programming interfaces.
The first phối of tests that Quadro’s clearly outshined the other cards in performance.

Zcash Mining Performance
We had a request khổng lồ run Zcash on our system khổng lồ see what performance numbers the STRIX GTX 1080 TI OC would generate.
Here we set the card to OC Mode và let it run. The STRIX GTX 1080 Ti OC pulled 267watts & generated 695 Sol/s. Very impressive.
Given the current valuation ($230 USD : 1 ZEC) that yields approximately $9/ day in Zcash mined with the breakeven at an insane $1.40kWh. Compare this lớn a GTX 1080 which can mine at around 500 Sol/s at 190W. That is almost a 40% improvement in mining speed & the GTX 1080 Ti is currently profitable khổng lồ mine with on all but the most expensive power.
Power Tests
For our power testing needs, we use a Yokogawa WT310 nguồn meter which can feed its data through a USB cable to lớn another machine where we can capture the demo results. We then use AIDA64 bít tất tay test to load the system and measure max power nguồn loads.
For our tests, we use AIDA64 căng thẳng test which allows us to bức xúc all aspects of the system. For this test, we selected all parts of the system khổng lồ be ức chế tested, except for the OS SSD. The results show max power use from the wall. The max power draw we saw was 543.44watts under max loads.
Conclusion
Making plans lớn get a new graphics thẻ is always a problem for us, when they are released there are many cards to lớn look at from different manufacturers. Each manufacturer comes up with different cooling setups & GPU speeds. At the time when we first got our asus ROG STRIX GeForce GTX 1080 we were very happy with it. Gaming on a 4K (3840×2160) screen is very stressful on GPU’s, and when we vì chưng game we lượt thích to play with maxed out details và settings, the hãng asus ROG STRIX GeForce GTX 1080 handled this with ease.
Then about six months later the Ti version of the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti came out, và we knew just the one we wanted lớn get, the hãng asus ROG STRIX GeForce GTX 1080 Ti 11GB OC Edition. Was this new thẻ worth the wait? Yes, it was. It chews through benchmarks & games with ease. It is truly an amazing graphics card. In many cases, it outperforms the Quadro P6000. If you vì chưng not need certified drivers for your applications, then look at the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti series of GPU’s. The day of the Ti is back.
ASUS has done a wonderful job with this graphics card; the card is amazing to lớn hold in your hands, unique is top notch. The software used with this card, GPU Tweak II, makes switching OC settings a breeze. If you lượt thích LED’s on your cards, the AURA software will not disappoint you.
It’s hard for us to comment on noise levels, our office has a lot of machines running. We could not hear the thẻ spool up under heavy loads. The difference in power draw between the different OC settings is minimal at best.
