Zotac GeForce GTX 1080 Ti AMP Edition (11GB GDDR5X) Review

The Box and Package

The box for the GTX 1080 Ti is pretty large just like their other graphics card. You’ll see the advertised 11GB GDDR5X logo on the bottom left.

As with all new graphics card packages these days, the contents are now pretty bare. You’ll find 2 x 6-pin to 8-pin PCIE power cables, some user manual, the card itself and that’s pretty much it.

The card comes with dual fans featuring Ice Storm and Freeze Tech, allowing sufficient cooling during normal and heavy load operation.

The Spectra lighting is also found on the GTX 1080 Ti, as with most of Zotac’s other mid to higher end graphics card.

 

A Closer Look

Removing the heatsink and fan reveals the Nvidia GPU marked as GP102. This GPU features 3584 CUDA cores and runs at 1569MHz (boost: 1683MHz). The 11GB GDDR5X vram is made by Micron and operates at xxxx MHz.

The card has 2 x 8-pin PCIE post connectors. Both needs to be connected for normal operation. For output, the card comes with 3 x DisplayPort, 1 x HDMI and 1 x DVI.

 

Installation

Installation was simple and is exactly the same as installing any of Zotac’s 10-series AMP edition graphics cards. 

Here, I’m using Asus Maximus IX Hero motherboard with an Intel Core i5-7600K cooled by a Cooler Master AIO. As you can see, there’s plenty of room around the card so there no fouling of the motherboard components.
