Have owned one of these cards since they came out and i am only now upgrading as this will bottleneck my new setup, going with 12Gb RTX3060 tuf extreme, dont see the point of getting another 8Gb GPU. I did notice that it sags a bit but all you need is a little bracket to hold it up, i got one from "uphere" and it has worked a treat for years. Even with the out the box overclock it can still be clocked even more if you know what you are doing, has served me wll for years.
Thank you for a very comprehensive review. The card looks so amazing! The icestorm is a wonderful concept! I hope it can fit in my case. Thank you once more. Keep up the good job :D
hello, correct me if im wrong but is this version of the amp extreme cooler with the mini blades on the center better that the recently released 1080ti amp extreme? i noticed they used basic fan blades on that one
Just got the Vive Vr. The current VR games do not work well in SLI mode. The Computer uses 2 GTX 980's. Just recently a couple games upgraded to Nvidia driver ability. However it is not worth the hassle with VR newness all over again. This Card will do what is needed, and will send off one of my 980's to a happy customer, and upgrade another PC.
hmmm I just checked I can fit one, but if I ever wanted to SLI 58mm is just too much I'd have to SLI with a smaller GTX1080 on top and use the Zotac as the bottom card. I guess that should work too, right? as long as they have the same amount of Vram. Crazy tho, gaming motherboard and a giant CM Storm Trooper case and still have to make amends, for fitting things in.
Thanks for the prompt reply. Looking at your review, the card probably uses 3 slots. So my x16 slots being 1 and 4, they will be very close to each other. That is why Founder Edition is usually recommended since warm air is usually pushed outside the case...
GOLDILOCKS EFFECT.... I own 2 Zotac side by side and can't for the life of me choose the best bridge. so yea.... slot 1 with Zotac, then 2more slot it takes up then the second Zotac. So I would need a 3 slot bridge not a 2 or 4 slot bridge for it would be too large and too small. Hence the Goldilocks effect. Also, would I have to use both sli bridge slots??? I have seen single and dual bridges that plug into both slots on both cards. (going crazy) Thanks for your help.
Love it how you completely ignore the fans malfunctioning. You can even see it in the GPU-Z graph... I have this card and its fans will go on and off at below 30% speed. Going from 0 to 2000 RPMs every other second. If you try to set it to anything below 30% manually they also do this. It audible and it's annoying. 30% also is a bit too loud for such a massive card. Basically, it's like what's the point if a 3 slot card needs its fans to be audible when it doesn't overclock any better than any other card that is properly cooled... And someone else posted the same issue at Newegg...
+Vortez I'm stuck deciding between the Zotac Gtx 1080 amp extreme and gigabyte Gtx 1080 xtreme waterforce. I have a gigabyte z10x gaming g1 mobo using it for a flight simulator
The cooler will likely be exactly the same - just the spec/performance of the card will be different. We may look at the 1070 version. Are you thinking of buying one?
Yes I am. I've narrowed down my choices of aftermarket 1070's to either a ZOTAC Extreme or MSI Gaming X. What worries me about the ZOTAC is the size. Won't that beefy size cause some sag? What's even worse is I live in a country where they don't sell any GPU brackets at ALL. Other than though, I love the factory oc and the badass backplate of the ZOTAC card. Should I even be worrying about this?
+DucksExist This is something that had me concerned at first, but there tips online on how to support cards from the bottom or even the top using strong fishing line. I measured my case and I reckon the card will just nicely rest on the hdd cage....which is lucky.
Funny story bought the 980ti before this came out (didn't think it would be that good for the price) but luckily was damaged on shipping, returned it and got my money back and didn't get a new one, so now I'm waiting for this card to arrive :D!
I have a question, there is much difference between ZOTAC 1080 gtx amp and extreme edition edition. Really makes the difference extreme edition? approximately how many fps. And one more question, i have a gtx 970 extreme edition worth to spend money in gtx 1070 or i have to buy the 1080 gtx amp edition? google translator.
Both are very similar. It's hard to pick a clear winner out of the two. It comes down to how much you can buy them for and which one you prefer the look of.
LacustGamerBR i am using 2 1080 gtx amp extreme graphic card and its true that only one this play games in 4k with max fps of 36 and 2 of em gives 68-76 is killing i love it
Question? How did you get it cos ii'm attempting to buy it, as it seems as though all of them are at pre-order and the cheapest I found was amazon who was doing it for £575.78 but they don't know when they are going to receive some
Would you be able to confirm if this beast will work on PCI Express 2.0?... and on a board like the "asus p6x58d premium"If compatible, then I will most definitely make a plan to get me one.
Man in europe still not on stock that sucks so baaaaad...819€ and more, btw a very well made unboxing and quick benchmarking thank you, i was really searching for this card the temps.
I don't know which gtx 1080 to buy.... I have a AMD R7 370 and I want to get a better GPU so I was wanting a 1080 but just don't know which one. I also have a i7 2600k, so will I bottleneck?
While the tech has been there it hasn't been implemented into monitors yet for the public so like I said hopefully within a year for 4k 144hz monitors to be released. Also wasn't mentioning the needed GPU for frames over 60fps as i did watch this video.
I just got mine today. this thing is great finish to my setup things that I don't like about it that it is just massive I had to remove 2 hard drive brackets from my case (NXT 450 NOCTIS )... which is not a small one forget about SLI with this card it hides two card slots already and it is just too close to my SSD drives the things I like is it handles heat like nothing and runs games on 2k without a hitch overall I like the card it looks great and over the top performance not to forget it is the best cooling card yet but the size is a big problem here
+shenglongx appernly it does matter due to throttling at default fans and too loud when the fans are customed higher, also limiting the overclocking ability unless you don't mind running fans at 100%. only a fool would defend the founders edition, especially when you have cheaper, cooler, and more powerful non reference 1080s out there.
That's with the fans still running at low rpm while being pushed. I recently bought the 1070 version of this card and with it pushed hard in game, the temps hit about 62-64 degrees with the fans running at closer to 85-90 percent. And yeah, at that speed it's a bit louder. The odd ball thing about this card is the fan profile out of the box. Idle until 50 degrees and barely goes above 50 percent ever.
to be honest i don't think we'll see a gtx 1080ti this year unless amd comes out with a card to blow the 1080 out the water,but i think a 10 series titan is well on it's way this year though.
dingous donglious The RX 490 is supposedly coming out by the end of the year, but I dont think it blows the 1080 out of the water. Perhaps AMD´s got something else up their magical hat. Perhaps another dual GPU card? Who knows. Aye, a 24gb titan, fkin crazyness imo.
that titan is what i'm saving my next gpu upgrade for it will be a monster card,never been a fan of amd personally but it's good they are still around.
Sooooo,how do you get almost 70fps on 4K on Tomb raider???? Watched alot of other vids with this card and it cant run more than 50fps when on 4K So how do you do it??
Timur Kamilov the only thing "better" than the 8350 is the 9590, which is just an over clocked 8350, which still isn't much better, I was an amd fan, but they haven't came out with a better cpu since the 8350, which is a little over 3 years old....lol. Unless you want to wait for zen, I'd switch to intel like I am.
my card came today and it doesn't work:( no video will display.. The lights come on and I can hear windows start up but no video. I tried all the ports and tried 2 different monitors and a couple cables no luck.. Put my 970 back in and it came right up...
This was my thought exactly and why I picked up the eVGA SC (cheaper than founder + aftermarket cooler). I hit 2ghz no problem without any increased voltages.
For certain games CAM wouldn't work so rather than use different apps for FPS capture we thought it would be better to keep things consistent and use FRAPS.
I bought a 1080 zotac amp edition....it runs pretty damn hot...80% fan barely keeps it under 84 degrees. This is in a well airflow case. I am sad now as I had to return it for "testing"
I live in Canada, room temp was around 22c with an air conditioner running. I do have a C-type cpu cooler that dumps more heat into the case which could be adding to it. My issue is I had a 780ti acx2 in the same case/cpu etc and it always stuck just under 80C overclocked around 60-70% fan.
Im in the same boat. At the moment deciding between msi evga or this one. I seem to lean towards EVGA at this moment. Their ACX fans always seem to do a good job. Also the MSI is right up there with the temps maybe even a little bit better.
+James Bonds good choice, the zotac card is really well built, I think it looks great and has nice colour light options, my only issue is temp. Waiting to see if the retailer let's me swap for an evga or founders edition (maybe rear exhaust would be better for me)
It would be great to see 1440p benchmarks :)
Coming in the full review Sir :)
Thats great!
Thank you for notifying me so I know to keep an eye out for it :)
Its live! bit.ly/29qfD0f
+Vortez
Thank you :)
+Vortez Thx!
Bit the bullet and went for this one, picking it up today. Thanks for the clear-cut review.
Great review mate, please keep the good content coming!
all the reviews on this channel are amazing such crazy detail on every little thing keep the amazing work man
Thanks for the kind words, really appreciate it!
Ditched my 1060, saving up for this tank!!!!!

Very complete review. Thanks and congrats
This is the best gpu video I've seen yet. So thorough. Thank you!!
Thanks - and thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed it.
cool review booyy!
did you had opportunity to put your hands on zotac gtx 1070 AMP (but non extreme edition) ???
Thank you for a very comprehensive review. The card looks so amazing! The icestorm is a wonderful concept! I hope it can fit in my case. Thank you once more. Keep up the good job :D
Mine came today. It's an absolute monster.
Stupid late question what does the sticker say?
Just got one used didnt come with anything but the box and the gpu and was interested in buying a sticker because im weird
Weird, most reviews show temps of 66ºC and below. What was your ambient temps? was this with a manual OC?
Most thorough review I've seen!
hello, correct me if im wrong but is this version of the amp extreme cooler with the mini blades on the center better that the recently released 1080ti amp extreme? i noticed they used basic fan blades on that one
Just got the Vive Vr. The current VR games do not work well in SLI mode. The Computer uses 2 GTX 980's. Just recently a couple games upgraded to Nvidia driver ability.

Thanks for the review Vortez, convinced me into making a purchase ;-)
It's a pleasure - glad you liked it. Enjoy the new card!!
Will you do for 1080 Xtreme Gaming?
excellent review
from where you get the background music plz ?
hmmm I just checked I can fit one, but if I ever wanted to SLI 58mm is just too much I'd have to SLI with a smaller GTX1080 on top and use the Zotac as the bottom card.
I guess that should work too, right? as long as they have the same amount of Vram.
Crazy tho, gaming motherboard and a giant CM Storm Trooper case and still have to make amends, for fitting things in.
Thx for the great review! How do you tjink those fans will work in a SLI configuration since the two cards will be very close to each other???
It depends how close they are - might be doing an SLI review of this card soon, so stay tuned.
Thanks for the prompt reply. Looking at your review, the card probably uses 3 slots. So my x16 slots being 1 and 4, they will be very close to each other. That is why Founder Edition is usually recommended since warm air is usually pushed outside the case...

And someone else posted the same issue at Newegg...
with regard to the two power cables 6 to 8 pins. do I need to plug the two 6 pins on each cable to the power supply or one will do?
Just bought 1 of these off overclcokers. What a beastly card.
one of the best reviews.. keep up good work..!
Thanks my friend.
Was one of my top picks, may of cemented it here.
+Vortez I'm stuck deciding between the Zotac Gtx 1080 amp extreme and gigabyte Gtx 1080 xtreme waterforce. I have a gigabyte z10x gaming g1 mobo using it for a flight simulator
can you do a gigabyte gtx 1080 xtreme gaming review video please
Does this use the same pcb as the ZOTAC GeForce GTX 1080 ArcticStorm? Thanks!
Brilliant review thanks.. Big and bulky but looks to be a great performer and as you say -- quiet on load.
Glad you enjoyed watching. Think this could be the top-pick in the 1080 arena!
cool
How it the white backlight? Is it really white or bluish?
Would you consider doing the 1070 version of these cards or are they too similar to the 1080 to warrant their own video?
The cooler will likely be exactly the same - just the spec/performance of the card will be different. We may look at the 1070 version. Are you thinking of buying one?
Yes I am. I've narrowed down my choices of aftermarket 1070's to either a ZOTAC Extreme or MSI Gaming X. What worries me about the ZOTAC is the size. Won't that beefy size cause some sag?

How far behind this is the MSI GTX 980ti Lightning?
Thanks for the review. Well done.
So is a 500 w power supply enough for the card and the rest of my parts?? Sorry first pc build
just got this card in my new build, its pretty sick.
does it sag ?
could you fit four of these on a 4-way sli compatible motherboard? I know you can't 4-way sli them but I'm just curious.
yes it's true I just bought this card for my system as a gpu upgrade yay
Funny story bought the 980ti before this came out (didn't think it would be that good for the price) but luckily was damaged on shipping, returned it and got my money back and didn't get a new one, so now I'm waiting for this card to arrive :D!
Nice - that worked in your favour then! :) Enjoy the new card.
what is the diefrence 2 icestorm or 3 ?i see many o them are 3 coolers is there big diefrence?
I have a question, there is much difference between ZOTAC 1080 gtx amp and extreme edition edition. Really makes the difference extreme edition? approximately how many fps.
And one more question, i have a gtx 970 extreme edition worth to spend money in gtx 1070 or i have to buy the 1080 gtx amp edition? google translator.
Ivan Paigel Go for the Gtx 1070 if you dont an infinit budget
Is this better than the strix?
Impressive performance at 4K was not expecting that from Zotac. Can you review the ASUS ROG Strix GeForce GTX 1080 if you have not all ready.
Sure have - th-cam.com/video/tmjfP_nmWbo/w-d-xo.html
ZOTAC ROLES
+Vortez
what do you think is better in performance and temperature, GTX1080 Strix or this?
Both are very similar. It's hard to pick a clear winner out of the two. It comes down to how much you can buy them for and which one you prefer the look of.
***** I want to use the cards in sli, but I like the look of both cards, I just want to ask, how is the cooling performance of both card?
This card wins by 8% or more performance I used both
but Strix have better RGB and software.
the strix is plastic and the zotec is metal... zotec is better
LacustGamerBR i am using 2 1080 gtx amp extreme graphic card and its true that only one this play games in 4k with max fps of 36 and 2 of em gives 68-76 is killing i love it
Question? How did you get it cos ii'm attempting to buy it, as it seems as though all of them are at pre-order and the cheapest I found was amazon who was doing it for £575.78 but they don't know when they are going to receive some
That will be the normal amp not the extreme
No amazon shows that it was the amp extreme edition
+crypticpower It's definitely the extreme, I got one ordered quick before they put the price up.
yh i got that price when i ordered it yesterday
Excellent review..... Subscribed!
Thanks for watching - welcome aboard!
I would be very happy if you could review the 1080 phoenix goes like hell :p
the fan is it intake or out take ?
Which clock did he reach??
Would you be able to confirm if this beast will work on PCI Express 2.0?... and on a board like the "asus p6x58d premium"If compatible, then I will most definitely make a plan to get me one.
How high is the "real" clockspeed?
Bro my amp extreme . I can't able to instal driver .
If try it telling that this windows version is not support for this driver... Any solution ???
This is on Amazon for £428 right now. Definitely getting one!
Also would be great to see max overclocking... Seems that power limit in this card is high, reaching 386w...
Did you experience any coil whine with this puppy?
My gainward is screaming like a stuck pig unfortunately...
None on this card. Operates super quiet under full-load as shown.
Thank you.
Very good review.
Man in europe still not on stock that sucks so baaaaad...819€ and more, btw a very well made unboxing and quick benchmarking thank you, i was really searching for this card the temps.
I don't know which gtx 1080 to buy....
I have a AMD R7 370 and I want to get a better GPU so I was wanting a 1080 but just don't know which one. I also have a i7 2600k, so will I bottleneck?
yes it will bottleneck .. by atleast 30 frames on 1080 and 20 on 1440p
yes it will bottleneck .. by atleast 30 frames on 1080 and 20 on 1440p
How come no one has any video on this card crashing with no fix in mind to help people ???
so when is a 120hz 4k monitor going to be released?
2020.
ow maybe 1 or 2 years we have to wait for the 1180 then you definetly can ;)))
Asus did show a prototype 4k 144hz monitor around end of May or June, so hopefully within a year.
CutLoose
DP1.4 has been out for months. A 1080 could easily run CS Go at 4K/120hz
While the tech has been there it hasn't been implemented into monitors yet for the public so like I said hopefully within a year for 4k 144hz monitors to be released. Also wasn't mentioning the needed GPU for frames over 60fps as i did watch this video.
I'd love to get one for me. i have 970 extreme gaming, itz gooooood
BTW great vid bro 👌🏼👍🏼
Good review! EVGA GTX1080 FTW next please. Thank you
Thanks, will try but EVGA marketing - like trying to get blood out of a stone.
damnnn, can you hear that coil whine? looks like its not just the gigabyte cards.
11:08 Ragnar! :D
My avatar on Steam/Origin :)
haha best Avatar to have :D Also you deserve so many more views man :) I have been watching your stuff for so long! your quality is so good! :)
Thanks :) Nice to hear from a long-time subscriber, glad you're enjoying the content my friend!
so which is better exactly this zotac or the evga strix
john sim This one
Can the ZOTAC GTX 1080 AMP! Extreme Fit in Alienware Graphic amplifier? thx
I just got mine today. this thing is great finish to my setup
things that I don't like about it that it is just massive I had to remove 2 hard drive brackets from my case (NXT 450 NOCTIS )... which is not a small one
forget about SLI with this card it hides two card slots already and it is just too close to my SSD drives
the things I like is it handles heat like nothing and runs games on 2k without a hitch
overall I like the card it looks great and over the top performance not to forget it is the best cooling card yet
but the size is a big problem here
does it sag ?
Hi - in which games is implemented SMP? thx
should i get it for 440€ ?
dose only one work fine when it comes to run all settings in games to maks ultra high quality without 2 how much frame speed dose it run on 1080p?
Ratchet _061 Over 100s.
Wont these fit extremely close to eachother in an sli set-up?
I have a Rampage extreme v for this board 2 will fit and that's it:) don't buy 2 unless forsure:)
As Mark said, it will depend how far apart the slots are, each mobo is different. Mighte be doing an SLI review of this card soon, so stay tuned ;)
What? founder's edition is 10-15 degrees hotter? So it is 89 C on load? I don't think so. Also 74 for such a big sink is not that impressive at all.
founder edition does go up to 85, 86. believe me
+shenglongx appernly it does matter due to throttling at default fans and too loud when the fans are customed higher, also limiting the overclocking ability unless you don't mind running fans at 100%. only a fool would defend the founders edition, especially when you have cheaper, cooler, and more powerful non reference 1080s out there.

And yeah, at that speed it's a bit louder. The odd ball thing about this card is the fan profile out of the box. Idle until 50 degrees and barely goes above 50 percent ever.
The Founders doesn't have a 5 year warranty. The Amp Extreme does
Aberkae Godrilla owned shenglongx haha
u should also review the Galax HOF 1080
cracking performance,two of those wouldn't look out of place in my case but i'm sticking to my 980ti now,i'll wait it out until a titan or ti version.
Hope the 1080ti comes out by the end of this year, should have huge performance boost vs the 1080, unless they cap its potential.
to be honest i don't think we'll see a gtx 1080ti this year unless amd comes out with a card to blow the 1080 out the water,but i think a 10 series titan is well on it's way this year though.
dingous donglious The RX 490 is supposedly coming out by the end of the year, but I dont think it blows the 1080 out of the water. Perhaps AMD´s got something else up their magical hat. Perhaps another dual GPU card? Who knows.
Aye, a 24gb titan, fkin crazyness imo.
that titan is what i'm saving my next gpu upgrade for it will be a monster card,never been a fan of amd personally but it's good they are still around.
dingous donglious So if the new titan´s release price will be 1.5k+ bucks, would you still get it?
The price in Norway is 819 pounds, why does it cost almost 200 pounds more than in the UK, we can't have that high taxes on electronics.
can a bitfenix aurora hold this gpu?
was that the fan noise at 100% or at max factory rpm?
38
can you make a video to overclock it pls...
what is this monitor you are using in 4k test ?
It's the AOC 28" 4K U2879VF
Ohh, pleeaaazzz any one tell me how to know the best gtx in the same family or number like gtx 970, 970 extreme edition or 970 extreme gaming.
Sooooo,how do you get almost 70fps on 4K on Tomb raider???? Watched alot of other vids with this card and it cant run more than 50fps when on 4K So how do you do it??
XeroxisHS High settings?
Good review when the test gtx 1060?
19 July :)
I didnt hear the noise because i had a game running on background and current 970 windforce is so loud.
How long is this graphiccard?
Wow.
Vortez ahahhaa
Will I have a bottleneck if I buy this card when my PC got AMD FX 8350 processor?
Timur Kamilov Yes it will bottleneck. I have an 8350 and it bottlenecks my 980ti, especially in GTA V, I'll be installing a 6700k soon though
Dan C do you think if I get a better AMD processor it will not bottleneck? Or should I completely switch to Intel?
Timur Kamilov the only thing "better" than the 8350 is the 9590, which is just an over clocked 8350, which still isn't much better, I was an amd fan, but they haven't came out with a better cpu since the 8350, which is a little over 3 years old....lol. Unless you want to wait for zen, I'd switch to intel like I am.
Dan C alright what's your build for Intel the motherboard and cpu
Mine is Msi gaming m7 and 6700k and 16gb ddr4 ram
my card came today and it doesn't work:( no video will display.. The lights come on and I can hear windows start up but no video. I tried all the ports and tried 2 different monitors and a couple cables no luck.. Put my 970 back in and it came right up...
Have you tried changing pci setting in bios? I've heard changing from auto or peg to legacy may help (someone else reported this worked for them).
I did swap back to my old card and check that out back in the 1080 and nothing...already sent it back for RMA
So boost is Boost:1911 MHz. All these 1080s over clock the same, I honestly can't see the point of paying more for something like this.
The standard AMP is a better buy at almost $100 less than the AMP Extreme.
Cooling is the difference. The lower-specced 1080s will throttle.
This was my thought exactly and why I picked up the eVGA SC (cheaper than founder + aftermarket cooler). I hit 2ghz no problem without any increased voltages.
I have a back order on the AMP for $588.00....can't beat that. They're hitting the disti's this week.
my strix 1080 OC boost to 2050 just using the overclock profile temps are around 68, 69 C
i got 2 gtx 1080 amp extreme now
u lucky bastard, I just bought my first one.
im going to lol
spec?
i got gtx 1080 ti amp extreme.. loving it
+Amir Faris Does it sag?
I think this one and EVGA are the best ever GTX 1080's.
how meny pins ???
Whats the background song?
why dont u show the temps and clocks of the games running to gives us an idea of how fast it run in oc mode
For certain games CAM wouldn't work so rather than use different apps for FPS capture we thought it would be better to keep things consistent and use FRAPS.
Does any one know what copper shim pad size would fit on the chip to install a NZXT G10?
Will Asteroids or Pacman look great?
This can't run those, but it can run Minesweeper!
thanks you for that nice Video!
Thanks for watching!
np! A nice Video to Start a beautiful morning in germany :D.
I bought a 1080 zotac amp edition....it runs pretty damn hot...80% fan barely keeps it under 84 degrees. This is in a well airflow case. I am sad now as I had to return it for "testing"
Do you live in a warm climate? Those are sky high temps!
I live in Canada, room temp was around 22c with an air conditioner running. I do have a C-type cpu cooler that dumps more heat into the case which could be adding to it. My issue is I had a 780ti acx2 in the same case/cpu etc and it always stuck just under 80C overclocked around 60-70% fan.
Im in the same boat. At the moment deciding between msi evga or this one. I seem to lean towards EVGA at this moment. Their ACX fans always seem to do a good job. Also the MSI is right up there with the temps maybe even a little bit better.
+James Bonds good choice, the zotac card is really well built, I think it looks great and has nice colour light options, my only issue is temp. Waiting to see if the retailer let's me swap for an evga or founders edition (maybe rear exhaust would be better for me)
Dont go founder, go for the msi or evga they got really good cooling. even the msi armor
Full review is now online guys - bit.ly/29qfD0f
what case would be most suited for this gpu to keep the air flowing?
Corsair 750D Airflow edition...i am in love with it :D
any midtower case with at least one intake and one outtake fan should be fine, like a cooler master mastercase.
When is the Release in Austria or Germany?
Would this card fit in a 460x with a h110i v2 mounted up front?
depends on game, but in some you could gain over 15 fps

Very good video!
