Metro 2033
Always a tough test of any graphics card, Metro 2033 stresses all of the GTX480s in a way HAWX 2 certainly doesn't. The GTX480SOC repeating its performance of the previous tests even if just by a single frame.
Temperatures
Due to the faster core speed of the stock card the Super Over Clock is a few degrees hotter than the Lightning under load, although still cool and quiet. Once the cards are overclocked the Gigabyte offering keeps up its performance being 3 degrees cooler than the MSI card.

Wow it's a very nice job that Gigabyte has done. I'm wondering how their warranty and support will be for GPU's, if it's comparable to EVGA and they bring more non-reference cards like this well... They'll do really well! Comparing this card at stock the the reference card is quite impressive and the work Gigabyte put in, especially with technology that you can't pronounce ![]() |
