Bought this as a replacement for my GTX 770 card. It is quieter, uses less power, generates less heat inside my case, and is noticeably faster -- even the GUI seems just a bit more responsive, not that it was slow or sluggish. It is in an older system, an Asus Z97 Pro motherboard with a i7-4790K, but it works beautifully. Got it primarily to speed up 3D work. Unfortunately, my main application doesn't seem to take as much advantage as I would like, but it was still a worthwhile upgrade at the current pricing (around $300). I did get the MSI Afterburner tool and set the fan speed curve to be more aggressive and the board is almost always at 36 degrees and rarely goes over 60, even with heavy 3D apps. According to benchmarks, my graphics performance jumped up at least 250% and there is noticeable visual improvements as well. First MSI product I have owned and in am off to a good start.Read full review

Replaced NVidia Quadro K5000 in my video/audio editing workstation with this MSI NVidia GeForce GTX 1080...huge difference in rendering time and overall performance in Adobe Premiere Pro. Can't speak to those interested in its' gaming capabilities (I'm not a gamer)...but the significant increase in CUDA cores (from ~1500 to ~ 2500) and RAM ($4 to 8GB) was exactly what I needed, and at a great price-point compared to GTX 2060/2070 today.

Works well for 1440P gaming at medium to high settings with 100fps+ for most current titles and doesn't get too hot. NVIDIA drivers and software are stable and work really good.

Works extremely well in my ITX case since regular coolers tend to run a bit hot.

I was upgrading from an AMD R9-380. The GTX 1080 is definitely a step up from the previous vid card. Considering the cost of a new Nvidia card , this was a good price considering it was used.
