Today we get a chance to review another Maxwell based GPU. Thankfully, we have moved on from the teaser Maxwell in the* GTX 750 Ti and on to the big boys in the GTX 970 and 980 (but likely not the biggest!). NVIDIA has made some significant changes to this architecture including, but not limited to, much lower power consumption and more efficient use of the available shaders, and also memory throughput (via compression). In my hands is a GALAX (formerly Galaxy) GTX 980 SOC, or Super Overclocked to be precise. This card takes NVIDIA's reference design to another level with a more robust power delivery area and better cooler to name a couple of things. It's time to take her out for a test drive and see if we can melt the rubber down to the rims!
