Galax GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Hall of Fame: Review of a White Monster
Introduction
Galax, or Galaxytech as it was called before, was founded 23 years ago and they have been working for over 16 years producing gaming performance products.
Just have a look at this big and heavy graphics card! It’s a real white beast: an elephant or a whale.
Galax presented its new GTX 1080 Ti Hall of Fame (HOF) graphics card and claims that the HOF logo is: to manufacture a series of graphics cards with the best components available. Is it true? And does the power of this card justify its enormous size?
Main characteristics:
GPU (Codename) — GP102
Shаder Units — 3584
Bаse & Boost Сloсks — 1569 MHz / 1683 MHz
Memory Size & Type — 11GB GDDR5X
Memory Сlock — 1376 MHz
Memory Bandwidth — 484.4GB/s
Fаns — (3) 90mm Axial
Ports — (1) DVI-D, (1) HDMI 2.0b, (3) DP1.4
Power Conneсtors — (3) 8-pin
Dimensions (LxHxD) — 31.8 x 14.5 x 5.4 cm
Weight — 1689g
Wаrranty — 2 Years
Design
You will find the device in the box with side wings covering. But the inner filling is much more important. Of course, inside you find the device itself and needed accessories.
The HOF series design remains the same for every next product. The attention is driven by the wholly white look what is quite unusual for the graphics cards’ design.
The USB stick contains the PDF manual and Nvidia's GeForce Experience utility.
In addition, there is a «LuminHold». It is made of acrylic glass and serves to provide extra RGB lighting. It can be fixed to the graphics card and allows controlling the lighting directly. The software for this function is not included, but you can download it easily.
The back side is mat aluminum and inside it is black. But it was made not only for the designing purpose; it provides extra cooling additionally to the main one.
On the top there is a LCD with a back-lit and also there are three eight-pin auxiliary power connectors.
The device has the display, which manages to demonstrate a logo, clock rates, voltages or even the text you want. You are to download the necessary application for this too. But then you can boast of a really extraordinary and personalized thing.
Detalization
So what are the original features of the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Hall of Fame?
It contains: five enhanced heatpipes, signature choco-white PCB and super enthusiast PureOC twelve-layer PCB layout.
For coping with the extreme overclocking it has 16+3 phase digital power supply.
Galax GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Hall of Fame is imposing and super fast graphics card. It is comparatively quiet-working. G Anti-noise inductance and ultra low ESR ensure maxi low noise operation.
The advertisement claims that the given device has 16 power phases for the GPU. But in reality there are only eight, each of them having two detached converter circuits.
The power supply is well-organized. But the Molex-to-eight-pin adapters raise questions, as they are not quite safety. 20-gauge wires plus low-quality power supply can cause a flame formation. That’s why it would be better if you connect it with a powerful enthusiast-oriented PSU. Three of the wires are devoted to the memory.
The cooler is big and solid. It is made of copper and it transfers waste heat from the GPU to a total of four 8mm pipes and a fifth 6mm one.
Memory modules cooling happens from a ring-shaped copper plate fixed to the mat heat sink.
The card has three 90mm fans which are equipped with nine rotor blades.
The graphics processor operates at a frequency from 1645 to 1759 MHz, and 11 GB of video memory GDDR5X operate at an effective frequency of 11,400 MHz.
An average PSU with 6+2-pin connectors has to be appropriate for working with this card.
Conclusion
The GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Hall of Fame is already available at a price about $1200. If you are interested in this model, you should know that there are some more versions possible: GALAX GeForce GTX 1080 Ti HOF Limited Edition and GALAX GeForce GTX 1080 Ti HOF Watercooled.
So we have met a kind of a giant. It surprises with its size and weight and provides productive and fast work. If you are going to buy this board, you are to be aware that it's really huge. Length, height, and weight: all need to be taken under serious consideration. Thus, it is not only the relatively high price that can possibly limit the card’s customers.
Enthusiasts who are particularly fond of decorative features like LEDs and LCD displays will find Galax's Hall of Fame impossible to resist. It’s so important for the hardware to have good-looking variants. They help company to have fewer rivals to compete with.
After all, performance, aesthetics, and unique features of Galax GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Hall of Fame show productivity at the highest level.
