ASUS GeForce GTX 780 DirectCU II OC review

Published: | Posted By:

GTX 780 is the yum when it comes to video cards under a G in the US.  Does Asus do the card justice?

We review the ASUS GTX780-DC2OC-3GD5. Its Titan's little brother, the GeForce GTX 780 from ASUS, in a DirectCU II OC flavah-flaf. This is the 3GB DirectCU II & CoolTech Fan edition that comes factory clocked for you at 889 MHz (Ref 863) with a Boost clock of 941 MHz (Ref 900). However, ASUS increased the power limits a little as it seems, as the during monitoring the card ran steady at 1058 MHz. We'll throw our entire benchmark arsenal at the card including multiple FCAT tests.

The clocks seem good and the DirectCU II cooler is quite good though it is difficult to see the PCB construction and overclocking results are somewhat weak at 1000Mhz.  It seems like there is some room for improvement.
