Introducing the EVGA GeForce GTX 980 Ti. Accelerated by the groundbreaking NVIDIA Maxwell architecture, GTX 980 Ti delivers an unbeatable 4K and virtual reality experience. With 2816 NVIDIA CUDA Cores and 6GB of GDDR5 memory, it has the horsepower to drive whatever comes next. In fact, the EVGA GeForce GTX 980 Ti provides 3x the performance and 3x the memory of previous-generation cards*. You can now take on even the most challenging games at high settings for a smooth, ultra high-definition, 4K experience.

These cards also feature EVGA ACX 2.0+ cooling technology. EVGA ACX 2.0+ brings new features to the award winning EVGA ACX 2.0 cooling technology. A memory MOSFET Cooling Plate (MMCP) reduces MOSFET temperatures up to 13%, and optimized Straight Heat Pipes (SHP) additionally reduce GPU temperature by 5C. ACX 2.0+ coolers also feature optimized swept fan blades, double ball bearings and an extreme low power motor, delivering more air flow with less power, unlocking additional power for the GPU.

I am interested in the Classified, I wonder how much the 14+3 Phase power delivery will improve the overclocking of the GTX 980ti!

It wont (as such). What you get with the Classified range is the ability to over volt past Nvidia's guidelines. But to do that you need to flash the BIOS with a better image and add water! But the better VRM allows you to put more through it without too much fear of smoke.

What makes the Classifieds great (and others that do the same) is the 2nd BIOS switch that allows you to try flashing without fear of bricking your card - you always keep your stock BIOS safe on switch one (unless you want to flash that one too). Then you use the unofficial Classified voltage tool to go high on volts.

If the 390X isn't better, the Classified will be my next card (just like my current 780ti Classifieds).

Why in the world with no DVI?

Last I check 2015 happened... I have been using DP for a long time.

I would like to see single slot water cooled card without only 3 DP ports.

Oh and if you really need DVi you can always you a adapter. I really wish DVI would be removed from all cards.

Well I thought they included a Bios option called LN2 mode on those that allowed for some crazy overclocking? If not then at least you can have the dual bios option and the ability to flash the card to a more unlocked bios.
