As we discovered in our review, Nvidia's Founders Edition GeForce GTX 1080 graphics card sets new heights for graphics performance and smoothness. That card is relatively noisy, however, and it doesn't shut off its fan at idle for silent operation. Those characteristics left us wondering how non-reference designs would handle the GP104 GPU. Gigabyte has at least three takes on the GTX 1080 in its catalog already, and today, we're looking at the company's biggest, baddest air-cooled card so far: the GeForce GTX 1080 Xtreme Gaming.
