EVGA's customized version of the beastly GTX 980 Ti is the most potent single-GPU graphics card that's ever graced PCWorld's test bench.

  • Details about the EVGA GeForce GTX 980 Ti Superclocked+’s ACX 2.0+ cooling solution.

  • The GTX 980 Ti’s cranked clock speeds help it shine in every test I ran. First up: Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor.

  • The long-awaited Grand Theft Auto V is finally available on PCs, and with all the bells and whistles on, it can be a bear. We tested it by enabling all the advanced video options, then shifting all the graphics settings and sliders to their highest settings.

  • Sleeping Dogs: Definitive Edition is a recent remake of a wonderful older game, but don’t let that fool you: It can make even the most powerful graphics cards in the land sweat when you enable all its graphics options

  • Alien Isolation is the best xenomorph experience since the original Alien movie and when it comes to graphics, it scales well across all hardware.

  • Dragon Age: Inquisition is drop-dead gorgeous and one of the best PC games of 2014. Despite being heavily promoted by AMD at its launch, the game performs better on Nvidia hardware.

  • We test Metro Last Light Redux with SSAA and Advanced PhysX disabled. SSAA cuts frame rates in half for negligible visual gain.

  • Bioshock Infinite is getting a bit long in the tooth, but it uses the popular Unreal Engine 3 and both AMD and Nvidia have had plenty of time to optimize their drivers for the game by this point.
