Gigabyte is amongst the select NVIDIA board partners that offer new Maxwell based high-end graphics cards from day one. The GTX 960 G1 Gaming ships with Gigabyte's latest Windforce cooler, which should be well capable of keeping the card cool at low temperatures. Apart from that there is a custom design PCB, so this pixel cannon looks like a really interesting contender.
Presentation
Gigabyte is one of the first Nvidia add-in-card (AIC) partners that have
decided to introduce a new custom GTX 960 graphics card that will use NVIDIAs
latest and greatest GM206 chip. For this graphics card, Gigabyte makes use of a custom PCB
paired up with its own custom Windforce 3X 300W cooler and on the flip-side of
the card, there is a backplate with G1 Gaming design. A quick look at the specs
also reveals that the card ships factory overclocked.
As always before the launch of a
new chip generation from NVIDIA there have been loads of rumors on the specs
before the launch. Browsing the specifications of this card we find 1024 CUDA
cores, 85 TMUs and 32 ROPs. Looking for reference clocks we find 1'126 MHz core clock and 1'178 MHz boost
clock.
As you can see from the GPU-Z screenshot below, Gigabyte decided to use a
rather beefy high factory-overclock on the new GTX 960 G1 Gaming. While the reference GTX
960 with GM206 GPU is set to work at 1'126 MHz for the base clock and 1'178 MHz
for the GPU Boost clock, the Gigabyte GTX 960 G1 Gaming runs at
1'241 MHz core clock and 1'392 MHz boost clock.
When it comes to memory clock speeds we see a tiny, 12 MHz frequency boost,
which makes the chips run at 7'012 MHz. Combine this with a 128 Bit memory
interface and you end up with a total of over 112 Gigabyte of memory bandwidth,
the Samsung memory on the new GTX 960 can be overclocked by factoy to at least
1800MHz instead of 1750MHz without any issue.
While the typical boost clock is set at 1'178 MHz, the maximum boost of 1'392 MHz
was achieved quite easily and the GTX 960 G1 Gaming held that clock most of
the load time due to the capable Windforce 3X 300W cooler as well as good TDP target
(nVidia's Boost technology being power-based and not temperature-based on this
card). At this point we also run Furmark to see how high the card overclocks,
when the GPU is under full load. This way we can determine a worst case scenario
regarding maximum boost clock. With the card we see clocks speeds of 1'392 MHz
at 1.2v.

The card
Gigabyte decided to equip their new GeForce GTX 960 G1 Gaming with the
latest version of their own cooler, which is called WindForce 3X 300W. It
features four 6mm copper heatpipes. Soldered to the heatpipes, there is a large and dense fin
stack which is being cooled by three 80mm fans.
Overall the cooler is well built and compared to the predecessor the copper base
plate is more even that what it looked like on the GTX 760. Nevertheless the
number of heatpipes has been reduced by one. Meanwhile also Gigabyte implemented
a feature that makes the fans turn off as long as there is low load on the GPU.
If the temperature drops below 43°C or GPUs power consumption is lower than
32W the fans are deactivated. If the GPU hits 62°C or if the power consumption of
the chips is higher than 60 Watts, then the fans are there for active cooling.
Another closer look at the cooler reveals that there is a large coper plate, which
helps distributing heat evenly to the numerous heatpipes. Sticking to the copper
plate we find thermal pads, which are touching the memory chips and VRM area.
The Gigabyte G1 Gaming GTX 960 graphics card, or to be precise our sample of
it, allowed a maximum stable overclock of 1'550 MHz
for the GPU and 2'050 MHz on the memory side. We used Furemark V1.11.0 Geeks3D
benchmark with 15 minutes duration and 3DMark Fire Strike Extreme With these clocks we had to feed the GPU
with 1.25 Volts and the memory ran at stock voltages.
A closer look at the PCB shows that Gigabyte equipped its card with an 6+1
phase power design. The GPU gets its current from six phases (NCP81174) and on
additional phase (NCP5239) is there to handle the memory.
The memory chips on the Gigabyte G1 Gaming GTX 960 come from Samsung and carry the
model number K4G41325FC-HC28. They are specified to run at 1'750 MHz (7000 MHz
effective).

Delivery
The new GTX 960 G1 Gaming graphics card ships well bolstered in a foam made
mold. Bundled with the graphics card you find a driver disc and two power
converters Molex to PCIe-6pin as well as a small manual.

Conclusion
|
General |
|
+ |
- |
The new Gigabyte G1
Gaming GTX 960 did well in our tests, had a decent factory
overclock and ships with a really good custom Windforce 3X 300W triple fan cooler.
The manufacturing quality is on a high level and the backplate is great
looking. The new BIOS for controlling fan in idle and load is yet
another great addtion.
On the other hand, we would have really liked that Gigabyte paid more
attention to the factory overclocking on this specific card, with
an additional 6 pin power and in combination with the Windforce 3X cooler the card
would be able to easily
run even with an higher GPU frequency. Despite doing a good job in keeping the
temperatures of the graphics card down we would appreciate it if the cooler
was just a tad bit less noisier under
load. |

| As noted earlier, the Windforce 3X 300W triple-fan
cooler is very good and definitely runs circles around the reference
solution, Gigabyte made a new BIOS to make the card run even more silent,
especiall in
case of 2D or light gaming. The fans start spinning when power
consumption of the card is
over 60W or temprature near 62°C. Later on the fans are turned off, when
the GPU hits 43°C or less than 32 Watt power consumption. |

The performance is where the G1 Gaming GTX 960
is on a competitive level. There is a really decent factory overclocking
and the card hits at least 1392 MHz in games. Nevertheless we would have
love to see Gigabyte push the boundries even further sind this card
comes with a rather beefy power design if you consider that the standard
TDP for a GTX 960 is set at 120 Watt.
The power consumption of the Gigabyte G1 Gaming GTX 960 is good
in idle with power consumption of the entire setup at 67W. Under load,
the new G1 Gaming GTX 960 pulls 220 Watts. Overall this is an energy
efficient card, but since there is a relatively strong power design also
power consumption is a bit higher than with other GTX 960 graphics
cards. |

At the moment we find this card listed in Europe
for 229 Euro. Shortly after the launch the price has dropped by quite a
margin, which makes this card even more interesting.
The Ggiabyte GTX 960 G1 Gaming is certainly a good card with capable
cooler and surpisingly beefy power design. Should you be looking for a
great GTX 960 graphics cards then this is an excellent
choice. |
