XLR8 1080 Info

[TheGlenlivet]

Trying to find a review of this GPU in English hasn't turned up anything worth looking at.  I can see in peoples signature there are a few users here on the forums, so I thought I'd ask here. 

Can anyone tell me about the performance and noise level of this card?  I will use it for gaming but also for Folding when idle so the card will sit for long periods with 95%-100% use.  I bought a Founders Edition 1080 that I will exchange since it's too dang loud.

Is the 3X fan set up quieter that a Founders Edition fan set up?  Any known issues with PNY as a company or this card specifically that would keep you away?

Thanks in advance for the info.

Temps seem ok, it is one of the slower 1080's though looking at those benchmarks

 

I cant speak of folding (no idea) or their warrantee/customer support - general opinion is that for Nvidia - EVGA all as far as customer support goes, then the rest sort of fall down to personal experience - I opted for the Palit Gamerock Premium - Pretty much the fastest 1080 out of the box, but I think it's only available in the EU
