Quite amusing that it is essentially a rebadged 8-series card, as it potentially gives some insight to Nvidia's current 'tactics' ... which are pretty weak if you ask me!
Otherwise, very thorough review as ever

The ability to raise voltage without physical modifications is great. However I would have liked to know the stock voltage.

You would think that they'd increase the clock speeds to make it at least stand out a little bit...Quite amusing that it is essentially a rebadged 8-series card, as it potentially gives some insight to Nvidia's current 'tactics' ... which are pretty weak if you ask me!

You would think so, but then the general public will often be fooled into thinking that 9xxx > 8xxx. Clever marketing I guess, and they can get away with essential 'evergreening' by providing the adapter and software, lol.
