Just an update...

Still love this card. Plays BF1, Watchdogs 2, Just Cause 3, Fallout 4, and Farcry Primal at max settings.
21:9 2560x1080

Not sure if this card just runs crazy cool or it's my NZXT Switch full tower setup that is really helping keeping it cool. I usually pay a game from 2-4 hours at a time... fans have yet to come on and card has hit 54C one time.

Very impressed so far and the lighting on the card is just a bonus.

I have the gtx 1080 strix that i got for 549 before tax, yeah the fans dont kick on until 60c. I was concerned before i googled it too. My gpu fans dont actually turn on when i play dota 2 at all as i hover around 40c. The sad part is that i dont get 144fps which sucks. I kinda wish my gtx 1080 would work harder amd get me the extra frames. Im also too scared to OC tho

Although it could be my cpu bottlenecking as well.
