8. VGA GeForce GTX 980 Superclocked ACX 2.0
Video card EVGA GeForce GTX 980 Superclocked ACX 2.0 It is considered today one of the most “nimble” accelerators. But high clock frequencies (1266-1367 MHz) is not its only advantage. The card cooling system, which includes two fans, deserves special attention. At a relatively low core temperature, the cooler shuts off, so in the idle mode it does not make noise at all. As the load increases and when the processor heats up, the fan blades begin to work, not allowing heat to linger, thereby ensuring the smooth operation of the video card. The impressive amount of video memory EVGA GeForce GTX 980 Superclocked ACX 2.0 - 4 GB, backed by high bandwidth 256-bit bus. As a result, the card makes it possible to install even the most resource-demanding games. The image can be displayed simultaneously on four screens. The card has DVI, HDMI, three DisplayPort connectors, as well as two 6-pin power connectors.
7. MSI Radeon R9 Fury X 4GB HBM
Msi Radeon R9 Fury X 4GB HBM - one of the most productive video cards in 2016, ranking seventh in the table. MSI AMD Radeon R9 FURY X with support for AMD Eyefinity technology provides the ability to connect multiple screens when using a single graphics accelerator. Up to four displays can be connected via DisplayPort x 3 and HDMI connectors. The presented technology is indispensable for creating video walls, as well as for comprehensive immersion in a video game. With support for 4K format, the highest image quality, fine detail of scenes and objects. The latest generation of HBM memory used in the MSI AMD Radeon R9 FURY X is characterized by incredibly high bandwidth, several times higher than the GDDR5. FreeSync technology is designed to eliminate errors in communication between the display and the processor and allows you to get rid of such shortcomings in the game as image breaks, freezes, interruptions. For smoothness of the gameplay, the control of the image refresh rate on the monitor is provided.
6. Zotac GeForce GTX 1070 Founders Edition 8GB GDDR5
Zotac GeForce Gtx 1070 Founders Edition 8GB Gddr5 included in the ranking of the best performance cards in 2016. The flagship NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 graphics processor is based on the most technologically advanced architecture of NVIDIA Pascal GPUs.

1. Sapphire Radeon Pro Duo
Sapphire Radeon Pro Duo tops the ranking of 2016 graphics cards in terms of performance. It is built on the basis of two Fiji XT chips, equipped with 8 GB of new-generation video memory and efficient water cooling. A high level of performance is provided by 2 × 4096 shader units, which are helped by 2 × 4 GB of HBM video memory with 4096 bit interface. The maximum clock frequency of HBM-memory is only 1000 MHz, but it still transfers data much faster than GDDR5. In theory, the memory bus bandwidth is fantastic at 512 GB per second. As a result, the maximum power consumption of this graphics card is 350 watts. This is the same amount as a total consumes an average PC with a discrete video adapter.
