EVGA GeForce GTX980 Superclocked 4GB HDMI SLI Ready Graphics Card
Cons:-Non really

Pros:-Low TDP-Backplate-Awesome I/O-Quiet-Excellent Build Quality-Superclocked over standard ref. models-EVGA Customer Service
Comment:
I have two of these in an SLI configuration on an Asus Z97-Pro MoBo. My monitor is an Asus ROG Swift. Needless to say, i'm gaming at a native resolution of 1440p. These cards kick ass in SLI. Haven't noticed any micro-stuttering, and the low TDP has enabled me to keep my Corsair CX750m 80Plus Bronze power supply. Note that i'm running everything stock, if I was overclocking i'd resort to a minimum 850W Psu. I don't find the need to overclock though, these cards are superclocked out of the factory and they're able to handle everything i've thrown at it at 1440p. So Stoked!

EVGA GeForce GTX980 Superclocked 4GB HDMI SLI Ready Graphics Card
Cons:-Still struggles with 4K (You will need SLI or wait for next gen cards) -Price/Performance ratio is not as good as the GTX 970

Pros:-Best single card out there right now-Will slaughter anything using a 1080p/1440p setup-Extremely quiet (Huge difference from my 280x)-Low Power consumption-Overclocking headroom-Looks so gooooood
Comment:
I upgraded from a 2x 280x setup(crossfire) and I'm very impressed by how quiet this card is. The power consumption is also very low compared to my previous setup. Nvidia has done a great job releasing something that is powerful, quiet, and not power hungry. The only reason I'm taking off one star is because of the price/performance ratio, and it's lacking 4K performance. If you are someone looking to push 4K in the near future I would hold off and maybe wait for the next generation of nvidia cards to come out. Something tells me that nvidia held back on performance here and that the next series is going to be much more powerful. Still, I don't regret this purchase at all. I will not be going SLI on these cards as one is enough for now.

EVGA GeForce GTX980 Superclocked 4GB HDMI SLI Ready Graphics Card
Cons:- Performance/$ could be better (like the GTX 970)

Pros:- *VERY* fast- Incredibly efficient- Low power usage for the performance- Top-notch build quality- Looks awesome (GEFORCE GTX on the side glows, too)
Comment:
This card is awesome. Coming from a GTX 670 - this thing blows it out of the water, and goes incredibly well with a 1440p / 144Hz screen.For example: Diablo 3 - FPS above 72 is hardly noticeable (not sure why) so I cap the FPS to 72. My GTX 670 would consistenly sit at 79/80C and the frames would drop  fairly low when things got really, really busy on-screen. This card on the other hand - highest I saw it hit with this same setup was 67C, and frames would never drop  below high 60's. It's very impressive how efficient this thing is. As for raw power - when I turned off the FPS cap, I saw FPS hit up to 195..Overall, I'm very satisfied with this card. The raw efficiency is extremely impressive, and the fact that is uses only a little more power than my 670 when it's going all out is really impressive. Not to mention, it's definitely quieter than the 670 when going all out as well, so the cooler is very efficient.I'm not sure whether it was worth it over the GTX 970 - that card is far more impressive for the $$$ - but I would definitely recommend GTX 980 regardless, so long as you have the money for it.
