More or less. In my current collection:
- WoW
- Diablo 3
- Witcher 3
- GTA 5
- Fallout 4
- Battlefield 4 (soon to be BF1)
- Assassin's Creed (all of them, really)
- Overwatch
- Far Cry 4 & Primal
- Hitman
Each to varying degrees. (With the bolded ones being heaviest on GPU)

A gun is like a parachute. If you need one, and don’t have one, you’ll probably never need one again.
Like I said, 30-day return policy. Highly unlikely they would have taken it back when they are trying to get rid of as many of these as they can currently. If the card was still relevant, they might have taken it back, but the 980 has almost always been trash. 15-20% more performance than a 970 for 50% more. Most people bought 970s or 980tis because the 980 was just a bad choice to begin with.
As for selling it, with the current pricing of the 1070 and now AMDs RX 480, that thing will be very difficult to sell for much more than $250-300. A brand new 1070, which will outperform it handily, can be had for under $400 and AMDs new graphics card will be available at the end of the month for under $250 and will offer 970 like performance in DX11 but be far better in DX12. Why buy a 980 at any price point in between?

Brand new in the box 980ti for under $300. No chance of getting $300 for a 980 at this point. You might be able to sell it for $250, the cost of a 480X, but then what's the point as anything you buy with that money will be less powerful.
As I said from the start, even though people told me I was wrong, just hang on to it and use it. It's not worth selling at this point.

The gtx980 was designed for 1440p gaming, the 970 was designed for 1080p gaming, so yes 980 is more than enough for max setting in all games at 1080p I know it's what I use, well the msi gaming version besides why upgrade to 1070 for for 1080p gaming when these new cards don't even do hardware Async compute so their performance in DX12 is just as bad as the 9's that are being replaced.
