Product Showcase

The card remains passive, as up-to a GPU temperature of 60 Degrees C the fans do not even spin. Now on the previous page I already mentioned that the card is big, and yes .. it is heavy too weighing just over 1.4kg. You need to make sure you secure the graphics card really well. If you would not use thumbscrews on the IO plate, this card would break through a PCI slot when mounted horizontally.  

The GeForce GTX 1080 AMP! Ex is roughly 12 inches in length which is 31 cm so it will need some space inside your chassis alright. Please do make sure it actually fits. For those that wonder, the board is equipped with Micron GDDR5X memory ICs. An actual 10 phase power supply is responsible for supplying the GP104-400 GPU with power. 

 
RGB LEDs are a bit of a trend and like everybody ZOTAC follows. The LED system can be controlled individually by choosing any of the animation effects available in software, ranging from breathing and flashing. Of course, you can also turn them off.

And yes, I do think that is a nice looking product with the accents and matte black. The backside backplate has a "push the limit" logo, LED activated. Again I am not a fan of too many logos. By the way the LED color of the logo (white parts in the photo see below) can be changed as well as being animated.
