Product Showcase
On the previous pages I already mentioned that the card is hefty, and yes... it is heavy too weighing just over 1.4 kg due to that massive cooper block. 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 ArcticStrom is almost 12 inches in length which is 29 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. For a liquid cooled product like this, it really works out nicely though.
And yes, I do think that is a nice looking product with the accents and matte black. Now I am not a fan of too or too big many logos, but I can live with that Zotac one. Below I have posted a number of photos with different color configurations. if you have an RGB LED lit motherboard, the sky is the limit of course.
