Overall you are looking at a card that consumes roughly 260~270 Watts under full load really. The TwiNFrozr revision VI cooler is as always impressive in both cooling performance as well as its low noise-levels. The card remains passive, as up-to a GPU temperature of 60 Degrees C the fans do not even spin. The fans (Torx) used are a new revision and should also offer a bit more airflow. MSI will try to force as much performance out of the cards at a maximum cooling threshold of roughly 70 Degrees C for this 1080 Ti model with the TwiNFrozr series VI cooler.

The card is 11.5 inches in length which is roughly 29 cm so it should fit comfortably in pretty much any decent chassis. The cooler of the 1080 Ti features that all familiar  cooling.

An 8+2 phase power supply is responsible for supplying the GP102 GPU with power, actually a 8-phase 2x dual-FET power design that’s capable of supplying at least up to 250 amps of power to the GPU. The two additional power phases are dedicated to the board’s GDDR5X memory. 
  

 
RGB LEDs are a bit of a trend and like everybody MSI is following. They did it right and subtle though. The LED system can be controlled individually by choosing any of the animation effects available in the MSI Gaming App, ranging from responding to your game sounds or music to steady light, breathing and flashing. Of course, you can also turn them off. And yes, I do thing that is a terrific looking product with the red accents and all matte black.
