MSI GeForce GTX 1080 Ti GAMING X Graphics Card - Detailed Photos
We've already shared a couple of preview photos on the MSI GeForce GTX 1080 Ti GAMING X Graphics Card, htis round MSI outted the detailed photos. The photos show the traditional design from MSI with as can be expected, a TwinFrozr VI V cooler.
MSI once again is in full effect to offer you the most silent product available on the market, with the looks to go with it of course. If you look at the photos, you can see the basic design the 1080 Gaming X and Z also has with the nice backplate. The card seems a little bulky though and will definitely eat away two and a half or three PCIe slots. The GTX 1080 Ti Gaming X will get a beefy 8+2 phase power delivery system.
The MSI GTX 1080 TI GAMING X has three overclocking modes, the gaming mode would be the default clocked modus operandus:
| Mode | Base Clock | Boost Clock | Memory Clock |
|---|---|---|---|
| OC Mode | 1569 MHz | 1683 MHz | 11124 MHz |
| Gaming Mode | 1544 MHz | 1657 MHz | 11016 MHz |
| Silent Mode | 1480 MHz | 1582 MHz | 11000 MHz |
The card will be powered by two 8-pin power connectors. If you look closely at the photos you are also seeing a DVI connector, something the reference (FE) cards do not have, yet still is in demand by many. The actually availability of custom 1080 Ti card should roughly be half of April, actually that goes for most vendors really. On the leaks and content you see and have seen as such are preliminary and based on early engineering samples.

The MSI 1080 Ti Armor has the heatpipes on the side and is still a 2 slot cooler. Looks like the Gaming X will now have a 3 Slot cooler.
I'm sure as the 1080 Ti is hotter it was a change made for efficiency.

I've been been looking at the early pre-order pricing of these custom cards at EBuyer and it looks like they add a £100 price premium over the reference cards here in the UK, £799 vs. £699. Ouch! That's the opposite of the GTX 1080 where the Founder's Edition (a.k.a. reference card) was actually more expensive than the custom GTX 1080 FTW I bought from Amazon for £599 (vs. £630 for the reference).
I really get the impression that NVIDIA are taking the mickey with the pricing of their high-end cards, mainly because they have absolutely no competition from AMD.
The MSI GTX1080 was launched in the Euro zone at the price of 800€, 100+ than 699€ of the FE, so now it's the same.

No need to upgrade if you have an 800W.

<3 Waiting for the possibility to preorder.
For VR I guess. Vive for example uses dual HDMI.
