MSI introduce their GTX 1080 Ti Armor and Aero GPUs

 

MSI have introduced their new GTX 1080 Ti Armor and Aero GPUs, both of which come with custom cooler designs and with stock and overclocked models.

 

The GTX 1080 Ti Aero is designed to offers a similar design to Nvidia’s Founders Edition, with a more workstation-esque aesthetic and a price point that will likely be priced similarly to reference solutions.  This design will come in both version with Nvidia reference clock speeds or with a small factory overclock. 

 

MSI’s GTX 1080 Ti Armor come with MSI’s Armor cooling solution, which uses two fans and an aluminium heatsink to cool the GPU. The Armor will be powered by dual 8-pin PCIe power connections and will come with either Nvidia reference clock speeds or a factory overclock of 1531MHz/1645MHz base/boost. 

 

At the high-end MSI’s previously announced GTX 1080 Ti Gaming X will remain supreme, with the highest factory overclock of the bunch and a small memory overclock.
