MSI GTX980Ti Lightning Review
Temperatures and Power Draw
Published: 16th September 2015 | Source: MSI | Price: £659.99 |
Temperatures
The cooler on the Lightning makes the most of its excellent fin density and three big fans to keep the card cool under even the most trying of circumstances.
Power Draw
Despite the extraordinary amount of inputs the Lightning is actually surprisingly frugal in the power department.

This looks pretty cool one among other 980Tis!Quote

| The RGB lights are obviously a nice touch but we firmly believe they would sell vast more quantaties of this card if you had comstomisable panels where you had black as the standard colour and you could add your own blue, red, white, green panels to suit your own system. If MSI had addressed this point it would have been a total slam dunk. |

I do think if some detachable parts or stickers for the yellow bits it would be easier to make the GPU look nice in a system. Multi colour lighting is useless for a GPU that is clearly designed to be one specific colour.Quote
