It doesn't matter what the reference shroud looks like. The vast majority of cards will have 3rd party coolers.

What a fugly cooler

Reminds me of something

Titan/Kryten... coincidence methinks not!

 

[Phixsator]

Must be fake.. must be.. i hope it is.. god it's ugly and way to aggressive for a reference design. This is something that would come out of Asus Labs with an ROG sticker on it though and a different paint job

I am using Nvidia GeForce graphics card for gaming purpose. They never disappoint me.

Thanks Jen-Hsun Huang

Photo is weird & could easily have been photoshopped. Having said that, were it real it doesn't have to be reference design, could be what a 3rd party are planning their cards to look like.

 

[DarrenM343]

The kryton x?

 

[shamus21]

That cooler shroud looks tacky and cheap maybe that is the idea.

 

[Mei]

nah i think its legit this time
any1 with reference coolers keep hold of them!
they about to go up on the bay

Probable release dates..

 

[Tommy_Here]

Probable release dates..

Source? Latest reports are suggesting 80 Ti and 80 non Ti are to be released a few days into June whilst the 70 card won't be released in till mid June

 

[Kaapstad]

Probable release dates..

I don't think that table is valid.

I think the 1080 Ti or whatever they call it will use the same chip as the Pascal Titan.

I also don't think anyone has said NVidia are releasing a 1080 Ti in June/July.

What was said is there will be a replacement for the 980 Ti, this can be done with one of the mid range Pascal cards like the GTX 1080 which should be about the same performance or slightly faster.

when I first saw it, I thought of the batmobile, although now I see Kryten :s

Haha, I like that cooler tbh, with the PCB, backplate and rear ports included it would look different. Obviously proper photos not from potato phone I bet it would look nice, not convinced that's the official reference though, I think this is a fanboy mockup. Something a guy has been making in his spare time. Looks good imho.

Hope this isn't legit, if it is we are seeing mid range part (Not full core count) now being used for the 'Ti' brand as well. The milking is going to be extreme this gen

Hopefully this is just fud.

Well Ti brands been around while and not just for Top end. i remember the 660ti's

Right, but look at that chart specifically, it says GTX 980 Ti >> 1080 Ti i.e 'direct replacement'. Replaced with the mid tier part occupying the highest end 'Ti' slot. This isn't the 660Ti level...

Hopefully this is just more fud. Otherwise milking has been set to extreme for this gen.

GTX1080 Kryten, do not want

I know what the chart says But i was responding to
"Hope this isn't legit, if it is we are seeing mid range part (Not full core count) now being used for the 'Ti' brand as well"

Ti Brand didnt use to be for the top card segment if anything Ti milking started with the 780 ti's
Long term i wouldn't be surprised to see a Ti type card in a few of Nvidia's ranges from top to bottom

Not really bothered about what it looks like, so long as it works and is quiet.
