MSI to Launch New Custom Version of GTX 1080 Ti - The Gaming X Trio
While we're still waiting to see AMD's Vega graphics cards undergo a proper custom treatment from the company's AIB partners (MSI included), Micro-Star International has announced at the Tokyo Game Show that they'll be launching yet another version of NVIDIA's GTX 1080 Ti graphics card. This new design revision picks up the triple fan design that has been the staple of MSI's Lightning series of graphics cards, and applies it to the Gaming X brand. The MSI GTX 1080 Ti Gaming X Trio will thus feature 3x of the company's Torx 2.0 fans. The card features a 2.5-slot design that exhausts the hot air to the inside of your case (a minor inconvenience, since MSI's graphics cooling designs are generally considered some of the best out there), and features MSI's Mystic Light RGB tech.
The Gaming X Trio maintains the 1080 Ti Gaming X's 2x 8-pin PCIe connectors, and features factory overclocking to 1569 MHz (base), 1683 MHz (boost) and 11124 MHz (memory). Display connectors stand at 2x HDMI, 2x DisplayPort and 1x DVI. The new Gaming X Trio is expectd to go on sale starting on October 12th, and should carry a price tag that's slightly higher than MSI's 1080 Ti Gaming X graphics card.

Probably a 3 year warranty as usual.;)
Unlike PNY that doesn't give you any warranty anymore on your new graphics card.....
Of course, this might be the best cooler yet forthe 1080Ti. Who knows?
It wouldn't bother me though if I could afford it....:D:D
Look very, very similar. So much that I thought it had just been debadged. I have looked at damn near all the 1080tis and read reviews it's easy to mix them up.
