MSI announced the GeForce GTX 980 Ti Gaming Golden Edition, a special variant of the GTX 980 Ti Gaming graphics card with a copper heatsink, gold-colored panels, and higher clock-speeds. This limited edition card offers out of the box clock speeds of 1190 MHz core, 1291 MHz GPU Boost, and 7096 MHz (GDDR5-effective) memory, compared to 1178/1279/7010 MHz on the standard red and black GTX 980 Ti Gaming card.
The main distinguishing feature of the Golden Edition card is its copper-fin heatsink, with exposed copper heat-pipes, compared to the aluminium fin heatsink with nickel-plated heat pipes on the standard GTX 980 Ti Gaming card. This lends the card a lot of weight, at 1,338 g compared to 1,068 g of the standard card; but also better heat dissipation. Complementing this, you have copper heat pipes with a gold-like finish, and gold colored accents on the panels (cooler shroud and back-plate). MSI didn't announce pricing or availability.
