NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 "Pascal" Reference Cooler Pictured Again

btarunr · Apr 19, 2016

NVIDIA's upcoming high-end graphics card, the GeForce GTX 1080, is dressing up for a June 2016 tentative launch. Its reference-design cooling solution is an evolution of NVIDIA's highly acclaimed NVTTM (NVIDIA time-to-market) cooling solution introduced with the GeForce GTX TITAN, spanning two generations of graphics cards (GTX 700 series and GTX 900 series). The design has more edges and lines, perhaps symbolizing the GPU's ability to deal with even more complex graphics. The cooler continues to be a lateral-blower type, which vents hot air from the rear panel. The cooler was first pictured by a worker at its aluminum milling line.

Who takes such pictures? Insiders from Nvidia who leaks photo's?

GhostRyder · Apr 19, 2016

Well, that is more attractive with the edgy news of the cooler. I like this change, but I wonder what else has changed!

dj-electric · Apr 19, 2016

Possibly a factory in China, i suspect.

Usually companies - the owners of the product or co-workers. I more assume that product owners like:"Here's a leak. Please be hyped!"

P.S. The most important do not be a herd and think wisely when you pay your money for every product

Compared to the previous slick ones, this edgy one looks awful.

...........with all that paperwork around it......someone with some magnifying skills should be able to figure out the who this belongs to.

That doesn't work quite as they picture it in the movies, you know?

wickedcricket · Apr 19, 2016

Pssshh, yeah right, like any one of you would buy a reference card.

Casecutter · Apr 19, 2016

As to the aesthetics on a scale of 1-5.
I'll be altruistic and give it a... 2

dj-electric · Apr 19, 2016

Who cares, really. Ill get it with Asus STRIX cooler on it anyway

Easy Rhino · Apr 19, 2016

Looks like a pile of crap.

EarthDog · Apr 19, 2016

Reference cards aren't made to look good...

Can't say it looks bad though!

Sure you can. It does. More angles makes it more 80's.

Besides, coolers don't interest me for aesthetics - performance is number one, that's why I rip 'em off and plug in rubber tubes.

trog100 · Apr 19, 2016

it dosnt like whatever its cooling will generate that much heat.. maybe 970 type heat..

a blown up version.. not enough detail to see much..

Thennnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn why do you care what ANY cooler looks like? LOL!

hapkiman · Apr 19, 2016

I'm not digging those angles. It looks like a 12 year old kid designed it.

efikkan · Apr 19, 2016

So it will be a low "polycount" graphics card?

Just kidding, it looks OK for a reference cooler.

PLAfiller · Apr 19, 2016

Deus Ex Mankind divided edition - yay!

Legacy-ZA · Apr 19, 2016

It looks like a air-cooled Vampire Coffin. ^_^

ppn · Apr 19, 2016

what angles. its perfect at least looking at it from a distance, my tiles have better angles than this.

heydan83 · Apr 19, 2016

It looks to me more like a crashed car...

matar · Apr 19, 2016

Loved the titan cooler and now this one is ever better GTX 1070 reference cooler is my next GPU or if I can grab a superb deal on a 2 GTX 970s with reference coolers and SLi them I may just do that I'll have to wait and see the performance difference between Maxwell and Pascal.
