ZOTAC's GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Lineup Clock Speeds Revealed

[btarunr]

ZOTAC is preparing a GeForce GTX 1080 Ti of four SKUs, including the GTX 1080 Ti Founders Edition, priced at $699, which sticks to NVIDIA reference clock speeds of 1480/1582/11010 MHz (core/GPU Boost/memory). The company's custom-design lineup begins with the GTX 1080 Ti Blower (model: ZT-PT10810B-10P). This card sticks to reference clock speeds, and features a simple lateral-blower fan cooling solution, similar to the reference cooling solution. The card is also priced on-par with the Founders Edition card, at $699.

Things get interesting with the ZOTAC GeForce GTX 1080 Ti AMP! Edition (ZT-PT10810D-10P), with factory-overclocked speeds of 1569 MHz core, 1683 MHz GPU Boost, and an untouched 11 GHz (GDDR5X-effective) memory. This card draws power from a pair of 8-pin PCIe power connectors, has a maximum board power of 270W (vs. 250W reference), and is cooled by a dual-slot cooling solution. Leading the lineup is the ZOTAC GeForce GTX 1080 Ti AMP! Extreme Edition (ZT-PT10810C-10P), with 1645 MHz core, 1759 MHz GPU Boost, and 11.2 GHz (GDDR5X-effective) memory. The card's board power is rated at 320W. The company didn't reveal pricing for the AMP! series cards.

I like more and more blower cards, their clean asthetics make a refreshing change from the rgb fireworks custom versions have become.

Now that's a fine looking blower.

WHAT?! I can't hear you over the blower trying to keep this card cool..........

yeah, that's true, I wish there were improvements like a larger fan, better heatsink...
I always found blowing most hot air directly out of the case a more elegant solution.

now all brands release a cheap blower card and solve FE dilemma

Blowing air out is a good solution, its just doing it through half a pci slot is not

The 1080ti is a fair bit more effective than a pascal titan at cooling as it has the entire 2nd slot clear of connectors, so has a bit more room to blow out of

320w and people hate on amd for 150w 480's.... That's a serious amount of heat/power for such an "efficient" GPU....

Nearly all of these AIBs flagship cards are breaching FE board power/tdp. It isn't an AMD/NVIDIA thing.

Side note..people aren't complaining about the 150w reference...but how it scales (and not talking about their pcie snafu). It scales up similarly...40W difference in peak gaming... a bit less % wise, but still gets up there.
