Gainward has announced its newest Phantom series member, the GTX 780 Ti Phantom. Featuring Gainward own design as well as the recognizable Phantom cooler and high-factory overclock, the new Gainward GTX 780 Ti will certainly be one of the more interesting GTX 780 Ti based graphics cards on the market.

Gainward decided to push the 2880 CUDA core Kepler GPU to 980MHz for the base clock, which is definitely significantly higher than 875MHz on the reference design. It also comes with 3GB of GDDR5 memory clocked at 7GHz and paired up with a 384-bit memory interface. According to Gaiwnard, this was enough to make the Gainward GTX 780 Ti Phantom the fastest single-GPU graphics card on the market with up to 10% performance gain over the GTX 780 Ti.

The custom PCB features 8-phase PWM design DrMOS and needs two 8-pin PCI-Express power connectors ensuring that there will be additional overclocking headroom. The new triple-fan Phantom cooler design comes with a "removable fan" feature, where each fan body can be removed for cleaning. It also features five 8mm heatpipes which are soldered to the copper base.

Gainward also included the "EXPERTmode" feature with EXPERTTool which provides some way of tricking the board for extreme overclocking that go beyond factory overclock speeds.

Unfortunately, Gainward did not reveal any details regarding the availability date and more importantly, the price of the new GTX 780 Ti Phantom.
