Gigabyte already has a wide portfolio when it comes to graphics cards but that didn’t stop them from teasing yet another model. The new card is going to belong to the new AORUS line, and goes by the name "GeForce GTX 1080 Ti AORUS Xtreme Edition" and it’s supposed to perform excellently.


Gigabyte has released the first teaser regarding its upcoming GeForce GTX 1080 Ti. According to the picture, it appears to be identical to GTX 1080 AORUS. The cooler used on the GTX 1080 AORUS Xtreme Edition is an improved version of the WINDFORCE Stack Cooling module which we can be found on several Gigabyte graphics cards. The card features a triple slot heatsink and a dense aluminum fin stack that has been combined with three fans. The entire cooler has been kept in black and there should be a solid back plate presenting the Aorus logo.

Since all the latest Gigabyte Aorus products have been equipped with an armada of LEDs for RGB lighting, also on this graphics card there are several LEDs on both sides. Like on the previous model, the GTX 1080 Ti AORUS Xtreme Edition might come with find premium-grade chokes and capacitors for an increased lifespan. Although the folks over at Videocardz didn't mention any details about the clocks, we believe that both models will ship overclocked from the factory. In the past the Xtreme Edition series graphics cards from Gigabyte always featured substantial factory overclocks and we don’t believe there is going to be anything different in the case of this generation.

As of today there is no date available when this card will hit the shelves of your local retailer. We’d expect this to happen within the upcoming weeks and apart from that we’d also expect that Gigabyte is going to launch at least one more version of the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti.
