MSI GeForce GTX 1080 ARMOR 8G OC - Pros & Cons

beautifully designed and refreshingly simplistic
higher clock speeds
lower temperatures
and much better per watt performance
on retail shelves and perfect for standard

The card is otherwise using the same components
the PCI-e slot and avoid crossing inductors
long and connect into our dual logging thermocouple
AMD doesn t make a big showing today
of high temperatures and fan whine
relies on third-party cookies for advertisement
back plates are pointless
nor on MSI s website
it had no back plate
