As you can expect, MSI has tweaked the GTX 1080 Anniversary graphics card, with the GPU clocked at 1721/1860MHz for base/boost clocks, respectively. The same 8GB of GDDR5X is found on the card, and cooled by the full cover EK Predator liquid cooler.

The style of the card definitely makes an impression, and the cooler looks like quite unique. We have a sample on the way, so expect a closer look at it in the very near future.
