GALAX provides a fully custom PCB and massive power delivery system with 16+3-phase VRM, but the power requirements are huge: 8+8+8-pin... yes, triple 8-pin PCIe power connectors. Insanity. GALAX will be eyeing down ZOTAC's new GeForce GTX 1080 Ti AMP! Extreme Edition graphics card, which is the best GTX 1080 Ti out so far.

The triple 8-pin PCIe power connectors are insane to see on a graphics card, but for LN2 enthusiasts, this is a big deal.

We don't know detailed specifications like GPU and GDDR5X clock speeds, or price - but that will be coming soon.
