Two Titans, or just one? And if so, which one? Now that the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 has landed, the GeForce GTX Titan X suddenly doesn't seem so titanic. For a tease of what NVIDIA's latest flagship offers, you can check out this review from our Malaysia team. Our own review will follow shortly with more details.

2/9

 
Take a good look at it, NVIDIA's flagship Pascal GPU and the first to feature GDDR5X memory and the 16nm FinFET manufacturing process. It's beautiful, if we may say so.

3/9

 
How big a fan of the green camp are you?

4/9

 
The entire card feels exceedingly well constructed. The backplate is also a really nice touch for a reference design, or should we say a Founders Edition card?

5/9

 
The new Founders Edition cards feature a more aggressive, angular design than previous reference cards.

6/9

 
The familiar blower-style fan makes a reappearance here, and the card continues to rely on a vapor chamber design for cooling.

7/9

 
Now here's a departure from the staid reference designs we're used to. As it turns out, we actually quite like those aggressive ridges.

8/9

 
You only need a single 8-pin PCIe connector to power this 180 watt card.

9/9

 
Finally, here's a look at the display outputs. With three DisplayPort 1.4 connectors, a single HDMI 2.0b port, and one dual-link DVI output, you're fully equipped to power your ultra-high resolution display of choice.
