Pictures of GeForce RTX 2080 Ti and RTX 2080 from MSI appear online
VideoCardz has published images of the MSI GeForce RTX 2080 Ti Gaming X Trio and the GeForce RTX 2080 Gaming X Trio. Cards from other manufacturers would appear on Monday, the day on which presales would also start.
The GeForce RTX 2080 Ti Gaming X Trio, judging by the published images, has 11GB of gddr6 memory, three fans, two eight-pin power connectors and a backplate that gives the impression of brushed aluminum. Also present are the new VirtualLink connector with type-c connection and NVLink. It is striking that an image of the Ti version of the upcoming map is already appearing. Previously, the Ti models appeared well after the first generation of video cards.
VideoCardz also shows an image of an MSI GeForce RTX 2080 Gaming X Trio. This card has 8GB gddr6 according to the box. The site reports that more RTX 2080 cards with proprietary cooling from Nvidia partners will appear on Monday. That would also be remarkable. In the last few generations of video cards, Nvidia first released its own Founders Edition models with reference cooling. Videocardz has a reputation for early publishing of video card images and specifications.
According to the Swedish site Nordic Hardware, it will be possible to place pre-orders for RTX 2080 cards from next Monday. The site would have this confirmed by web stores. The price would be between 7000 and 8000 Swedish crowns, converted between 668 and 763 euros. Nordic Hardware is talking about the RTX 2080, not the Ti version.
Update, 16.30: Also the images of RTX GeForce 2080 cards from Palit are online at Videocardz.
