MSI spills the beans on its cadre of custom GTX 1080 Ti cards

A few weeks back, MSI was teasing a Gaming X version of Nvidia's best-on-the-block GeForce GTX 1080 Ti. Last week we spread the word that the company was planning on releasing multiple custom riffs on the GP102 monster, including three air-cooled varieties. The product planners at the dragon-branded manufacturer are keen on offering plenty of options to buyers, since each of those three custom cards can be bought in two variations. We'll examine the bunch in sort-of-ascending order of clock speed. All clocks described below refer to GPU speeds, as all cards sport the same 11GB of 11 GT/s GDDR5X memory.
