The Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080 graphics card is designed especially for enthusiast computer gamers. The use of tessellated surfaces cleverly imitates the polygonal shape of computer graphics. The cast aluminum body is machine finished and heat-treated to provide rigidity and durability as well as very good heat dissipation. The metal baseplate, back cover, and low-profile components assure unobstructed venting channels for reduced air resistance and better cooling, all while conforming to the strict size constraints of the PC industry. The illuminated logo provides a striking appearance inside a windowed chassis and also serves as status indicator.
