14 DAY TRIAL // If you’re a hardcore PC gamer, you'd better hold off on anything you’re doing and listen to this. Gigabyte has just rolled out an impressive graphics kit that will give you something to dream about.
The company has introduced the GeForce GTX 980 WaterForce Tri-SLI graphics kit, which is as badass as it sounds. Tri-SLI means that the bundle packs three high-end GTX 980 graphics cards, which should boost performance levels through the roof.
Gigabyte outs a massive graphics kit
The kit also comes with a disruptive box with a water-cooling system plumbed and ready to rock. So, given the levels of cooling bestowed on the bundle, you should be able to go crazy with overclocking.
The enclosure comes equipped with a fan and each video card has a 120mm radiator of its own. The radiator enclosure benefits from a design that is meant to sustain high performance levels, better than most PC cases currently available on the market.
The cooling system is quite massive and takes advantage of a lot of pumps to keep everything running smoothly. The digital display located in the front opens up a temp gauge, and there are probably other gauges as well.
As a side note, the tubing system doesn’t go through the back of your PC, but instead through the top 5.25-inch drive bay, as you will be able to see in the gallery.
The kit allows multi-player on 4 separate displays
The system uses Gigabyte’s Flex display technology that can automatically detect and connect monitors, so users can enjoy multi-display gaming on up to 4 monitors at the same time via various output groups.
Interestingly enough, Gigabyte is not offering a lot of hard facts about the new system, but is letting the images of the graphics kit speak for themselves.
The GTX 980 video cards found inside are overclocked to be able to run at up to 1288MHz on the core, while memory speed is stock (7Gbps).
When it comes to pricing, you should expect to pay quite a lot of cash for the GPU bundle. Consider that a single GTX 980 costs $550 / €440.
So even if Gigabyte hasn't said anything about the official pricing specifications, we can only assume that the cards will be sold for around $2,000 / €1,601.
The official page for the GeForce GTX 980 WaterForce Tri-SLI graphics kit has already been set up, so we can only assume Gigabyte will announced the availability and pricing of this extreme gaming bundle soon enough.
