Based on NVIDIA's Pascal architecture and designed to handle the graphical demands of 4K gaming, the ZOTAC GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Mini Graphics Card provides major improvements in performance, memory bandwidth, and power efficiency over its predecessor, the high-performance Maxwell architecture. It also introduces innovative graphics features and technologies that redefine the computer as the platform for playing AAA games and taking full advantage of virtual reality via NVIDIA VRWorks.

The front panel of the card features a variety of outputs. There are three DisplayPort 1.4 outputs, an HDMI 2.0b output, and a DVI-D DL output. The GTX 1080 Ti is not just about high-resolution gaming. Computationally intensive programs can utilize the GPU's 3584 cores to accelerate tasks using CUDA or other APIs.

For cooling, ZOTAC implemented Dual Fan IceStorm cooling. It utilizes five 6mm heatpipes to maximize heat extraction from the core while the aluminum fin array disperses heat. It is also mounted with a 90mm fan and a 100mm fan that amplify airflow and reduce noise.

This graphics card features a gunmetal gray finish with white LED lighting.
