Is it just me or does this look terrible?

Personally i think it looks to have a face only a mother could love, and even then she would have to be high on crack.

Nvidia seems to have followed XFX's work ruining their cooler shrouds with triangles.

Not just you, it looks ridiculous. Works alright if you want your PC to look like a transformer or something like that. If anything they should make the reference cooler sleek, kinda like the Fury X and Fury Nano
 
Nahh, don't like it at all... Looks too much "blingy" in my opinion. Sleek designs is what it's all about!
 
They could have just made the current shroud a slightly darker colour and it would have done it.

The Titan style cooler looks sleek and professional but this looks like an 80's abortion.

What about keeping the same cooler as they did for the 700 & 900 series and just refine more instead of coming up with a new design.

IMO they were the best coolers that Nvidia as done.

I agree ^_^
 
No pictures of the 1080ti only the standard 80 and 70, I don't think we will see the 1080ti till 2017

Imy not fussed about the cooler it's all about waterblock and how soon they will come after release
 
I'm hoping these are just concept pieces because they are just awful, the reference vidia cards are perfection as they are. (If it ain't broke)
 
To me it looks like the Reference cooler we all know and like, had a party with a Asus ROG card and they made this.

It also looks like it belongs on the set of the Speed Racer film as it does remind me of some of the cars from that, or in a Hot Wheels box.

I don't mind it, but I do prefer the old reference cooler if this one indeed does turn out to be the cooler used on it.

Now if the June release date is accurate, then I would suspect that the shroud has been finalized and that they, will be probably getting ready to start issuing review samples within the next 2 - 3 weeks, so reviews go get done quickly and be ready for the release day.
