Looks nice and angular although I really love the straight neutral look of the current shroud Nvidia have.

I'll be skipping GP104 anyway, Gonna wait for the full fat GP100 :)
 
Never really trust these picture leaks. Easily photoshopped or edited.

The whole angular design is a little off putting IMO to a lot of people *just look at the hate gamery angular designs get from a lot of people*, Looks too "gamery" which might be off putting to a lot of people, I think it looks ok personally but not something I would buy.

Nvidia's current design can easily fit into any type of case without it looking unprofessional etc... so I am hoping these are maybe just prototype designs or fakes.

But then you do compare it to OC3D where the regulars don't like 'Gaming' designs too much. The truth is that sells though.

Also, as good as the reference nvidia cards look, they don't really tend to fit most builds unless it's something awfully specific using a lot of metal and green.
 
It looks genuine enough.

Not sure if I like it though. Granted the stock design is due a refresh but this would not be my first choice.

If they simply made the stock shroud black like it is on the Titan X but with an RGB logo that would solve a lot of peoples wants from what I've seen on various forums.
 
Considering their current shroud is popular with a lot of people I'd be surprised if they changed it much considering they carried it over from the 780 to the 980
 
If this means we're going to get a more ricey version of the current titan-esque cooler I'm going to cry. Ah well nothing a clean full cover block can't fix I guess...
