Everyone's eyes right now are on NVIDIA's GTX 1080 Ti graphics cards and AMD's RX 500 Series, but we've known for some time that NVIDIA is working on offering a revamp of the GTX 1080 and GTX 1060, based on the new GDDR5X memories that work at a frequency of 11GHz and the new GDDR5 memories that work at a frequency of 9GHz, respectively. EVGA has announced the arrival of the GTX 1080 FTW 2 and SC 2 with these new GDDR5X memories.

This review of these GTX 1080 graphics cards offer a slight performance improvement of these graphics cards, opting to incorporate the latest advances in the market. Those who had not yet opted to purchase a graphics card are in luck, because they will be able to buy these improved graphics cards. Thanks to this 10% performance improvement, it is possible to improve the bandwidth available to the graphics card and improves performance when working at high resolutions.

Currently EVGA is an exclusive partner of NVIDIA and is, if not the best partner of NVIDIA, of the best, offering very high quality solutions, with a high quality cooling system and this graphics card also offers a quality guarantee. The GTX 1080 FTW 2 and SC 2 graphics cards make use of the latest EVGA heatsink, the EVGA iCX, which efficiently and powerfully cools this graphics card and also offers excellent performance thanks to the internal sensors, which allows a most efficient of all the cooling potential of this cooler.

We do not know if these graphics cards with the new memories will suffer any improvement in terms of price, it is very likely that there will be no variation in the general price of the product, but until they start to flood the market, we cannot guarantee it.
