MSI Radeon RX 570 Armor MK2 Graphics Card Pictured
MSI is apparently working on a revised version of its dual-fan Armor design for AMD's cards, dropping the white and black color scheme and opting for a more AMD-basic black and red one. The new versions, tentatively dubbed the Armor MK2 graphics cards, are expected to trickle through MSI's AMD graphics card lineup slowly, starting with the RX 570 and RX 560 graphics cards in their OC versions. The new color scheme, even if used to exhaustion already, does a little more than the previous Armor iteration in conveying the image of an AMD graphics card (black and red, anyone?), and the Armor MK2 models should feature an additional color and design upgrade to the existing backplate.

Their previous RX 5x0 series Armor cards were black and white. I guess the bottom line is, unless the PR said it, I don't think it has anything to do with AMD??? But, who knows.
The only thing that I don't like is the fan shroud. Looks like cheap Palit or Zotac plastic, rather than their previous slick TwinFrozr. Good thing I stashed 4 of those heatsinks in my closet =)
Now I'm even tempted to sell this puppy, cause I've already finished Witcher 3 and DOOM, and can probably double my money as a downpayment for future Volta.
