GALAX today introduced its more affordable custom-design GeForce GTX 1080 Ti graphics card, the EXOC White. The card combines an NVIDIA reference-design PCB with a custom-design cooling solution that's characterized by its milky white shroud and fan impellers, and a white back-plate. Under the shroud is a strong aluminium fin dual-stack heatsink that employs five 6 mm-thick copper heat pipes to distribute heat drawn directly from the GPU die, to two aluminium fin-stacks, which are ventilated by a pair of 90 mm fans, which stay off when the GPU is idling. The cooler also features white LED illumination.

The GALAX GTX 1080 Ti EXOC White ships with factory-overclocked speeds of 1531 MHz core, 1645 MHz GPU Boost, and an untouched 11 GHz (GDDR5X-effective) memory, against NVIDIA reference speeds of 1480/1582 MHz (core/boost). Galaxy's EU-specific brand, KFA2, also unveiled an identical version of this card under its name. The company didn't reveal pricing.

Very good looking card!!!

No white PCB. :(
I know right, if it had that it would be perfect! I have been playing around really wanting to do a completely white build.

umm NO, the card looks fine, it's all that cheap, flimsy white plastic that looks like doggypoopoo....

Can someone, anyone, please explain to me why it would be so friggin hard to make the PCB white for cryin out loud ? There are some mobos out there that are white, so why not GPU boards........

I too have had my eyes on a white case & mobo build for quite a while now, but it's not happening until all components inside it are white too...

I already have the white cable sets/rakes, LED lighting, fans and other small parts, and seem to recall seeing some white ram sticks somewhere lately, so I am real close to placing some orders.....

I'm thinking I will call it "Snowblinder" or the "White Biotch" when it's all done

The EX OC series uses a metal shroud, not plastic. This is the same shroud as previously used on the 1080 EX OC Sniper.

I recall one motherboard, made by Sapphire, that had a white finish. GPUs on the other hand that are white include some of MSI's lower to mid range cards (GTX 950 series) and Galax's Hall Of Fame series enthusiast cards. The latter of which has been using white PCBs since 2013, although Galax has been working on the process for mass produced white PCBs since 2009.

Edit: Oh yes I forgot the Z97 Sabertooth had a more expensive all-white option. It wasn't available for long so I forgot about it.
