by on19 October 2015

With TwinFrozr V cooler

MSI has rather silently launched yet another Nvidia GM200-based Geforce GTX 980 Ti graphics card, the "cheaper" MSI GTX 980 Ti Gaming LE (Lite Edition).

Still featuring the same TwinFrozr V dual-fan cooler as the previously released MSI GTX 980 Ti Gaming graphics card but with slight design changes, the new MSI Geforce GTX 980 Ti Gaming LE features a standard 1026MHz GPU base and 1114MHz GPU Boost clocks in OC mode, 1013/1102MHz in Gaming mode and 1000/1076MHz in Silent mode. It also still packs 6GB of GDDR5 memory paired up with a 384-bit memory interface and clocked at 7010MHz.

As all Geforce GTX 980 Ti graphics cards on the market, the MSI GTX 980 Ti Gaming LE is also based on Nvidia's GM200 GPU with 2816 CUDA cores, 176 TMUs and 96 ROPs.

The MSI GTX 980 Ti Gaming LE uses MSI's well known Twin Frozr V cooler with Zero Frozr cooler mode, which turns off the fans when the card is in idle mode and also feature an MSI LED logo at the top which can light up in five unique lighting modes. It also comes with a backplate.

While MSI did not release any details regarding th price or the availability date, we found the new GTX 980 Ti Gaming LE listed at Newegg.com with a price set at US $659.99, making it US $20 cheaper than standard MSI GTX 980 Ti Gaming graphics card.

MSI also did a similar thing with the Geforce GTX 980 and it appears that GTX 980 Gaming LE 4GB was selling quite good.
