MSI today officially announced the new GTX 680 Twin Frozr /OC graphics card. The card is based on Nvidia's 28nm GeForce GTX 680 GPU, it has 2GB video memory and PCI Express Gen3 support. The new GTX 680 Twin Frozr /OC sports the company's Twin Frozr III thermal design, featuring dual 80mm Propeller Blade fans, a nickel-plated copper base heat sink and SuperPipe technology. MSI claims that this configuration is responsible for the card's low operating temperature noise - 22°C lower temperatures and 10.2dB quieter than the reference design.
