A quote from the article:
The Galax custom cooler looks rather bland. The pictures show the GTX 1080 reference PCB (above and below) to have a 6-phase VRM using DrMOS chips, taking power from a single 8-pin PCIe power connector. Cleverly Nvidia's reference design leaves room for AiB partners to add an extra power connector nearby. The card's 16 nm GP104 is flanked by 8 memory modules front and back, says VideoCardz. Both the GPU and memory chips are seen to be smaller than on the earlier generation (28nm GPU, DDR5 based) GTX 980 graphics card.
