Even more images of the new cooler shroud for the upcoming Pascal based NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 and GTX 1070 graphics cards have been leaked by Videocardz. This time, we get to see a clear look at the shroud while it was under production at a manufacturing company. NVIDIA Pascal GPUs for consumer products are being mass produced currently and will be available in June.

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 and GTX 1070 Cooler Shroud Features An Aggressive Look Compared To First Gen NVTTM Cooler
The cooler for the latest NVIDIA GeForce Pascal cards has been teased many times. We first reported about the cooler several weeks back. At that time, we came to saw two shrouds, one for the GeForce GTX 1080 and other for the GeForce GTX 1070. We were skeptical back then that these could be easily faked but the emergence of more pictures of the same cooler shrouds from various sources leads me to believe that we are looking at a real product or an actual part of an upcoming product in the case of the cooler shroud.
It can be seen in the pictures that the GeForce GTX 1080 and GeForce GTX 1070 coolers will adopt a aggressive cooler design. The entire body is assembled with four separate parts, each built with magnesium alloy and built with thedie-sinking method which focuses electrical discharges on the metal to shape a form. We also saw the CNC method being used earlier so it could be possible that multiple tech is being used to assemble the different parts.
Here's what seems to be the final version of the cooler shroud for the GeForce GTX 1080 graphics card.
The coolers have become more polygon looking and resemble the F117-A Nighthawk Stealth or a Lamborghini Aventador. In the latest pictures, we can clearly see that the NVIDIA logo is etched on to the body along with a GeForce GTX logo on the side which will be illuminated by LED in the final version of the card. The main shroud doesn't has the entire name listed.

The GTX 10*0 is missing since the shroud is being made for both 1080 cards and 1070. The final version of the shroud which was seen yesterday has a clear window on the front and comes with the same fan as the current NVTTM cooler.
