Gigabyte has recently launched their Stock Keeping Units or SKU products, the 11 GBPS GTX 1080 and the 9 GBPS GTX 1060 in the AORUS Xtreme variant. These new graphic card models are a bump up over the pre-existing 1060 and 1080 versions and should provide a performance increase in real-world tests.
