Did nvidia turn "Tessilation" off on the new cooler's

Isn't this MORE tesselated?

The 980 is an infinite number of triangles giving a smooth surface, the 1080 is a low poly piece of shit

>bossman: give it some more angles, bitches love angles
>draftsman: ... like this? *turns down stl export vetex count*

I don't think tessellation means what you think it means.

A flat surface with more triangles stays equally as flat. Maybe the first cooler was supposed to be all angular but just not enough triangles to show it! Now it's got more triangles and is expressing its shape more accurately.


Why did they make it angular?
I don't get it.
AMD has a better design.
>inb4 AMD fan boy, I just like the stock cooler design.

Although I like the idea of things AMD does. Smaller cards, more power efficient memory which is very very fast and nice looking design. I'm not sure why they aren't doing better.

triangles bro, triangles

What gets me is nearly all builds will not see the bottom portion, so changing it was completely pointless.

That is exactly what tessellation does

They fail at marketing by not having larger tech youtubers shilling amd graphic cards.

No, they just pulled another Crysis 2.
