Planning a ncase m1 v5 build and looking for good GTX 1080 blower/rear-exhaust options. I know they aren't available yet, but the product details are out one the websites of most manufacturers (Asus, MSI, EVGA, etc.).

My question is that on MSI's website they list the GEFORCE® GTX 1080 AERO 8G OC as "great for 4k" but then say "Display Output (Max Resolution) 2560 x 1600." Is this an error, or am I just missing something? I'm new to PC building so it's possible.

Also interested in what people think the best option for a GTX 1080 in a ncase m1 would be. I'm ruling out anything liquid since I want to be able to transport this on a plane without TSA issues.

Answering my own question... I contacted MSI support and they responded with:

"Dear customer, the info we will change it. Thanks!"

So, I'm assuming that means it was an error. Self high-five.
