SOLUTION
COOLING SYSTEM
AORUS provides the all-around cooling solution for all key components of the graphics card. We take care not only GPU but also VRAM and MOSFET, to ensure a stable overclock operation and longer life. WINDFORCE STACK 3X 100mm cooling system is the most innovative cooling solution that provides the most efficient thermal performance for the graphics card.
ALTERNATE SPINNING
The GIGABYTE patent "Alternate Spinning" is the only solution that can solve the turbulent airflow of three fans. The biggest problem with the three fans is turbulence. Since the fans rotate in the same direction, the airflow direction is opposite between the fans, which will cause turbulent airflow and reduce heat-dissipation efficiency. GIGABYTE turns the middle fan in the opposite direction, so that the airflow direction between the two fans is the same, reducing the turbulence and enhancing the airflow pressure.
3D ACTIVE FAN
The 3D Active Fan provides semi-passive cooling, and the fans will remain off when the GPU is in a low load or low power game. It allows gamers to enjoy gameplay in complete silence when the system is running light or idle. The LED fan indicator on the top of the graphics card provides an instant display of the fan status.
DOUBLE BALL BEARING
The double ball-bearing structure has better heat endurance and efficiency than sleeve structure.
ANGULAR FIN DESIGN
The angular and unequal fins height does not only channel the airflow through the fins and enlarge the contact surface but also results in a lower noise level and better cooling capacity.
HEAT PIPES DIRECT TOUCH
The shape of the pure copper heat pipe maximizes the direct contact area with the GPU, enhancing heat transfer. The heat pipe also covers the VRAM through a large metal plate contact to ensure proper cooling.
COMPOSITE HEAT PIPES
The composite heat pipes combine thermal conductivity and phase transition to efficiently manage the heat transfer between two solid interfaces which increases cooling capacity.
RGB Light Reinvented
The reinvented RGB lighting technology breaks through the traditional lighting restrictions. It can create a variety of incredible lighting effects to satisfy the visual enjoyment of each player.
EXTRA TWO HDMI PORTS
AORUS provides a total of seven video outputs compared to the reference card five video outputs. An additional two HDMI ports allow consumers to have greater flexibility when connecting to the display. You can choose 3x HDMI + 1x DisplayPort + 1x USB-C or 3x DisplayPort + 1x HDMI + 1x USB-C for your monitors without any adapters.
CONCEPT
Wings of Excellence
The falcon utilizes its powerful wings to soar through the skies and lock down its prey. The AORUS Core takes inspiration from the falcon's aerodynamic wings, incorporating a multi-layered design which features wing-shaped contours and also resembles the falcon's high velocity ascension and dive through the skies. With sleek and metallic armor, the AORUS Core symbolizes advancement in technology with its futuristic style.
PREMIUM BUILD
IN EVERY ASPECT
AORUS graphics are dedicated to perfect quality. Excellent circuit design with the top-grade materials, not only maximizes the performance of the GPU, but also maintains stable and long-life operation.
PROTECTIVE
METAL BACKPLATE
This glorious black metal backplate provides solid protection, strengthens the structure and inspires a true passion for gaming.
AEROSPACE-GRADE PCB COATING
FOR BEST PROTECTION
Dust -resistant shields the circuit board from dust, insects, dropped screws, drill shavings and abrasion. Moisture-resistant prevents unwanted conduction paths and board damage. Corrosion-resistant protects boards from environmental contaminants, such as salt spray, humidity and corrosion.
POWER INDICATORS
Be alert when PCI-E voltage is unstable with the smart power LED indicators. When experiencing any power abnormality, the indicator will alert gamers by flashing light.
Light On: Power cable disconnected.
Light Off: Stable power supply.
Blinking: Abnormal power supply.
EXTREME DURABILITY AND OVERCLOCKING
The graphics card uses the 12+2 power-phase design to allow the MOSFET to operate at lower temperatures, and over-temperature protection design and load balancing for each MOSFET, plus the Ultra Durable certified chokes and capacitors, to provide excellent performance and longer system life. (Reference card is 8+2 power phase).
FRIENDLY PCB DESIGN
THANKS TO FULLY AUTOMATED
PRODUCTION PROCESS
Fully automated production process ensures top quality of the circuit boards and eliminates sharp protrusions of the solder connectors seen on the conventional PCB surface. This friendly design prevents your hands from getting cut or inadvertently damaging components when making your build.
NVIDIA NVLink™ Support
Support for NVIDIA NVLink™ (NVIDIA SLI) technology, which combines two identical GPUs with an GeForce RTX NVLink Bridge to deliver the ultimate experience in 4K gaming or VR gaming. You can also adjust the light effect on the bridge with the AORUS Engine.
For deep learning
GeForce® RTX 2080 with 8G memory and 448 GB/s memory bandwidth has 2944 CUDA® Cores and hundreds of Tensor cores operating in parallel. It is the most suitable entry point for those who are developing A.I. technology. It doesn't only offer great cost-benefits, it can also save you time due to increased throughput and efficiency.
