DESIGN CONCEPT
In the AORUS dimension, everything is constructed digitally. The lighting and patterns are mapped onto the products with an efficient, free flowing style.
Welcome to the Digital Code Era.
WATERFORCE COOLING SYSTEM
The ideal way for PC enthusiasts to enter the world of water cooling without having to deal with complicated installations. AORUS provides an all-round cooling solution as critical parts like GPU, VRAM and MOSFET are actively cooled to ensure system stability under high overclocks.
EASY INSTALLATION
With the pre-assembled water pipe and pump, users can easily install the graphics card without leakage concerns.
Optimized 240mm ALUMINUM RADIATOR
The double-sized radiators and fins increase the surface area and volume for thermal, making the graphics card more stable and cool under high overclocks.
2X 120MM ARGB FANS
The dual fans can generate more airflow to better heat dissipation, delivering a powerful cooling and quiet gaming experience. The ARGB fans lights also can synchronize with the graphics card for various light effects via RGB FUSION 2.0.
DOUBLE BALL BEARING
The double ball bearing structure has better heat endurance and efficiency than sleeve structure.
LARGE COPPER BASE PLATE
The copper base plate directly touches the GPU, VRAM and other critical parts. Coupled with heat pipes, the heat can be transferred to the liquid cooling zone for achieving enhanced heat dissipation.
BRAIDED FEP TUBES
With nearly no moisture absorption, high thermal stability and high pressure tolerance, the sturdy FEP tubes greatly enhance product life and durability.
RGB FUSION 2.0
With 16.7M customizable color options and numerous lighting effects, you can choose lighting effects or synchronize with other AORUS devices.
PERFORMANCE
GeForce RTX 3080 with 10GB memory and 760 GB/s memory bandwidth has 8704 CUDA® Cores, 2nd gen ray tracing cores and 3rd gen tensor cores operating in parallel. It is the most suitable solution for those who are gaming, rendering, and developing A.I. technology.
METAL BACK PLATE
The metal back plate not only provides an aesthetical shape, but also enhances the structure of the graphics card to provide complete protection.
6 OUTPUTS
You can choose 3xHDMI or 3xDP for your monitors without any adaptors.
POWER INDICATORS
When experiencing any power supply abnormality, the indicator will alert gamers by flashing light.
EXCELLENCE
Excellent circuit design with the top-grade materials, not only maximizes the excellence of the GPU, but also maintains stable and long-life operation.
EXTREME
OVERCLOCKING
The graphics card uses the better power phase design to allow the MOSFET to operate at lower temperature, and over-temperature protection design and load balancing for each MOSFET.
ULTRA
DURABILITY
The Ultra Durable certified chokes and capacitors, to provide excellent performance and longer system life.
PCB
COATING
Dust resistant – shields from dust, insects, dropped screws, drill shavings, and abrasion.
Moisture resistant – prevents unwanted conduction paths and board damage.
Corrosion resistant – protects from salt spray, humidity, and corrosion.
FRIENDLY
PCB DESIGN
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.
INTUITIVE
AORUS ENGINE
Clock speeds, voltage, fan excellence, and power target can be monitored and tuned in real-time according to your own preference through this intuitive interface.
Pros: -One of the best performing 3080s on the market
Cons: AIO pump is not quiet nor are the fans so don’t expect to have your computer run relatively quiet at idle.
Memory temps are just as bad as FE and other AIOs despite being water cooled with a large copper plate covering all components with pads.
Overall Review: I was getting max memory tempurates of 106C while gaming with this card. I don’t mine and have to assume that if I did the memory would easily be throttling at 110c.
As you can see from the attached photo when I pulled the card apart to put better pads on the memory and between the back of the PCB and the metal back plate the stock pads for the GDDR6x were either missing as seen on the top module or misaligned as seen on the modules to the right of the GPU die.
This card for some reason doesn’t have pads between the back of the PCB and the metal back plate and while not entirely necessary you may as well put them on if you are taking the card apart anyway.
Thermals on the memory went from 106C to 84C max temps after swapping out the pads.
Luckily I’m in the US so putting thermal pads on the memory won’t void my warranty but if you are outside the US good luck.
Getting a card with missing pads from the factory is a big yikes and gives me zero confidence in Gigabyte quality control.
