GeForce RTX 2080 ROG Strix OC 8192MB GDDR6 PCI-Express Graphics Card

The ASUS GeForce RTX 2080 ROG STRIX O8G Gaming represents the cutting edge of graphics card technology. The TU104 GPU of the RTX 2080 is built on the Turing architecture, utilises the new 12 nm FinFET manufacturing process in addition to GDDR6-VRAM to make for a significant leap forward in terms of speed when compared to the 10- series. The reason behind the name change to "GeForce RTX" lies in the deployment of Ray-Tracing Technology, this unlocks incredibly realistic lighting and shadow effects.

The Cooler Design and Clock Frequencies of the ASUS GeForce RTX 2080 ROG STRIX O8G Gaming

The base clock of the ASUS GeForce RTX 2080 ROG STRIX O8G Gaming operates at 1.515 MHz. Under load, the base clock can be automatically increased via GPU Boost 3.0 to up to 1.890 MHz. The innovative and incredibly fast GDDR6-VRAM is clocked at 7.000 MHz (14.000 MHz effective), meaning that the 8 GB of VRAM is sufficient for 4K-resolution gaming as well as making immersion in Virtual Reality a treat for the senses.

ASUS decided to refine the cooler design: the construction of the base of the heatsink has been optimised yet further, resulting in doubling of the total contact surface area. The new fans are now dust resistant in accordance with IP5X standards and this helps to provide a greater degree of reliability in the fans' rotational speeds as well as improved overall airflow. Moreover, ASUS has included a switch to allow users to select between Quiet- and Performance profiles by setting the BIOS of the graphics card - without having to resort to additional software.
