All-new VR-ready gaming graphics card outshines the competition with leveled-up performance and Aura RGB Lighting
ASUS Republic of Gamers (ROG) has announced Strix GeForce GTX 1080, an all-new VR-ready gaming graphics card with ultra-fast gaming performance, advanced cooling and reliability, and personalized styling.
Powered by the latest GeForce GTX 1080 graphics processing unit (GPU),clocked at 1936 MHz in OC mode, ROG Strix GeForce GTX 1080 delivers up to 6.5% faster performance in 3DMark Fire StrikeExtreme and 7.4% faster gaming performance in Hitman™.
ROG StrixGeForceGTX 1080is packed with exclusive ASUS technologies, including DirectCU III with a patented triple wing-blade 0dB fan designed to deliver maximum airflow for 30%-cooler and three times (3X) quieter performance, and ASUS FanConnect,which features GPU-controlled fan headers for targeted supplemental cooling.Industry-exclusiveAuto-Extreme technology with Super Alloy Power II components ensurespremium quality and reliability.
ROG Strix GeForce GTX 1080 enables complete gaming system personalization with Aura RGB Lighting and a modular shroud. A VR-friendly design with two HDMI ports lets gamers always keep a virtual reality device connected to their system for immersive gaming anytime. It also comes with GPU Tweak II with XSplitGamecaster for intuitive performance tweaking and instant gameplay streaming.
ROG Strix GeForce GTX 1080 is equipped with ASUS DirectCU III cooling technology, which features direct-GPU-contact heatpipes that transport more heat away from the GPU, outperforming reference designs and achieving up to 30% cooler gaming performance.DirectCU III technology includes triple 0dB fans, engineered with a patented wing-blade design that delivers maximum airflow and improves static pressure over the heatsink by 105%, while operating at threetimes (3X) quieter volume than reference cards.
ROG Strix GeForce GTX 1080 also comes with ASUS FanConnect technology. When gaming, the GPU often runs hotter than the CPU, but chassis fans usually only reference CPU temperatures, resulting in inefficient system cooling. ASUS FanConnect solves this issue with two 4-pin GPU-controlled headers that can be connected to system fans to provide targeted supplemental cooling for optimal thermal performance.
All ASUS graphics cards are now produced using Auto-Extreme technology, an industry-exclusive, 100% automated production process that incorporates premium materials to set a new standard of quality. Auto-Extreme technology ensures consistent graphics card quality as well as improved performance and longevity. This new manufacturing process is also environmentally friendly, eliminating harsh chemicals and reducing power consumption by 50%.
Super Alloy Power IIcomponents enhance efficiency, reduce power loss, provide two times (2X) reduced component buzzing while under full load, and achieve thermal levels that are approximately 50% cooler than previous designs for enhanced quality and reliability.
ASUS ROG Strix GeForce GTX 1080 will be availablein India from27th May, 2016for INR 60,000 plus taxes.
