Graphics Card Spotlight

ROG Strix GeForce RTX™ 4090 takes the best of the RTX 4090 and adds a devilishly efficient and quiet cooling system. This graphics card represents the best of what is currently available for creators and (wealthy) gamers alike, while taking care of our ears.

Under the hood we found one of the strongest VRMs we've ever seen.

ASUS is using a 24+4 phase VRM design on their card, using only the most premium components available. Unlike nearly all cards reviewed today, which default to 450 W power limit out of the box, the ASUS STRIX ticks at 500 W by default, which adds a little bit of extra headroom for the card to boost higher out of the box. In terms of cooling, the card can impress too.

ASUS strikes down with its flagship ROG Strix GeForce RTX 4090 OC Edition graphics card, where the design of the card takes center stage. You will not be looking away from this card, as it has a super-unique style that steps out of the regular-style aesthetic that the company has used in previous ROG Strix graphics cards.

As conclusion we can say that ASUS did it right with the new TUF Gaming OC; yet, the default extra performance is only 2, maybe 3%; however, if you are genuinely into silent operation and stunning appearance, then we can recommend this card above the founder edition at roughly the same price.

The ASUS STRIX Ampere cooler design is fantastic. It looks awesome from all sides, the many small improvements add up. The PCB design is the best of any RTX 3090 by far, and the VRM is super strong, using only premium components.

If you have been itching to get your hands on a new GPU and want one that will perfectly fit your arctic aesthetic then the ASUS ROG Strix RTX 3080 OC White Edition is the perfect card with its bright coating, excellent performance and low temperatures and wins our OC3D Extreme Aesthetics award.

We give this RTX 3070 TUF Gaming OC a Gold Cowcot , which is a very good 1440p gaming card, with real Ray Tracing capability. The RTX 3070 TUF Gaming OC has a very sober design, only the TUF logo is extravagant, with RGB LEDs that animate it.

The ASUS TUF RTX 3060 Ti puts exceptional custom touches on an exceptional 1440p graphics card. It's dead silent, stone cold, and comes with nice extras like a dual BIOS switch and an second HDMI 2.1 port.

We have no issue recommending this card to our readers as it seems to be built tough and performs better than pretty much every card on the market before the RTX 30 series came out!

If thermals are what you are worried about, this is a clear winner in our eyes! The ASUS Radeon RX 6800 XT STRIX OC Liquid Cooled is a truly impressive beast.

The ASUS ROG Strix GeForce RTX 3080 OC Edition is the best RTX 3080 yet. It also runs chilly, and doesn't need any manual OC for maximum performance. rnrnKick ass!

The RTX 3060 Ti series is clearly going to be a big hit with gamers. It’s the most affordable chipset in the new range so far, and the ASUS RTX 3060 Ti TUF Gaming edition is clearly one of the strongest we’ll see. It runs significantly cooler and quieter than its rivals, while still delivery extremely competitive performance and pricing.
