Not a fan of the design this time around, hoping for a water force or aorus equivalent water blocked card to show up, otherwise it's an FE card for me and an EK block for me.

i like to see it this way.

Pascal came along and they introduced triiple 100mm fans on a PCB that was smaller then rivals. Die didn't get as hot as Turing so cooling was just about fine. Booth looks and cooliing could improve.

Turing and the visual department wentr to town! R&D team was laid off and thermals was just aweful! easier to remove the middle fan.

Amp and R&D time was back and also asked to design the looks. fans and heatsink ...BANG OON! looks... if designed iitt based around a showbox wind tunnel! hahaha

Turing's ARGB fans toook a LOT of development from design to sooftware (which is getting a massive update) , why they dropped it with just added LED to the tip... no idea.

Aorus heatsink is about 30% extra on the tolld one as the middle fan is now on the same plane as the out fans. Other two versions is was dropped lower, then the heatsink to fan gap was also quite big. Why Wiindforce bested the Aorus at 2080s/80ti levels....

Surprised to see only dual 8 pin on the Aorus though....

*seems there's a difference between Master and Xtreme Aorus cards but we pages just reusing same details. Meant to be big it seems.

*** didnt realise Aorus fans have increased in size. from 3x 100mm to 2x 115mm & 1x 100mm

Yeah, well I'm in no rush to sell my 2080ti now they've just killed its value so could potentially wait though I'm hoping they really sort their software out if I do wait for one.

That said, again, I am very much considering an FE card and EK block this time around.

new Master/Xtreme isntt my cup of tea for looks, personally 2*** was much better. but the design into thermals would win me over easily . 115mm fans that wouldn't be wasted this time around. Got a feeling it will be one of the heaviest cards around though as the heatsink looks massive !
 
Any idea when the Aorus xtreme 3080 would be in stock? Trying to decide if it's worth waiting for that or just get the Nvidia one.
 
Hey guys. I have actually RTX 2080 Ti Waterforce Xtreme. How long to wait for 3090 Rtx Waterforce??). I dont wanna buy card with 3 fans. Only AIO is on my mind.

No set dates yet, but I would hope not too long. Sorry for the unhelpful answer but it's still a little early yet, obviously it'll be this year.
