ASUS EKWB GeForce RTX 30 Series Graphics Cards Announced
ASUS announced ASUS EKWB GeForce RTX™ 30 Series graphics cards that are the product of a strategic collaboration between ASUS and EK and emphasize robust design, DIY convenience and high performance. Consisting of ASUS EKWB GeForce RTX 3070, 3080 and 3090 graphics cards, the series delivers an out-of-the-box solution for custom liquid-loop systems.
The precision of ASUS Auto-Extreme technology and stringent validation during manufacturing guarantees reliability, while the low hydraulic restriction split-flow cooling system maximizes thermal dissipation across critical components and demonstrates the very best of EK design. These high-powered solutions are elegantly combined to have a single-slot footprint, which enables compatibility with a wide range of chassis, including small-form-factor builds.
ASUS EKWB GeForce RTX 30 Series graphics cards are perfect for seasoned veterans who want a reliable all-in-one bundle for their latest build and for newcomers looking for a smooth start towards building their first custom loop.
The precision and reliability of ASUS engineering
Going the extra mile, the ASUS EKWB GeForce RTX 3090 and 3080 Series are built using Auto-Extreme technology to solder components to the PCB with extreme precision. All cards feature an aluminum backplate to prevent PCB flex and a single-slot mounting bracket that is made with 304 stainless steel for better corrosion resistance. Water-block mounting is handled by ASUS during the manufacturing process, so each graphics card is ready right out of the box to deliver high performance and reliability to customers.
Advanced EK water block design
EK has brought their legendary water cooling to the table with a block that features an efficient nickel-plated copper cold plate and EK’s split-flow cooling engine that is designed to keep key components cool, regardless of pump speed or flow configuration. The cast acrylic top reveals the coolant as it flows through the block, and an ARGB strip that spans the length of the card is Aura Sync-compatible for synchronizing with the rest of a build.
The best of both worlds
ASUS EKWB GeForce RTX 30 Series graphics cards are an elegant product of ASUS and EK, combining their specialties to synergize and create a brand new solution for the market that encourages custom water cooling. These graphics cards empower water cooling enthusiasts and newcomers with the key to unlocking the next level of custom loop innovation.
