Product information - Glacier RTX 2080Ti/2080/2070 Gigabyte Aorus GPU Full Water Block, DRGB - chrome

The Glacier RTX 2080Ti/2080/2070 Gigabyte Aorus from PHANTEKS is a premium and high-performance water block for custom water-cooling the PCBs of Gigabyte GeForce RTX 2080- and 2080 Ti Aorus graphics cards. Thanks to the optimised channel structure and nickel-plated copper block, efficient GPU cooling alongside the memory and VRM is assured. The heatsink also offers incredible looks with its blend of transparent acrylic glass and sandblasted aluminium.

The PHANTEKS Glacier RTX 2080Ti/2080/2070 Gigabyte Aorus Water Cooler at a Glance:

• Custom fit for the GeForce RTX 2080 and 2080 Ti Aorus graphics cards from Gigabyte
• Effective cooling performance via nickel-plated copper
• Impressive aesthetics thanks to aluminium and acrylic glass cover
• Four G1/4" ports for integration into custom loop
• Pre-installed digitally addressable RGB-LED lighting (15 LEDs, 3-Pin, 5VDG)

Aesthetics and Ports of the PHANTEKS Glacier RTX 2080Ti/2080/2070 Gigabyte Aorus Water Cooler

This is a full-block design which covers all relevant heat sources on the graphics card and provides incredibly effective cooling for the GPU, memory and VRM. The cooling is also particularly effective thanks to the use of copper as well as an optimised channel structure that provides optimal thermal conductivity.

The middle of the cover consists of transparent acrylic glass and the exterior is sandblasted aluminium. The connecting ports are G1/4" thread. Thanks to the flat design of the cooler, installing multiple graphics cards in SLI is a breeze.

The digitally addressable RGB-LED lighting is equipped with the same RGB connectors as are used in other PHANTEKS products and can be can be controlled via the RGB-LED controls (if present) of a PHANTEKS case. A 3-pin connector (5VDG) is present to enable connectivity with compatible motherboards. Compatibility with the Gigabyte RGB Fusion-, ASRock Polychrome Sync-, ASUS Aura Sync-, MSI Mystic Light- and Razer Chroma RGB-LED headers is also available.

The sealing rings of the PHANTEKS Glacier RTX 2080Ti/2080/2070 Gigabyte Aorus are made from highly durable Viton. The material also happens to be used in the aerospace industry due to ist exceptional durability in the face of high temperatures as well as ist resistance to high water pressures.

Why Cool My Graphics Card with Water?

Peak performance in the GPU segment typical comes with a caveat: excessive heat. This is due to the fact that getting the last drops of performance from the card's Compute Units requires all the dials to be turned to eleven, with the decisive advantage over competing products coming down to who has the superior cooling. Smaller nodes and more efficient layouts certainly help contain this problem, although they don't completely resolve it. Moreover, each generation pushes things to the max - and when this happens, there's really only one alternative: water!

This problem is made worse when factoring in the role of overclocking, critical temperatures can quickly be breached while pushing silicon to its limits. In short: If you want the highest possible clock frequencies with the lowest noise, watercooling is the solution for you. Aside from the usual components (radiator, pump, reservoir) a compatible cooler for NVIDIA Glacier RTX 2080Ti/2080/2070 Gigabyte Aorus graphics cards is needed - one like this model from water-cooling specialists PHANTEKS.

Note 1: For integration into a custom loop, parts and connectors may be required that are not included in the delivery. The original cooler must be removed prior to installation, which will invalidate the manufacturer's guarantee.

Note 2: As new graphics cards can change and the included accessories may also change over time in rare instances, please be sure to check the manufacturer's website to confirm whether you can use the PHANTEKS Glacier RTX 2080Ti/2080/2070 Gigabyte Aorus water cooler and which accessories come with the water block.

Hinweis 3: This Glacier GPU water cooler does not require an additional backplate, as the backplate of compatible graphics cards can be used.
