ALL ABOUT THAT RGB
GIGABYTE AORUS GEFORCE RTX 4080 MASTER
Unlike offerings like the WindForce or Gaming OC series, it stands out with its striking triple-ring RGB Halo lights that encircle each fan. In comparison, WindForce cards have a more understated look, while the Gaming OC series is more concerned with performance thanks to its aggressive factory overclocks.
That said, the Aorus Master is no slouch in the numbers department. It has a 2,550MHz boost clock, up from the 2,505MHz on the Founders Edition. It also utilises the WindForce cooling system, featuring three "bionic shark" fans, alternate spinning for lower turbulence, 12 composite copper heat pipes, and a large vapor chamber that comes in direct contact with the GPU.

Each fan also spins in the opposite direction as the one adjacent to it, reducing turbulence and increasing air pressure. On top of that, they support semi-passive cooling, which means they will stop spinning if the GPU load is low to reduce noise.
