GIGABYTE has unveiled their new lineup of AORUS RTX 20 Series GPUs, along with many Z390 AORUS Gaming Motherboards. We were at the launch event held in Delhi, India and experienced GIGABYTE’s newest gaming hardware. Let’s have a look!
AORUS GeForce RTX 2080 Ti, RTX 2080 GPUs

NVIDIA released their RTX 20 Series GPUs a while back and other manufacturers followed with their custom cards. Here we have four new AORUS Gaming GPUs by Gigabyte –
- AORUS GeForce RTX 2080 Ti XTREME 11G
- AORUS GeForce RTX 2080 Ti 11G
- AORUS GeForce RTX 2080 XTREME 8G
- AORUS GeForce RTX 2080 8G
These GPUs are factory overclocked and have beautiful aesthetics. The WINDFORCE 3x 100mm Fans work great to cool down the monstrous GPU. RGB Fusion is also present here with premium lighting on the backplate & throughout the GPU’s design.
Now here comes a killer feature, which GIGABYTE says is only available on AORUS RTX 20 Series GPUs – 7 video outputs. The GPU has 3x HDMI Ports, 3x Display Ports and a USB-C Port for unmatched connectivity. Finally, no dongles and adapters required for a triple monitor setup!
We tried out the new GPUs in action on PUBG. We weren’t very impressed with the performance. It gave an average of 120 fps on Ultra settings, with framerate sometimes dropping to 50 fps. But there’s much more room for improvement once developers optimize their games for NVIDIA’s exclusive Ray Tracing & DLSS Technologies.
More info about the exact clock speeds & specifications of the AORUS RTX 20 Series GPUs is coming soon.

GIGABYTE Z390 AORUS Gaming Motherboards
Intel released the Core i9-9900K, i7-8700K and i5-9600K CPUs and also the Z390 Chipset last week at their Fall Desktop Launch Event. This new chipset features a ton of new features including support for 10Gbps USB 3.1 Gen 2 Ports, integrated 802.11ac WiFi, Optane Memory, SDXC Memory Cards, Improved Intel CNVi Modules and out of the box support for Intel’s 9th Gen CPUs.

The GIGABYTE Z390 AORUS Gaming Motherboards will be a match made in heaven for Intel’s flagship Core i9-9900K, which has a boost clock of 5GHz. The motherboards are great for overclocking, with GIGABYTE claiming gamers can skyrocket their Core i9-9900K to 5GHz+ on all cores easily.
What makes the Z390 Motherboards great overclockers? They have a 12 Phase Digital VRM design, Fins-Array Technology, Direct Touch Heatpipe, 2x Copper PCBs design, Thickened thermal pads and Smart Fan 5 Technology and all of this results in phenomenal power management, heat dissipation and cooling performance.
RGB Fusion is another great feature which highly improves the aesthetics of the motherboard. The lighting can be controlled through Gigabyte’s RGB Fusion App and be customized with various profiles. The same app is used for personalizing all supported AORUS Gaming Peripherals & RGB Memory Kit if present.
The Quick Charge function has also been upgraded on the Z390 AORUS Gaming Motherboards with a USB TurboCharger. Apple’s Fast Charge & Qualcomm’s Quick Charge 3.0 Technology is now supported on this motherboard, so your devices can now charge up to 50% in 30 minutes of time.
The Z390 AORUS Master is Gigabyte’s flagship motherboard this year. This motherboard is one of the best gaming motherboards for a high-end gaming rig and comes with many exclusive features.
The motherboards feature up to three M.2 SSD Slots, which are based on PCIe Gen3 x4 specification. This allows for some crazy fast speeds if paired with an NVMe SSD. RAID 0 support is present as well.
Several Z390 AORUS Motherboards also have the ALC1220-VB Audio Engine, which has the ESS SABRE DAC & Studio Grade Audio Capacitors. This high-end audio engine allows gamers to drive powerful audiophile & gaming headphones from the motherboard itself.
Intel’s i219v Ethernet & The cFosSpeed technology is also found on these motherboards. Traffic Management of your Internet is much better with these, as it prioritizes internet traffic for games and VoIP apps like Discord over other things.
