Asus has pulled the wraps off its flagship GPU at CES 2019; the liquid-and-air cooled GeForce ROG Matrix RTX 2080 Ti. The company reserves the Matrix branding for only its extreme high-end GPUs, and this one is certainly worthy of that title. The GPU sandwiches a closed-loop cooling apparatus dubbed Infinity Loop between the PCB and a three fan array, with the liquid handling the cooling of the GPU and memory, and the fans cooling the radiator and VRMs.
The pump, tubing, and radiator are all hidden behind the fan assembly, and despite all this cooling technology the GPU is still only a three-slot affair, making it nearly same size as some high-end air-cooled versions of this GPU. Asus claims the integrated closed loop cooler runs quieter than a GPU with an external 120mm radiator, and that its performance nearly matches that of a GPU with a 240mm radiator.
