KEY
POINTS

Taipei, Taiwan (16th March, 2017) — ASUS
Republic of Gamers (ROG) today announced Strix GeForce® GTX 1080 Ti,
a VR-ready gaming graphics card with ultrafast gaming performance, advanced
cooling and reliability, and personalized styling. Powered by the latest NVIDIA®
GeForce GTX 1080 Ti graphics processing unit (GPU), clocked at 1708MHz boost
clock in OC mode, ROG Strix GeForce GTX 1080 Ti delivers up to 5 percent faster
performance in 3DMark Fire Strike Extreme and 5.7 percent faster gaming
performance in For Honor™.

ROG Strix
GeForce GTX 1080 Ti is packed with exclusive ASUS technologies, including
all-new MaxContact, an industry-first GPU cooling technology featuring an
enhanced copper heat-spreader that provides a 10-times (10X) flatter surface for
up to 2X more contact area with the GPU than traditional heat spreaders,
resulting in improved thermal transfer. Together with three patented wing-blade
0dB fans, ROG Strix GeForce GTX 1080 Ti delivers 30-percent-cooler and 3X-quieter
performance than reference cards. ASUS FanConnect II provides hybrid-controlled
fan headers and a comprehensive set of tuning options with GPU Tweak II to
optimize system cooling even further. Industry-exclusive Auto-Extreme
technology with 10+2 phase Super Alloy Power II components ensures premium
quality and reliability.

ROG Strix
GeForce GTX 1080 Ti comes with ASUS Aura Sync, RGB LED synchronization
technology that enables complete gaming system personalization. A VR-friendly
design with two HDMI ports lets gamers keep a VR headset connected to their
system for immersive, virtual-reality gaming anytime. GPU Tweak II software with
XSplit Gamecaster provides intuitive performance tweaking and instant gameplay
streaming.

Ultimate
cooling: MaxContact, patented wing-blade IP5X-certified fans, and ASUS
FanConnect II

ROG Strix
GeForce GTX 1080 Ti is equipped with MaxContact, an industry-first GPU cooling
technology featuring an enhanced copper heat-spreader that directly contacts
the GPU. MaxContact utilizes precision machining to provide a 10X-flatter surface
for up to 2X more contact area with the GPU than traditional heat spreaders,
resulting in improved thermal transfer. New ROG Strix graphics cards are also constructed
with 40 percent more heatsink surface area than previous dual-slot designs, further
improving heat dissipation for dramatically cooler and quieter performance.

A patented
wing-blade fan design delivers maximum air flow and 105-percent-greater static
pressure over the heatsink for more efficient cooling and up to 3X quieter
operation than reference cards. The fans are certified under the International
Protection Marking (IP code) as IP5X dust resistant for improved reliability and
a longer lifespan. This stringent certification process ensures ROG Strix
graphics cards provide optimal fan performance, even under severe operating conditions.
Additionally, 0dB technology stops the fan completely when the GPU temperature is
below a set level, letting gamers enjoy light gaming in complete silence.

ASUS
FanConnect II features two four-pin hybrid-controlled headers that can be
connected to both PWM and DC system fans for optimal system cooling. The
connected fans reference both the GPU and CPU, and operate automatically based
on the one with the higher temperature. A comprehensive set of tuning options
allow gamers to tune fan speeds for efficient cooling.

Premium quality and
reliability: Auto-Extreme technology and Super Alloy Power II components

All ASUS
graphics cards are now produced using Auto-Extreme technology, an
industry-exclusive, 100-percent-automated production process that incorporates
premium materials to set a new standard of quality, performance and longevity. Since the introduction of Auto-Extreme
technology in ASUS graphics cards, reliability has improved by 30 percent. This new manufacturing process is also
environmentally friendly, eliminating harsh chemicals and reducing power
consumption by 50 percent.

Super Alloy
Power II components with 10+2 phase power delivery enhance efficiency, reduce
power loss, reduce component buzzing by 50 percent under full load and achieve
thermal levels that are approximately 50 percent cooler than previous designs
for enhanced quality and reliability.

Game your way: Aura RGB
lighting and VR-friendly HDMI ports

ROG Strix
GeForce GTX 1080 Ti includes ASUS Aura RGB lighting on both the shroud and
backplate. This stunning LED illumination technology can display millions of
colors and six different effects. It also comes with ASUS Aura Sync, RGB LED
synchronization technology that enables complete gaming system personalization
when the graphics card is paired with an Aura-enabled gaming motherboard. ROG
Strix GeForce GTX 1080 Ti also has a VR-friendly design with two HDMI ports
that let gamers connect a VR headset and display at the same time, so they can
enjoy immersive virtual-reality experiences anytime without having to swap
cables.

Tweakable
and intuitive: GPU Tweak II with XSplit Gamecaster

Redesigned
with an intuitive user interface, GPU Tweak II makes gaming and overclocking
easier than ever, while retaining advanced options for seasoned overclockers.
With one click, the Gaming Booster function maximizes system performance by
removing redundant processes and allocating all available resources
automatically. An included one-year XSplit Gamecaster premium license — a $99
value — lets gamers easily stream or record gameplay via a convenient, in-game
overlay. The overlay also displays GPU clock speed, temperature, and VRM usage,
and has GPU Tweak II controls, so gamers can choose a gaming profile and boost
performance with just one click.

Full ASUS GeForce GTX
1080 Ti lineup: Turbo Series

The all-new
ASUS GeForce GTX 1080 Ti graphics-card lineup also includes ASUS Turbo GeForce
GTX 1080 Ti, which features a dual-ball-bearing fan for an up to 2X longer card
lifespan and a customizable backlit logo to let gamers personalize their system.
Auto-Extreme technology ensures premium quality and reliability, and VR-friendly
HDMI ports let gamers easily enjoy immersive virtual-reality experiences
anytime.
