ASUS Republic of Gamers Announces Strix RX Vega64

VR-ready gaming graphics card with
leveled-up cooling performance and

ASUS Aura Sync lighting

Singapore, July 31, 2017 — ASUS Republic of Gamers
(ROG) today announced Strix RX Vega64, a VR-ready gaming graphics
card with ultrafast gaming performance, advanced cooling and reliability, and
personalized styling.

Strix RX Vega64 is
packed with exclusive ROG technologies, including MaxContact, an industry-first
GPU cooling technology featuring an enhanced copper heat-spreader that provides
a 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, Strix RX Vega64 delivers 30%-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 Super Alloy Power II components ensures premium quality and
reliability.

Strix RX Vega64 comes
with exclusive 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 without
swapping cables. GPU Tweak II software with XSplit Gamecaster provides
intuitive performance tweaking and instant gameplay streaming.

ROG Strix RX Vega64
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. Strix RX Vega64 is also constructed with
40% 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%-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 Strix RX Vega64
provides 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.

All ASUS and ASUS ROG graphics
cards are now produced using Auto-Extreme technology, an industry-exclusive,
100%-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%. This new manufacturing process is also
environmentally friendly, eliminating harsh chemicals and reducing power
consumption by 50%.

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

ROG Strix RX Vega64
comes with ASUS Aura Sync, an RGB LED-synchronization technology implemented on
both the shroud and backplate that enables complete gaming system
personalization when the graphics card is paired with an Aura-enabled gaming
motherboard. Strix RX Vega64 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.

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.

In addition to ROG
Strix RX Vega64, the all-new ASUS Radeon RX Vega graphics-card
lineup includes ASUS RX Vega64 Water Cooled Edition and ASUS RX Vega64
Air Cooled Edition, both featuring GPU Tweak II with XSplit Gamecaster.

Pricing and availability will be announced at a
later date.
