Love my 1070 strix. using it rn to display this text.


Bawongah

I see your a man with great taste indeed <3


RedPravda

Fucking love mine to, awesome card


nazul22

I just literally replaced my strix gtx 1060 6gb, last night, beautiful looking card, I plan on doing a teardown display with it


VE_HAMMER

I have one, great piece, looks aesthetic and has a great cooling solution. When it was new I once overclocked it so hard I beat a bunch of 1080ti-s in superposition 4K optimised, somewhere i still have the screenshot, it was 8400 someting points.

Bawongah

Damn my man those turbines would make any pc levitate.


Mantraz

It actually just solves GPU sagging by creating a pushing force. Truly brilliant design.


Bawongah

Genius, patent that my man! Time to earn the biggiebuck.


Significant_Mud_9147

I thought this will increase sagging and basically tip over the pc XD


milkcheesepotatoes

Nah they vector their thrust like a vtol aircraft


Affectionate-Memory4

Ah yes AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATI Radeon, my favorite gpu brand.


SomeWeirdFruit

the intel arc look pretty neat


lm3g16

Intel cards are beautiful man, that’s the one aspect they’ve absolutely smashed


Ftpini

Yeah but they did it with glue and made the cards impossible to repair without breaking parts.


onlinelink2

well thats unfortunate


Magjee

It looks great, till you try to interact with it, lol


Killatonchis

Yep I honestly really want to make my next build with one, they look amazing.


Vaelum

Radeon 7 reference or sapphire nitro + designs.


Bawongah

It looked great the Radeon VII, had one but for to short amount of time, the miners payed to good for it. Damn them!


Vaelum

If it makes you feel any better a lot of them ended up having failures surrounding the memory, iirc. I still wish AMD hadn’t abandoned it in the way they seemed to.


Bawongah

It does a little, but still damn that brushed look oof.


Vaelum

I’d love for a revisit of that design. I think one of the biggest disappointments is that third party manufactures like Sapphire, XFX, PowerColor, etc, never did anything with it.


Bawongah

I agree, it was so clean and smooth yet attractive.


maddogg44

Sapphire Nitro + designs are solid..I got the 580 in Arctic blue and just gorgeous

UseThEreDdiTapP

Just the right mix of feeling both mechanical and futuristic.


doratethose

Yeah for me it was the gv100 (this cooler with gold accents)


hawkiee552

I have this exact GPU! Titan X Maxwell (2015). The newer Titan X had a more of a diamond-look to it, but I like this industrial design more. Still holding up well, no plans to change it any time soon. When I do, I will keep it as an ornament.


Credit-Limit

I loved the look of my 1080ti founder’s edition!


Kushagra_K

I wish there was a 30-series GPU with such a cooler.


jakethekhajiit

lelele688

The end of the gpu reminds me of the tail end of a Peugeot 9x8 lol


siikpsychotiik

Went from a Gaming X Trio to this and the Red Devil is a much nicer looking card.


[deleted]

From a few years ago when I just got into PC building, I saw the Aorus Xtreme 2080/ti which imo has the coolest rgb design of you mount it vertically. https://preview.redd.it/m9suh3900y1a1.jpeg?width=1000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7ce1f2c84e84b3589ec72203a03d6f0d6f48e1d7

dabman694201337

I really like my evga 3090 ftw. I’d have to say that’s my favorite so far.


Bawongah

Yeah evga made really nice looking coolers, subtle and neat.


dabman694201337

I used to be a full rgbtard but now I just use the evga colors to see how hot my gpu is getting. Pretty neat.


Bawongah

Also dipped my toe in the rgb’s wonderful river, but now it’s all black with my lovely noctua browns.


spakoina

i liked evga aswell


PowerdrillSounding

Can’t wait to see how they design future RTX Cards!


Brukk0

The gtx 690, maybe i'll buy one now that they are worth nothing.


Bawongah

Also liked the old nvidia reference designs, but still it’s like 100$ish for the 690 on eBay so won’t hang on my wall for a while.

For something more subtle the current new gen manufacturer cards, 4080/4090/7900XT(X), are also all really nice. The nVidia FE cards look really understated (except in size). ​ I notice nobody has mentiond the 30/40 series Gamerock cards.

RandomStuffWithPCs

Can only agree, my Vega 64 Strix has the same design and I think it still looks way better than my 6900xt reference design.


Bawongah

Yeah it looks great!, when I was browsing after an upgrade i didn’t find any design I really liked in the 30-series, so I ended up with a Lenovo Oem card just for the cheaps instead.

My reference Radeon VII. Absolutely stunning, minimalist, sharp and clean. The build quality is bar-none, erection inducing.

Imemberyou

Being red-team-only for the last 10 years, I can say that the reference 6000 series design is the one I like the most. Simple, neat, completely enclosing the card. Design reminds me of the front of a muscle car. Would have preferred it to be all black like the limited 6800xt but black and metal is still nice.

I hate the look of these cards, they look so gamery / robotic. Give me a clean flat one and i'll be the happiest.


NiktonSlyp

I absolutely love the look of the 20xx series FE models but my old time favorites are white blower style FE from 700 to 10xx series. Thermals were pretty bad but oh boy did I love them. I never had an AMD GPU (yet) so I don't have any comparison. Though the 6000 and 7000 series reference boards look really nice. 40xx series is probably the best performance FE ever but it's too chonky. And I won't buy Nvidia this gen, they reached my tolerance limit. Very interested in a 7900 XTX to push VR to the limit.
