Japanese manufacturer Sycom has recently launched the RTX 4080 Super graphics card as part of its G-Master Hydro series. This cutting-edge graphics card comes with an integrated water-cooling solution, developed in partnership with industry leader Asetek, which helps to reduce both temperature and fan noise during high loads.
The RTX 4080 Super: A Cooler Option
The RTX 4080 Super stands out with its integrated water-cooling solution. This innovative cooling system, paired with two Noctua NF-A12x25 ULN cooling fans, ensures optimal temperature management even under heavy loads. Compared to traditional air-cooled graphics cards, Sycom claims that the hybrid cooling solution can reduce temperatures by 10-15°C while maintaining quieter operation in higher loads.
Aesthetic Appeal and Functionality
Visually, the RTX 4080 Super bears a striking resemblance to Renaissance’s Gallardo series, with a distinctive level on the side that allows users to determine the tilt of the graphics card. This attention to design detail adds both functionality and aesthetic appeal to the card, enhancing its overall appeal to gamers and enthusiasts alike.
Sycom and Asetek Partnership
Sycom’s partnership with Asetek further solidifies its position as a leading player in the gaming hardware industry. As one of Asetek’s complete machine partners, Sycom leverages the company’s integrated water cooling solutions in its G-Master Hydro series machines. This collaboration underscores Sycom’s commitment to delivering high-performance, reliable gaming systems tailored to the needs of enthusiasts.
