KFA2 Intros GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER EX Gamer in Pink and White Trims

KFA2, the brand owned by Galax for specific markets in Europe, announced its GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER EX Gamer graphics card in two new trims, Pink, and White. The regular RTX 4070 SUPER EX Gamer the company launched in January comes in black. The Pink trim involves a bubblegum pink shade taking over the cooler shroud and metal backplate. Ditto with the white trim. The PCB underneath both cards remains black, but since the cooling solution dwarfs it, it most remains out of sight when installed.

Both cards feature frosted acrylic fan impellers, with addressable RGB LEDs located in the fan hubs. Besides the illuminated fans, the GeForce RTX logo on top of the card comes with RGB LED illumination. Both cards come with a mobile app-based control for the lighting. This app talks to a service installed in your PC over the Internet, which interacts with the graphics card. Much like the regular black RTX 4070 SUPER EX Gamer, the two cards stick with NVIDIA-reference clock speeds of 2475 MHz boost for the GPU, and 21 Gbps (GDDR6X-effective) for the memory. KFA2 is pricing both the Pink and White variants at 679€ including taxes, a 20€ premium over the regular black EX Gamer card.

KFA2 Intros GeForce RTX 3050 6GB EX Graphics Card

KFA2, the EU-focused brand of graphics cards by Galax, today released the GeForce RTX 3050 6 GB EX, a somewhat premium take on the recently released entry-level GPU by NVIDIA. The KFA2 EX features a spruced up aluminium fin-stack heatsink that uses a flattened copper heatpipe to make broader contact with the GPU, and spread the heat better across the fin-stack. The 22.4 cm long card also has a couple of premium touches, such as a metal backplate, and RGB LED lighting. The lighting setup includes physical switch on the tail end of the card, with which you can turn it off. Also featured is idle fan-stop. The card offers a tiny factory overclock of 1485 MHz boost, compared to 1475 MHz reference. It sticks with PCIe slot power, there are no additional power connectors.

NVIDIA launched the GeForce RTX 3050 6 GB as its new entry level GPU. It is based on the older "Ampere" graphics architecture, and the 8 nm "GA107" silicon. It enables 18 out of 20 streaming multiprocessors physically present, which work out to 2,304 CUDA cores, 72 Tensor cores, 18 RT cores, 72 TMUs, and 32 ROPs. The 6 GB of 14 Gbps GDDR6 memory is spread across a narrower 96-bit memory bus than the one found in the original RTX 3050 8 GB. KFA2 is pricing the RTX 3050 6 GB EX at €199 including taxes.

Alphacool Announces new Core Water Block for GeForce RTX 4090 Reference and Founders Designs

The Core product line takes shape with the new coolers in the usual high quality, excellent performance and functional design language. The heart of the copper cooler is an assembly of connector terminal and cooler, which is milled from one piece of copper. The fine workmanship combined with the hard and resistant chrome plating of the entire copper cooler meet the highest quality standards. The brass G1/4" threads integrated on both sides, also chrome-plated, stand out visually striking from the terminal and are one of the key points of the new design language that will be present in all products of the Core series.

The aluminium backplate matched to the design together with the terminal forms a single unit. It convinces with clear and homogeneous optics on the back of the cooler. The individually controllable lighting consists of digitally addressable RGB LEDs and enables the even and colorful illumination of the entire cooler.

GALAX RTX 4090 "Ada" Custom Design Leaked

Here's the first look at what is possibly a premium custom-design GeForce RTX 4090 "Ada" graphics card by GALAX, a design the company will also sell under the KFA2 brand in select markets. The 4-slot monstrosity features not just three large fans where you'd expect them, but a fourth one at the backplate, arranged in a push-pull configuration with the third fan. This fan protrudes a whole 1 slot above the backplate, and could potentially cause clearance issues with memory slots on some motherboards. The entire topside and front of the card is laced with acrylic ARGB diffusers. The card pulls power from a single 12+4 pin 12VHPWR connector.

GALAX Intros GeForce RTX 2060 12GB 1-Click OC Graphics Card

GALAX today joined other NVIDIA board partners in launching its custom-design GeForce RTX 2060 12 GB graphics card. NVIDIA re-launched the RTX 2060, based on the "Turing" graphics architecture, with double the memory amount and a few more CUDA cores—2,176 vs. 1,920 on the original. This is NVIDIA's response to the Radeon RX 6600. The custom-design board by GALAX, which will also be sold under the KFA2 brand in certain markets, features an aluminium fin-stack heatsink with direct-touch heat-pipes, and a pair of 90 mm fans that stay off when the card is idling. It pulls power from a single 8-pin PCIe power connector. The card is factory-overclocked with 1695 MHz GPU Boost, compared to 1650 MHz NVIDIA reference, but a software-based 1-click OC mode can bump up the boost clock to 1710 MHz. The memory ticks at 14 Gbps (GDDR6-effective). The company didn't reveal pricing.

GALAX Unveils Shadow Line of AIO CPU Coolers

GALAX today announced the Shadow line of all-in-one liquid CPU coolers, beginning with the Shadow 360R. From the looks of it, this cooler bears visual similarities to the GamerStorm Castle line of coolers by DeepCool, which is probably its OEM supplier. The pump-block features an ARGB LED diffuser, as do the three included 120 mm fans. These turn between 800 to 1,800 RPM, pushing up to 58.5 CFM of airflow, at 2.08 mm H₂O static pressure. The radiator appears to feature a fill-port. The company is beginning to sell these in China for the equivalent of 100€, although it remains to be seen if they're released under the KFA2 brand elsewhere.

GALAX Intros GeForce RTX 2070 Super EX Pink Edition

GALAX today introduced the GeForce RTX 2070 Super EX Pink Edition (model: 27ISL6MD71PE). A cosmetic spin on the company's RTX 2070 Super EX (1-click OC) graphics card, the Pink Edition sees some interesting design choices by GALAX: the PCB is now all-white, much like on the company's high-end HOF Edition cards. The metal cooler shroud and back-plate are pink. The display- and power connectors are white. The fans feature pink impeller hub caps. Although studded with RGB LEDs capable of any color you specify via software, the fans shine hot pink out of the box.

The GALAX GeForce RTX 2070 EX Pink Edition is a factory-overclocked graphics card that ticks at 1815 MHz GPU Boost (vs. 1770 MHz reference). A software based "1-click OC" mode runs it even faster, at 1830 MHz. The memory is left untouched at 14 Gbps (GDDR6-effective). The card draws power from a combination of 8-pin and 6-pin PCIe power connectors. Display outputs include three DisplayPort 1.4a and one HDMI 2.0b. Based on the 12 nm "TU104" silicon, the RTX 2070 Super features 2,560 "Turing" CUDA cores, 160 TMUs, 64 ROPs, and a 256-bit wide GDDR6 memory interface, holding 8 GB of memory.

Next up is the GALAX GTX 1650 GDDR6 Prodigy, a cost-effective graphics card designed for gaming i-cafes. This card features a simple aluminium fan-heatsink with radially-projecting fins (similar to Intel stock CPU coolers); ventilated by a single 80 mm fan. The card ticks at NVIDIA-reference clock speeds of 1590 MHz GPU Boost. Lastly, there's the GTX 1650 GDDR6 LP, which as the name might suggest, is a half-height (low-profile) graphics card targeted at SFF or HTPC builds. The card features a chunky 2-slot thick monoblock aluminium heatsink that's ventilated by a pair of 40 mm fans. All four cards run their GDDR6 memory at 12 Gbps, and feature a common set of display connectors: one each of dual-link DVI-D, HDMI 2.0b, and DisplayPort 1.4.

GALAX HOF E16 is a Monstrous M.2 PCIe Gen 4 SSD Dressed in White

With AMD "Valhalla" desktop platform mainstreaming PCI-Express gen 4.0, several SSD manufacturers put out their first products that can take advantage of it, this Computex. The drive with the highest on-paper transfer rates has to be the HOF E16 from GALAX, which will also be sold under the Galaxy and KFA2 brands in various markets. Built in the M.2-2280 form-factor, the drive features an M.2 PCI-Express 4.0 x4 host interface (backwards-compatible with older PCIe generations), with 64 Gbps of interface bandwidth on tap. The drive comes in capacities of 1 TB, 2 TB, and segment-first 4 TB.

The HOF E16 uses the same heatsink GALAX deployed on the older generation of HOF M.2. A block of aluminium pulls heat from the drive's controller, while a flattened copper heat-pipe spreads heat across. The drive is based on the new Phison E16 controller that's cushioned by an LPDDR4 DRAM chip, and wired to 96-layer 3D TLC NAND flash memory. The drive offers sequential read speeds of up to 4,800 MB/s, and sequential writes of up to 4,000 MB/s. 4K random reads are rated at up to 750,000 IOPS, and 4K random writes up to 700,000 IOPS.

Galaxy Unveils HOF M.2 PCIe SSD with Heat-pipe Based Heatsink

High-end M.2 NVMe SSDs are beginning to come with integrated heatsinks as overheating controllers impact sustained performance. The latest such drive is a new edition of the Hall of Fame (HOF) M.2 PCIe series from Galaxy, which come with a chunky aluminium heatsink, only this one isn't just another hunk of metal. This heatsink uses a flattened copper heat pipe to pull heat from the drive's hot components and spread it evenly along both sides of the aluminium block. The heat pipe makes direct contact with the drive's Phison PS5012-E12 8-channel controller and Toshiba-made 64-layer 3D TLC NAND flash chips.

The heatsink wraps around sideways of the drive and so it may not be a perfect fit for NVMe RAID cards with multiple M.2 slots side-by-side, although for most applications, such as the M.2 slot on the motherboard, the design could click. The drive comes in capacities of 512 GB, 1 TB, and 2 TB. All three models offer sequential read speeds of up to 3400 MB/s. The 1 TB and 2 TB models write at up to 2800 MB/s, while the 512 GB writes at up to 2000 MB/s. 4K random access performance of the 2 TB and 1 TB models are rated at up to 400,000 IOPS reads with up to 600,000 IOPS writes; and up to 400,000 IOPS reads with up to 540,000 IOPS writes for the 512 GB model. The drive is initially being launched in China, and could make its way to western markets under the Galax and KFA2 brands later this year.

KFA2 Goes All White with GeForce RTX 2080 Ti HOF

The EU-specific brand of GALAX, KFA2 today rolled out its latest flagship graphics card in the old continent, the GeForce RTX 2080 Ti Hall of Fame (HOF). In true tradition of this brand extension, the card is all-white - including its cooler shroud, fans, back-plate, and the PCB. The custom-design PCB pulls power from a trio of 8-pin PCIe power connectors located at the tail-end of the card rather than on top of it, and conditions it using a 16+3 phase VRM, to support an out-of-the-box speed of 1635 MHz boost, which isn't much higher than the NVIDIA-reference 1545 MHz, but is probably set to leave you a lot of manual OC headroom to play with. The memory is unchanged at 14 Gbps (GDDR6 effective).

The cooling solution uses a large aluminium twin-stack heatsink to which heat drawn from the GPU is fed to the fin-stacks by six nickel-plated copper heat pipes that make direct contact at the base. Additional contact points in the heatsink pull heat from the memory chips and MOSFETs. Three 100 mm fans ventilate the heatsink. The top of the card features an LCD matrix display that can put out live monitoring of temperature, fan-speed, and voltages. When interfaced with an app, it can also put out other details such as clock-speeds and memory utilization. The back-light illumination to this display, along with an ornament on the back-plate, are RGB LED illuminated. The card features two BIOS ROMs switchable via a push-switch. Both BIOSes run the card at the same clock-speeds, however, the second BIOS ramps up power-limit and stiffens the fan-curve. Available now, the KFA2 GeForce RTX 2080 Ti HOF is priced at 1,899€ (including VAT).

KFA2 GeForce GT 1030 EXOC White Pictured, Detailed

AIB partner for NVIDIA KFA2 is renowned for the design (often polarizing) of its graphics cards, and the company seems to carry white quite close to its heart (something I don't have a problem with, actually.) Now, the company has seemingly confirmed incoming retail availability of NVIDIA's leaked GT 1030 graphics cards, with an EXOC edition of the card in question.

The EXOC white edition by KFA2 is factory overclocked out of the box, and the packaging confirms its a 2GB GDDR5 model with 64-bit memory bus. According to the source, El Chapuzas Informatico, this card is equipped with a 16nm GP108 GPU with 384 CUDA cores (not the 512 we previously reported.) This makes sense, however, as this means NVIDIA can easily carve a GT 1040 SKU from the supposed 512 CUDA-cores base design of the GP108 chip. The base clock for the KFA2 GT 1030 EXOC is 1252 MHz, with a 1506 MHz boost clock. This card is expected to go on sale for around 80€ ($87 direct conversion, but more likely a $69 price-tag.)

KFA2 Announces the Fastest GTX 1080 Ti - The HOF "8 Pack" Edition

Premium graphics cards these days are a dime a dozen, and KFA2 seems to be a well-regarded AIB for some more exquisite designs based on NVIDIA graphics chips. Together with OverclockersUK, KFA2 is announcing the most premium of premium GTX 1080 Ti, the Hall of Fame "8 Pack Edition", which features a full custom design with KFA2's trademark aesthetics, triple 8-pin power connectors, triple-fan and triple-slot cooler an LCD display, and the highest stock clocks from any GTX 1080 Ti model so far - a base 1645 MHz with 1759 MHz boost and 1425 MHz memory clocks.

According to OverclockersUK, due to low yields of the cherry-picked GPUs that power these graphics cards, only 5 to 10 units are expected to be sold each month. The cards are currently available for pre-order with expected shipping date of May 26th... For the clean sum of £950. A premium pricing for a premium solution, indeed. If that pricing is a little to bold for you, you can opt for an "8 Pack Approved" graphics card, which is essentially the same package on a GPU with a lower 1607 MHz base, 1721 MHz boost, and 1376 MHz memory clocks. This one should retail for a more respectful £859.99.

GALAX and KFA2 Intro GeForce GTX 1080 Ti EXOC White Graphics Card

GALAX today introduced its more affordable custom-design GeForce GTX 1080 Ti graphics card, the EXOC White.
