KEY POINTS

  • ROG Strix GeForce RTX™ 2060 turns heads with Aura Sync RGB lighting and a triple-fan design
  • ROG Strix and ASUS Dual GeForce RTX 2060 feature Wing-blade fans that offer increased static pressure and IP5X certification for dust resistance
  • ASUS Dual GeForce RTX 2060 homes in on thermal performance with a 2.7-slot design that expands cooling surface area by 50%
  • ASUS Turbo GeForce RTX 2060 is equipped with a redesigned cooler to improve thermals for multi-card configurations and chassis with limited airflow

Las Vegas, CES (January 6, 2019) - ASUS today announced Republic of Gamers (ROG) Strix, ASUS Dual, and ASUS Turbo graphics cards that feature the new NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 2060 GPU, high-speed GDDR6 memory, and real-time ray tracing capabilities. Each card is tailored for specific build types, with performance, customization, and cooling technology tuned to bring out the best of the Turing™ architecture and deliver outstanding performance on modern games with the graphics settings cranked up.

ROG Strix GeForce RTX 2060

The ROG Strix GeForce RTX 2060 is designed for showpiece builds, with features that hint at the overclocking power it packs under the hood. Aura Sync RGB lighting offers almost limitless color customization and graces both the shroud and metal backplate. Three patented Wing-blade fans bring top-end performance to this mainstream Turing™ card. The thermal solution is paired with a myriad of other premium features such as a proprietary automated manufacturing process called Auto-Extreme technology, a metal brace that reduces tension on the PCB, and FanConnect II headers that allow hybrid fan control to account for both GPU and CPU temperatures. For those looking for brains and beauty, the ROG Strix GeForce RTX 2060 won’t disappoint.

ASUS Dual GeForce RTX 2060

The ASUS Dual GeForce RTX 2060 is for gamers who value pure performance. A 2.7-slot footprint accommodates a large heatsink, making the overall surface area of the cooling array more than 50% larger compared to previous-generation designs. Two Wing-blade fans trickle down from the ROG Strix card, offering IP5X dust resistance for durability along with a 0dB mode¹ to minimize noise during light loads. A robust metal backplate wraps things up and solidifies the ASUS Dual’s position as the most value-oriented NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 from ASUS.

ASUS Turbo GeForce RTX 2060

The ASUS Turbo GeForce RTX 2060 is designed from the ground up for systems with multiple GPUs or other airflow-restricting scenarios. It incorporates a host of subtle design optimizations that improve airflow through the shroud and increase reliability. Upgrades include an 80mm IP5X dual-ball bearing fan and a new shroud design that allows more air to flow into the cooler, even when it’s pressed against a glass chassis panel or another graphics card. When a blower-style card is called for, the Turbo line is the reliable choice.
