ROG ARES II brings back otherworldly graphics might with dual Radeon™ HD 7970 GHz Edition GPUs and a massive 6GB GDDR5, all in a standard 2-slot height. The fastest card available, it introduces hybrid air and liquid cooling for relentless stability. Its power is controlled by DIGI+ VRM and Super Alloy Power components, with easy GPU Tweak card tuning.
13% faster than GTX 690. 130% faster than HD 7970
Twin HD 7970 GHz Edition GPUs provide the fastest graphics performance of any card currently on the market. Its 6GB GDDR5 video memory means smooth high-count framerates in any PC game available or forthcoming in the near future.
31°C cooler performance than reference GTX 690
All-new innovation cools the world’s fastest graphics card, which fits in a 2-slot height. Dedicated liquid cooling for the dual GPUs joins a dust-proof fan that dissipates heat from critical components to knock temps down and increase stability.
30% less power noise and 2.5X greater durability
Acclaimed DIGI+ VRM has been applied via a 20-phase power design that uses digital voltage regulators to minimize power noise by 30%, enhance power efficiency by 15%, widen voltage modulation tolerance, and improve overall stability and longevity by 2.5 times over reference.
Real-time and intuitive graphics tuning
ASUS GPU Tweak utility not only allows you to optimize clock speeds, voltages and fan speeds on up to four graphics cards independently or simultaneously, you can also select between GPU Tweak’s Standard or Advanced modes depending on your level of experience.
