Know before you buy
Yes, the Glacier G2080Ti is designed for the Founders Edition versions of both the RTX 2080 and the RTX 2080 Ti.
The block features digital addressable RGB lighting that is compatible with ASUS Aura Sync and the Phanteks Digital RGB Controller, allowing you to sync it with the rest of your system's lighting.
Yes, each unit includes Phanteks PH-NEC thermal compound, which is formulated with diamond-like particles to ensure efficient heat transfer between your GPU and the copper base.
VITON is a high-performance material commonly used in aerospace and automotive applications. It provides superior resistance to heat and chemical degradation, significantly reducing the risk of leaks over the long term.
The central-flow connection is engineered for high-flow systems, ensuring that coolant is distributed efficiently across the copper base to maximize heat dissipation from the GPU core.
To maintain the integrity of the nickel plating, it is recommended to use a high-quality, non-conductive coolant and avoid mixing different metals within your custom loop to prevent galvanic corrosion.
