ASUS cooks up GeForce RTX 3090 TURBO with blower fan

ASUS has designed a new GeForce RTX 3090 TURBO video card that uses blower-style cooling. This model has a two-slot design and uses a heatsink made from pure copper. Blower-style cooling for a 350W TDP GPU is pretty rare but this card is not intended for gamers.

There are a lot of professional users that use GeForce cards instead of NVIDIA's more expensive workstation cards, so this GeForce RTX 3090 TURBO from ASUS could be a nice option if you need a workstation with up to four GeForce RTX 3090 cards. The RTX 3090 is the only model in the consumer Ampere lineup that supports NVLink.

ASUS allows a 1725MHz Boost via its GPU Tweak software, which is a minor 1.8% factory overclock.

What might be surprising is that the graphics card can be overclocked to 1725 MHz and still be within the recommended specifications. Such frequency is not applied automatically, instead, it requires in-house ASUS GPU Tweak software that will automatically overclock the graphics card once the system starts.
