The components on the board surface are precisely soldered using Auto-Extreme technology and the GPU chip is cooled by a massive heatsink and MaxContact technology. In addition, three fans take advantage of our new Axial-Tech design, which surpasses even our own industry-leading last generation fans. Between these layers are countless other features designed to get the most out of AMD's RDNA technology. These fans have been redesigned for the latest generation of high-end ROG graphics cards and feature a smaller hub for longer blades and a locking ring to increase downward air pressure. Auto-Extreme technology is an automated manufacturing process that sets new standards in the industry by performing all soldering operations in a single operation. This reduces the thermal stress to which the components are exposed and makes the use of harsh cleaning agents superfluous. This leads to a better environmental balance, reduces energy consumption during production and ensures a more reliable overall product.
