The card remains passive thanks to it's cooling solution, up-to a GPU temperature of 60 Degrees C the fans do not even spin.

Gigabyte placed a slab of copper back plate cooling on the rear side to function as heatsink, the GPU area is exposed. Basically a big heatsink made out of copper, quite expensive to do actually. Excessive heat from GPU not only gets dissipated utilizing the massive cooling module in the front but also through the back side with a big copper plate, providing a well-rounded thermal solution for the GPU. Our thermal images will back this up as there is nothing that worried us remotely or slightly heat wise.

The card is almost 12 inches in length which is nearing 30 cm so it will need some space inside your chassis alright. Please do make sure it actually fits. For those that wonder, the board is equipped with 11 Gbps Micron GDDR5X memory ICs.

RGB LEDs are a bit of a trend and like everybody Gigabyte follows. The LED system can be controlled individually by choosing any of the animation effects available in software, ranging from breathing and flashing. Of course, you can also turn them off.

And yes, I do think that is a nice looking product with the accents and matte black. Again I am not a fan of too many logos with actual text. Perhaps next rime drop the Aorus text and just use the logo itself? Below a couple of photos of RGB combinations.
