ASUS releases GeForce RTX 3090 (2400 USD) and 3070 (999 USD) fitted with EKWB water block
Asus has added two graphics cards under product codes RTX3090-24G-EK and RTX 3070-8G-EK to the stack or deck of cards, both with preinstalled EK Water Blocks water blocks.
We already reported this earlier on in the global press release, however they are now getting available it seems (if you can find and grab one that is). The water block is a full-cover type that cools the GPU, memory, and power supply circuit together, and the nickel-plated copper base improves thermal conductivity. In addition, the backside is equipped with an aluminum backplate that protects the board and is equipped with an illumination function compatible with AURA Sync.
The specifications of "RTX 3090-24G-EK" equipped with GeForce RTX 3090 are GDDR6X 24GB video with core boost clock of 1,695MHz (Gaming Mode) / 1,725MHz (OC Mode), memory speed of 19.5Gbps, memory bus width of 384bit. Equipped with memory. The Output interface is HDMI2.1 x 1, DisplayPort1.4ax3, the auxiliary power connector is 8pinx2, external dimensions are length 216 mm, width 136.2 mm, thickness 19.8 mm, weight 881 g
The specifications of " RTX 3070-8G-EK" equipped with GeForce RTX 3070 are core boost clock 1,725MHz (Gaming Mode) / 1,755MHz (OC Mode), memory speed 14Gbps, memory bus width 256bit, GDDR6 8GB graphics memory. The output interface is HDMI2.1 x 1, DisplayPort1.4ax3, the auxiliary power connector is 12pinx1 (8pinx2 conversion adapter included), and the external dimensions are 209mm in length, 111.5mm in width, 21.5mm in thickness, and 781g in weight.
The advantage here is that these cards have no warranty issues as the block comes factory installed. The 3090 would cost 2400 UER/USD :) and the 3070 is listed at 999 EUR/USD/ Well, luckily that's including tax.

PC gamers can no longer argue against the console peasants that have always said PC gaming is too expensive. Has the PC master race fallen?

I might have missed something, but I bought an ASUS 3070 EK exactly two months ago and was available before, and the 3080 and 3090 EK models are also available since the end of 2020/beginning of 2021.

$1K USD for a 3070, a medium tier card regardless of what people want to pass it off as... yep time to switch to consoles if you can ever get one through the scalpers who are totally innocent and not a problem at all just like the miners are innocent and have done nothing wrong. /s
