ASUS, EVGA and ZOTAC GeForce RTX 2080 (Ti) Card photos leak as well
Well, at this pace there isn't much left to uncover upcoming Monday, photos now leaked from Gigabyte, MSI, PNY and Palit. We can now add to that EVGA and ZOTAC.
If all these photos and renders are a real thing, that pretty much leaves ASUS unexposed, again of all photos have not been photoshopped. Below you can see the EVGA XC Ultra series in the latest videocardz leak. The model here should be a RTX 2080 non-Ti with 2944 shader cores. This model comes with 8GB GDDR6 memory and 256-bit bus. Meanwhile, ZOTAC Gaming has new AMP models to show the renders show RTX 2080 Ti model has two 8pin connectors, while 2080 has a 6+8 pin.
Have a peek. Let me once again reiterate that we cannot vouch for these photos and screenshots and all are part of the rumor mill.
** Update, and the ASUS ones have been posted as well. Added

it is cooling its own heatsink, is ok.
I do not see anything stupid here.
The alternative are the blower fans that sends hot air out of the case near the video connectors, but they are so noisy.

Yes it's cooling it's own heatsink while blowing air upwards (since the card itself is not blocking the airflow) which happens to be near the RAM lol.
Sigh and i wanted to go Zotac this time, i guess i'll just wait for review and look at the thing slotted before making assumptions :/

Do you understand how a heatsink works? There is nothing wrong with the Zotac design. As long as the fans are blowing onto to the heatsink and heat pipes then they are doing their job. Not all of the fans have to be aimed at the card. And if you are worried about your system RAM because of the extra air being directed it's way then I think that's pointless. Unless the whole design is constructed to blow the air outside of the case then it's ALL going back inside anyway (increasing air temps inside your case). A small overhang off the end of your GPU is the least of your worries...

Why is the last Zotac fan out of the card, i know is still has the heatsink there which is out of place as well, i could make fun and say this is a 2 in 1 with extra cooling for the RAM
I don't know if this is the final product but if so it's pretty stupid, even if this is the same size as a GTX1080 and the extra fan space is not aligned with the RAM it's blowing hot air into the top of the case near the RAM (since a GTX1080 is more or less aligned with the RAM where the card ends) and it will actually get hotter there.o_O
