ASUS has a new ROG Strix GeForce RTX 2080 Ti in white

ASUS has announced the limited edition ROG Strix GeForce RTX 2080 Ti White Edition, a card that boasts an all-white body including a white shroud, backplate, frame, and cooling fans. Most graphics cards today are still predominantly black, so this White Edition model looks like a good pick for someone looking to put together a white-themed build. Interestingly enough, GALAX went in the reverse direction with the recently announced HOF Black Edition cards for the GeForce RTX 2070 Super and 2080 Super, abandoning its signature white design for a stealthier look. 

The PCB on the ASUS card is still black however, so it's probably still the same PCB inside the regular ROG Strix GeForce RTX 2080 Ti. That said, it'd have been really nice to see a white PCB as well, just to keep things consistent.

The card shares the same features as its darker-hued counterpart, including the same semi-passive axial-tech fans, dual BIOS, and two additional 4-pin headers that support both PWM and DC fans. On top of that, a dedicated button nestled in the backplate will toggle the RGB LEDs on and off with a single click.

The White Edition card has a base clock of 1,350MHz and boost clock of 1,740MHz in Gaming Mode, but you can also increase the latter to 1,770MHz in OC Mode.

For display outputs, you get two HDMI 2.0b, two DisplayPort 1.4, and one USB-C port. The card is also powered by two 8-pin connectors. 

ASUS recommends you use at least a 650W power supply with it, and you'll also need a three-slot allowance in your case.
