GIGABYTE TECHNOLOGY Co. Ltd, a leading manufacturer of premium gaming hardware, today announced the GIGABYTE WATERFORCE graphics card - AORUS Radeon RX 6900 XT XTREME WATERFORCE WB 16G. AORUS WATERFORCE graphics card combines the latest premium Radeon RX 6900 XT GPU and AORUS patent-pending "Leak detection" technology. This is the best choice for high-end water-cooling systems.

AORUS Radeon RX 6900 XT XTREME WATERFORCE WB 16G is designed with the patent-pending "Leak detection" technology. The built-in leak detection circuit covers the entire fitting and water block and can promptly alert users by flashing light at the first sign of leak, so users can deal with the leakage early and prevent any further damage to the system.



AORUS WATERFORCE WB is ideal for those who wish to build open-loop liquid cooling systems. GIGABYTE specializes in thermal cooling solutions, providing optimal channel spacing between the micro fins for enhanced heat transfer from the GPU via stable water flows. The sunk-designed copper micro fins also shorten the heat conduction path from the GPU, so that the heat can be transferred to the water channel area quickly.

GIGABYTE provides factory-assembled professional quality, RGB Fusion 2.0 lighting, protection metal backplate and ULTRA DURABLE certified components. All these features make AORUS WATERFORCE graphics cards the best choice.

If the user replaces the air-cooled graphics card with the third-party water-cooled kit, in addition to increasing the risk of damage to the graphics card, the warranty will also be lost. The water block installed by GIGABYTE has been professionally designed and tested to accurately dissipate the heat generated by the graphics card. It has better heat dissipation efficiency than the third-party kits.

We want you to experience the best service you have ever had. This is why on top of our standard 3-year warranty, we would like to offer you an additional 1 year of protection to your graphics card free of charge. You can enjoy a 4-year warranty by registering on the website within 30 days of purchase.

Single slot solution with a dual slot bracket, brilliant, as is the inclusion of flashing lights for the leak detection system, which most likely will be in a system with flashy lights.
They couldn't make the leak detection system shut the computer down instead if a leak is detected? :banghead:

What? and miss out on showing a lack of common sense?

On the other hand, if you say #no2rgb, all would be ok. :p
