Finished Looks
I want to give a special thanks to EVGA for providing an RTX 2080 FTW3 Ultra to replace my old GTX 980; it was a much needed upgrade. In addition to the new hardware and the new bench, I have changed up the cooling, going with a larger loop. The Eisbaer performed well, but the ever-increasing heat density of mainstream CPUs was pushing it to the limit.
The Racing X570GT has an open, neutral aesthetic. The black and gray theme is a good choice for broad color compatibility, and the exposed chipset fan and metal rear I/O cover give the board a solid mechanical vibe.
The Racing X570GT doesn't have any onboard RGB LEDs, though it does have RGB headers to allow for user expansion.
