Common Applications

This full-coverage GPU water block is built for the ASUS ROG Strix RTX 3080-10G, 3080-O12G, 3080 Ti-O12G and 3090-24G PCB. The cold plate is electroplated high-purity copper bonded to a clear acrylic top, and it makes direct contact with the GPU die, GDDR6/GDDR6X memory packages and the VRM stage through pre-cut thermal pads. The integrated active backplate is a second copper waterway routed across the rear of the PCB, anodized aluminum on the outer face for rigidity. Coolant enters and exits via G1/4 ports on the top and bottom edges, so the block can be plumbed in series or parallel inside multi-card loops. A 5V 3-pin ARGB strip and required mounting hardware are included; verify the PCB image against the listing before installing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Which graphics cards fit the N-AS3090STRIX-TC-V3?

A: ASUS ROG Strix RTX 3090 24G, RTX 3080 Ti O12G, RTX 3080 10G and RTX 3080 O12G Gaming PCBs. It does not fit reference/Founders or other AIB designs.

Q: What does the active backplate actually cool?

A: It is a second coolant waterway on the rear of the PCB that pulls heat from thermal pads sitting on the back of the GPU die and the GDDR6X memory packages.

Q: Which RGB header do I use, 5V or 12V?

A: 5V 3-pin ARGB only. Connecting it to a 12V 4-pin RGB header will destroy the LEDs immediately.

Q: What thread size are the ports?

A: G1/4 inch. Inlet and outlet are present on both the top and bottom edges of the block for serial or parallel routing.

Q: What is in the box?

A: One full-coverage block with integrated active backplate, two G1/4 stop fittings, mounting screws and standoffs, pre-cut thermal pads, thermal grease, and one 5V ARGB LED strip.
