Actually, it&#8217;s pretty impressive looking in person. In combination with those four fans, Asus has equipped the Astral card with a patented vapor chamber and a phase-change GPU thermal pad. That, in combination with some boosted default clock speeds, should make for a behemoth of a GPU.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;d like to hear it in action, but alas, these mega GPUs were merely for display.
