The Gigabyte Aorus RTX 4080 Super Master is more understated than a lot of cards. It has every right to shout from the rooftops, but instead Gigabyte have kept it subtle. Because of this it’s perfect in almost any setup.

You would imagine that a black graphics card in our white system would be jarring, but without the flash and flair of a more glitzy design, it fits right in.

Of course if you have a black setup, then the Aorus Master is going to give you that full ninja aesthetic. We love it.

There are many ways to set your rig up, but we find the chimney one, floor and roof fans, to be the most effective. Particularly when allied to a vertical GPU. The cool air is equivalent to the GPU fans being on low, but with the noise you get with them off. It keeps things cooler when casually mucking about, and really comes into its own in stressful situations. Speaking of stress, let’s pull up some games.
