We did a hands-on with the new AORUS GeForce RTX 5090 Infinity graphics card, a compact & cleverly designed triple-fan model.

Gigabyte Shows Off Its Brand New AORUS GeForce RTX 5090 Infinity Graphics Card Featuring A Unique Triple-Fan Cooler

Gigabyte's AORUS Design Lab has come up with a rather interesting GeForce RTX 5090 custom model, which it's calling the Infinity. The graphics card has been designed to offer a premium yet compact form factor that packs advanced thermals and offers the full performance of an RTX 5090 and then some more at a remarkably small footprint.

The AORUS GeForce RTX 5090 Infinity graphics card features a triple-slot design, and while it may look like a dual-fan cooler on the shroud, it's actually a cleverly designed triple-fan variant, which we will detail in full in a bit.

The graphics card features a white and black color scheme with silver tones around the circular cut-outs that are used to push air out of the top. This kind of looks like a dual-flow through, and that is exactly what Gigabyte is doing here.

Instead of using a standard PCB design, the Infinity makes use of the square-shaped Founders Edition PCB. You can see the vertical placement of the 16-pin connector on the FE PCB.

So, talking about the cooling solution, AORUS has designed a brand new cooler which leverages its Windforce Hyperburst cooling system. This employs dual Hawk fans, a direct-touch vapor chamber, superconducting heat pipes, and features the aforementioned dual flow-through design. Gigabyte uses composite metal greases as the TIM of choice for the AORUS GeForce RTX 5090 Infinity.

There's also a third fan in the center of the shroud, which AORUS labels as the "Overdrive" fan. When more performance is required, the overdrive fan can be enabled for a boosted airflow, offering more cooling to the graphics card. The card measures 14.5cm x 33cm.

AORUS will be further expanding the cooling capabilities offered by NVIDIA's Founders Edition RTX 5090 with its custom Infinity design, while offering a unique look and top-notch performance. Gigabyte didn't share any pricing or availability yet.
