Elite is a striking looking graphics card which sports both a sleek and aggressive design. Its large triple-fan shroud is matte-black with subtly angular cut lines, giving it a sharp, dynamic profile. The three “Hawk” fans, one of which carries the AORUS eagle logo, are illuminated by concentric RGB rings offering both style and airflow.

Flipping to the reverse of the card, there is a solid, reinforced backplate that has both structural rigidity and clean geometric cutouts. The team has not failed to deliver an outstanding design in the Elite.


This card features a trio of 8-pin PCIe connector and AORUS are recommending an 850W power supply for this graphics card.

On the outer edge AORUS has included a switch to allow users to toggle between performance or quiet mode with dual BIOS.


On the rear IO panel there are a total of four video outputs – 2x DisplayPort 2.1b and 2x HDMI 2.1b. So, there are plenty of options between the two standards.

As you can see, Elite does stray into a third PCI-E slot. One thing is for sure, this is a large graphics card and it measures in at: L=339 W=136 H=59 mm.

Elite does come in with a factory overclock, boosting the GPU clock to 3100MHz. This means there is an uplift of 130MHz which is not too shabby by any means.
