We know some heavy guys, but with the current GeForce-RTX models, Palit has taken a lot to heart, which has been repeatedly called for in the previous models. And the Game Rock Premium Edition (GRPE) really lives up to its name, because the part is a real mountain of graphics card, almost a small mountain. But I don’t want to pre-empt the test, but I can’t hide the fact that I was already quite tense.

The cooler is a complete new construction and relies on very large contact surfaces, as we will see in a while. The fans are also more or less new and inappropriate experiments such as Vortex fans are also thankfully dispensed with here. You can see that not only the cover has been redesigned, but that it is really a real reboot that not only works on the optics.

With 1302 grams, the card was given a good hip gold this time. And that’s a good thing, because somewhere the cooling surface has to come. The card is 29.5 cm long between the outer edge slot panel and the end of the radiator cover, measures 12.5 cm from the top edge slot panel to the top of the graphics card housing and is even 5.5 cm thick. In addition, there is another 0.5 cm for the blackened backplate.

The cover is made of matt black plastic with applied applications in gunmetal look and of course there are still RGB-illuminated, translucent inserts in the front. A bit of fun has to be easy and if you like to tap in the dark, you can also drag the roller blind down to night mode via software. The two fairly flat 9.7 cm fans, each with 11 rotor blades, both sit in a 10 cm opening.

The video outputs are the minimum assembly for the maximum controllable 4 output devices from Nvidia: once HDMI 2.0 meets 3x DisplayPort 1.4. In addition, there is the USB Type C. Palit delivers the card with two external ATX power supply ports (8-pin + 6-pin). But more on top of that The screenshot of GPU-Z gives us a first impression of the factory overclocked card, which also comes to the customer with a dual BIOS, which however relies on identical specifications and is a pure security feature:

Test system and measurement methods

We have already described the new test system and the methodology in detail in the basic article “How We Test Graphics Cards, as of February 2017″ and therefore refer to this detailed basis for simplicity. Description. So if you want to read everything again, you are welcome to do so.
