Announced by KFA2 (Galax) the new range of RTX WTF graphics cards, a solution one step below their recognized Hall of Fame.

We all know the Galax brand in Europe as KFA2. This company especially has the Hall of Fame or HoF as the most striking graphics. The HoFs are the top of the range and have the most advanced heatsink in the company. In order to expand the catalog and offer a more economical solution, they have developed the WTF (Work The Frames) range.

This new design and configurations are one notch below the current HoF. A design that will debut with the NVIDIA RTX Super and for now will not be implemented in other graphics. So we won't see non-Super RTX models with this new heatsink design. Of course, the happy RGB that is not missing, it is not case that someone still does not have epilepsy or something like that.

We can see that the plastic trim has a design that is somewhat reminiscent of the HoF. The three fans of this graphic have RGB lighting, an element that does not contribute anything.

The aesthetics are fine, but the most relevant is under the heatsink. KFA2 has developed its own PCB that elevates the memories and the GPU a bit. The memories happen to be very close to the edge and the processor has been raised. The idea is that they are far from the PCIe port so as not to overheat it.

Initially the RTX 2080 Super with 8 + 2 power phases and the RTX 2070 Super with 7 + 2 phase VRM will be launched. These graphics cards come factory overclocked, but it's very small.

The heatsink is based on two blocks in which a cold plate is included in direct contact through six heatpipes. The heatpipes run through all the bodies, allowing the heat generated by the GPU and VRMs to dissipate. The three 90mm fans with RGB LED lighting also stand out. The graph's backplate stands out, which looks like a star nebula, breaking with any predecessor blackplate.
