Powered by dual AMD Radeon™ Hawaii XT GPUs factory-overclocked at 1030MHz, and boasting 8GB of GDDR5 memory with a clock speed of 5000MHz, Ares III delivers blazingly fast performance that is 15% faster than the GTX™ Titan Z. Featuring a hand-carved EK water block, Ares III has a premium, water-cooled design that provides 25% cooler temperatures than the reference Radeon R9 295X2. Meticulously-engineered and carefully-crafted with close attention to detail, Ares III will be manufactured in a limited run of just 500 individually-numbered units, making it highly collectible.

15% faster performance than GTX Titan Z

The ROG Ares III showcases exquisite craftsmanship and this can be seen in its sleek custom-designed EK water block and hand-carved details. It delivers a 25%-cooler performance than reference R9 295X2.

30%-less power noise and 5X-greater durability
Acclaimed DIGI+ voltage-regulator module (VRM) technology delivers 16-phase power and digital voltage regulation, while Super Alloy Power's Japanese-made 10K black-metallic capacitors, concrete-core chokes and hardened MOSFETs all withstand much greater stress and heat. The result is an ultra-stable graphics card that's forged for extreme overclocking. You benefit from loads of headroom for experimental performance tuning without generating distracting whines and buzzes.
