3080 with lcd display made in china
AORUS - the premium gaming brand from GIGABYTE had launched a completely new series of RTX 30 graphics cards, including RTX 3090 Xtreme, RTX 3090 Master, RTX 3080 Xtreme, and RTX 3080 Master.
Besides excellent cooling and superior performance, LCD Edge View is another spotlight of AORUS RTX 30 series graphics cards. LCD Edge View is a small LCD located on the top of the graphics card. What could users do with this small LCD? Let’s find it out.
LCD Edge View is a LCD located on the graphics card, you can use it todisplay GPU info including temperature, usage, clock speed, fan speed, VRAM usage, VRAM clock and total card power. All this information can be shown one by one or just certain ones on the LCD.
Besides that, there are three different displaying styles available and users could choose their ideal one. However, not just GPU info but FPS (Frame Per Second) in the game or other application could be displayed through LCD Edge View.
The LCD Edge View can also show customized content including text, pictures or even short GIF animations.Users could input the preferred text to the LCD, also set the font size, bold or italic. It also supports multi-language so users could input whatever type of text they want.
About the picture, LCD Edge View allows users to upload a JPEG file to it and AORUS RGB Fusion software will let users choose which region of the picture should be shown. The support of short GIF animations is the most interesting part.
Users can upload a short animation in terms of GIF to be shown on the LCD so they can easily build up a graphics card with their own style. All of the customizations above can be done via AORUS RGB Fusion software.
There’s something more interesting with LCD Edge View: The little CHIBI.CHIBI is a little falcon digitally living in the LCD Edge View and will grow up as more time users spend with their graphics card. Users could always check their little CHIBI through the LCD Edge View and watch it eat, sleep or fly around, which is quite interactive and interesting.
In conclusion, LCD Edge View can display a series of useful GPU information, customized text, pictures, and animations, allowing users to build up the graphics card with their own style. Users can also have more interaction with their card via the little CHIBI, the exclusive little digital falcon living inside the LCD Edge View, which brings more fun while playing with the graphics card.
Pros: It runs cool, quiet, and fast. The three 8-pin power connectors provide lots of juice directly from the PSU. Out of the box, it reaches a max core boost clock of 2085 with no overclocking. Setting the fans manually to ~75% keeps it very cool (60c or below) and the fans are barely audible. It"s worth noting that for a card this large, it doesn"t sag as much as you may expect. The RGB accents are nice once you get them to your liking.
There is plenty of headroom to save power draw and heat with undervolting. My card runs at 1950MHz undervolted to 0.90v, dropping power draw from ~360 watts at stock to ~285 watts. This greatly dropped system temps with minimal impact on performance.
Shout out to Newegg for selling new GPUs only as combos with motherboards, memory, power supplies, etc. Your sales ethics are also a major con. This makes it such a hassle to buy and have to deal with the headache of returning the other part of the combo. There has to be a better way to do this.
Overall Review: At the end of the day, it"s an RTX 3080. Beggars can"t be choosers, but even so, this is not a bad card at all. It"s just that it"s a tad bulky. But that bulk is what helps achieve better thermals with lower fan noise. Unfortunately, the bulk also makes space for the pointless LCD screen that adds to the cost... an LCD screen that can only be controlled by the terrible software that Gigabyte can"t write properly.
This is my seventh GeForce RTX 3080 review, this time from Colorful, one of the biggest players on the Chinese market. Their graphics cards have a long history of being just a little bit more over the top compared to others. The Colorful iGame GeForce RTX 3080 Vulcan OC is the company"s flagship for the RTX 3080 series. Besides the massive cooler, it offers a unique feature, a small LCD screen that lets you display vital stats of your graphics card and CPU.
Out of the box, the Vulcan OC runs at 1710 MHz rated boost, which matches the NVIDIA Founders Edition clocks exactly. I hear you ask why this card is called "OC" then. Well, I was a bit surprised at first, too. It seems the OC settings are activated only when you press the dual BIOS "Turbo" button near the rear I/O bracket. With the Turbo BIOS active, the card runs at 1800 MHz rated boost, which is higher than most other RTX 3080 custom designs. At the same time, the power limit is raised from 320 W to 370 W—this will make a big difference, having more impact than just the rated boost clock. The difference between the BIOSes is so big, I decided to fully test both to show proper product performance.
Averaged over our whole game testing suite at 4K resolution, the Vulcan OC with the default BIOS is 1% faster than the NVIDIA Founders Edition, which is not a whole lot. The Turbo BIOS works much better, running 3% faster than the default BIOS, which brings the total uplift against the FE to 4%. Albeit not a huge difference, it is still a decent increase for a RTX 3080 custom design. Compared to the RTX 2080 Ti, the card is 37% faster, a pretty impressive gap. The uplift against the RTX 2080 Super is almost 65%. AMD"s top dog, the Radeon RX 5700 XT, will only give you half (!) the FPS of the iGame RTX 3080. AMD is announcing new graphics cards soon, which are expected to change this situation, but I doubt they"ll match the RTX 3080. RTX 3090 is less than 10% faster at much higher cost—barely worth it.
If you are looking for a fluid 4K gaming experience, the RTX 3080 is the card you want. At lower resolutions, many games are CPU bottlenecked though, so the card won"t be able to play out its full potential. The RTX 3080 is also a good option for 1440p high refresh-rate gaming, but I definitely wouldn"t spend that much money just for Full HD 1080p gaming.
Visually, the iGame RTX 3080 Vulcan looks great because of a mix of gray, silver, and black paired with an edgy cooler shroud that"s not too distracting. The Colorful thermal solution achieves very low temperatures of 67°C with the default BIOS and 72°C with the Turbo BIOS—both lower than many competing cards. Fan noise levels are higher, though. With 35 dBA and 37 dBA, they are sitting right next to the Founders Edition"s 36 dBA. Given the low temperatures, I feel like Colorful could have used a slightly less aggressive fan curve. On the other hand, I hear a lot of gamers in the Asian markets favor low temperatures over fan noise, which could explain the fan settings. NVIDIA introduced idle fan stop on their Founders Edition cards with the GeForce RTX 30 series, which makes this capability a standard feature to have. The Colorful iGame RTX 3080 Vulcan will turn off its fans in idle, desktop work, Internet browsing, and light gaming for the perfect noise-free experience.
With the Vulcan, Colorful is including a small LCD monitor that"s attached to the top edge of the graphics card, capable of displaying various important statistics, like frequencies and temperatures. The iGame Center software is required to send those stats to the LCD, though. The colors of the panel are crisp and the animations smooth, much better than other solutions we"ve seen in the past. You may customize which sensor values are displayed, with how much delay between them and in which order. You may also choose between a "one value + chart" or "two values" display format, and can show off your own uploaded logo.
Power efficiency is comparable to the Founders Edition. Actually, it is a tiny bit better. This is the case with both the default and Turbo BIOS. While the default BIOS matches FE power consumption exactly, the Turbo BIOS is slightly more power hungry, but offers higher performance at the same time, which is a fair trade-off. Other vendors increase the voltage for their factory overclock or compromise on the VRM design, which negatively affects power efficiency, not a problem with the Colorful iGame RTX 3080 Vulcan OC.
Overclocking on our sample with the default BIOS worked similarly to other RTX 3080 cards: gains are limited because the board power limit will cap the frequencies you can achieve. That"s also a big drawback of the default BIOS. Its manual adjustment power limit is set to 340 W, which is 30 W below the Founders Edition—strange. With the Turbo BIOS on the other hand, OC yielded excellent results because it lets you set a 400 W power limit, which is higher than most other RTX 3080 cards I"ve tested. At 400 W, overclocking potential was the best of all RTX 3080 cards so far: 7.8%, which is really close to what the stock RTX 3090 can achieve, at much higher pricing. I still feel the Vulcan OC could handle much more power, its 22+4 VRM configuration is stronger than on any other card. Colorful maybe can release an optional XOC BIOS with an even higher power limit, similar to what EVGA has been doing with their FTW3.
Colorful is asking $880 for the iGame RTX 3080 Vulcan OC, which is a steep $180 premium over the Founders Edition. No doubt, the big cooler, much better VRM circuitry, and LCD display cost money, but I still find it too expensive. The factory overclock can justify a few percent, but not 20%. ASUS is asking $850 for the STRIX, EVGA wants $810 for the FTW3 Ultra, and the AORUS Master is $850. A price point much closer to $800 would definitely help the Vulcan, but at this time, all RTX 3080s everywhere are sold out, and people are willing to pay much much more, so my pricing considerations really don"t matter.

Apple plans quite ahead when it comes to its products and it arranges all the necessary supply chain sources beforehand. While the iPhone 14 series is expected to launch later this year, we are now hearing that a China-based display make will supply Apple will OLED LTPO panels for the iPhone 15 Pro models. Take note that only the high-end models of the iPhone 15 series will feature an OLED LTPO display made by the Chinese manufacturer BOE. Scroll down to see more details on the subject.
The new report coins that BOE is planning to expand its capacity to make OLED LTPO displays. The displays will house the variable refresh rate option of up to 120Hz. The manufacturer will be ready by the time Apple will announce the iPhone 15 Pro models in 2023. This year, Apple will keep BOE for its lower-end iPhone 14 models instead of the "Pro" models. The iPhone 14 Pro models will be using LTPO displays from Samsung and LG.
Apple is planning to ditch the notch with the launch of the iPhone 14 models, Apple is stuck with a notch since its debut with the iPhone X. We have previously heard that the iPhone 14 models will use a pill-shaped cutout alongside a hole-punch display. Moreover, the Face ID components will be part of the mix and not hidden under the display. In addition, in-display Touch ID is also rumored to be ditched in the next iPhone 14 model.
This is all there is to it, folks. We will keep you guys updated on the latest, so be sure to stick around. Also, share your expectations with us in the comments section below.
The COLORFUL iGame GeForce RTX 30 Series Vulcan models feature a unique LCD display embedded on it. Now, they made the very same thing with the previous Vulcan models, but this time around the company is stepping up its game by making it a tad bigger. Best of all, it can be flipped 90 degrees so you can still show that style even when you’re rocking your graphics card vertically. You can put JPG images, GIF, hardware monitoring info, and a lot more useful and fancy imagery right there.
As with other RTX 30 Series graphics cards at the moment, availability may be somewhat of an issue due to the huge demand. A quick google search currently lists this model for CNY 6,999 on JD, or around PHP 49,700 when directly converted to the local currency.
