Asus has released a new constrained edition graphics card sequence utilizing stylings designed well-known by the Neon Genesis Evangelion anime collection. Twitter’s momomo_us spotted this brightly coloured graphics card as it went up for pre-purchase at CoolPC in Taiwan.
The new Asus ROG Strix GeForce RTX 3090 O24G Evangelion Edition sells for TWD 63,990 (about $2,185). It is really the identical price as the white variation in inventory at the same Laptop components retailer and TWD 2,000 (about $68) additional highly-priced than the ‘standard’ black and gray accented triple fan Strix design.
There will only be 15 of these graphics playing cards accessible from this particular outlet as a confined version. CoolPC is bundling a cost-free ROG Herculx Graphics Card Stand with this EVA 01 graphics card, which is really worth TWD 1,290 ($44), a welcome bonus.
Asus has not still posted a merchandise web page for this pre-purchase product or service uncovered by CoolPC.

The transport day is on or about May 16, yet another opportunity start date.
With no the formal product or service web site and specs, we are not able to be positive about matters like GPU and memory clocks. Even so, as with other special editions like the Gundam and White variations of this GPU, they ought to be the very same as the black and grey model. So it will attribute the GeForce RTX 3090 regular of 10,496 CUDA cores, with a probable OC mode of 1,890 MHz (Raise Clock), moreover 24GB of GDDR6X VRAM on a 384-bit interface functioning at 19.5 Gbps. Also, like the design this card borrows inspiration from, this one features triple 8-pin electric power connectors.
Refocusing our attention on the outer look of this item, it features inexperienced stripes on a purple shroud. As well as the ROG Strix motif, there is certainly a textual content indicating EVA 01. The trio of followers characteristics a trio of logos: the NERV emblem (NERV is a team of EVA 01 mecha pilots), the EVA 01 symbol, and the ROG logo.
The backplate reveals an outline picture of the 1st non-prototype Evangelion large mechanoid unit EVA 01. This fast paced style also functions GeForce RTX textual content in Nvidia eco-friendly, the Asus ROG symbol in red (perhaps LED lit), and several a lot more minimal texts and logos.
Last of all, the prime-down perspective of the card, as if looking down on the motherboard upon which it may be mounted, reveals another sizable GeForce RTX brand, and a prolonged RGB LED light-weight bar, as for every the primary Strix model, but with a a bit distinct design and style.
We will not know how lots of Asus ROG Strix GeForce RTX 3090 O24G Evangelion GPUs will be obtainable in the complete of Taiwan or globally. The price quality in Taiwan isn’t really too tough to swallow, even with the reward ROG Herculx GPU assistance. Whether or not the style attracts you will possibly be related to your enthusiasm for significant mecha robot anime displays. Those people unfamiliar with the display possibly would not be drawn to this purple and eco-friendly product.
With significantly greater provides or graphics cards all-around, and charges slipping again down to MSRP zones, we hope that particular editions like this don’t put up with the exact destiny as other individuals.
