Gigabyte Launches AORUS RTX 5090 STEALTH ICE for Clean PC Builds
GIGABYTE TECHNOLOGY Co. Ltd has announced the launch of the AORUS GeForce RTX 5090 STEALTH ICE 32G graphics card. This product is designed specifically for the GIGABYTE Project STEALTH series, a range of PC components that focus on hidden cables and minimalist aesthetics. With the introduction of this graphics card, GIGABYTE aims to offer gamers and PC enthusiasts both high performance and a cleaner, more organized build layout.
The main feature of the new AORUS GeForce RTX 5090 STEALTH ICE is its hidden power connector design. Unlike traditional graphics cards, which require power cables to be plugged in from the front or side, this model relocates the connector to the rear. This change allows for easier cable management and reduces visual clutter inside the PC case. The intention is to provide users with a more refined and modern appearance, particularly for those who value an elegant and tidy system build.
GIGABYTE’s Project STEALTH initiative is built around the idea of relocating all connectors to the back of the main components, including the motherboard, graphics card, and chassis. This approach is designed to help users assemble their systems more efficiently, as well as to improve the overall organization within the PC. By eliminating visible cabling from the front, users can better highlight features such as RGB lighting and LCD edge displays. The result is a unified and clean visual presentation, which is becoming increasingly important for enthusiasts who showcase their setups.
Performance and cooling are also key selling points for the AORUS GeForce RTX 5090 STEALTH ICE graphics card. GIGABYTE has equipped the card with an upgraded WINDFORCE cooling system, which includes a new fan design, enhanced thermal materials, and a more advanced heat dissipation module. These improvements are meant to ensure that the graphics card can handle heavy gaming or creative workloads without overheating. The latest Hawk Fan model is reported to increase air pressure by over 53 percent and boost air volume by more than 12 percent, while minimizing turbulence and noise. This should help the card remain cool and quiet during extended use.
Additional thermal enhancements include a large vapor chamber that makes direct contact with the GPU, along with superconducting heat pipes that use varied capillary structures to improve heat transfer. For thermal conductivity, the graphics card uses composite metal grease, which is said to be more efficient than traditional options. Critical components such as VRAM and MOSFETs are protected by server-grade thermal conductive gel, designed to maintain consistent heat dissipation even on uneven surfaces. Users seeking even greater cooling capabilities can take advantage of an extra fan, which can be installed above the backplate’s screen cooling area to further improve airflow and temperature management.
The card also offers a silent operating mode, which can be enabled through the GIGABYTE CONTROL CENTER software. This mode allows users to adjust the fan settings with a single click, reducing noise levels without requiring manual adjustment. The aim is to deliver a quieter environment for gaming or everyday computer use.
For those looking to build a cohesive system, GIGABYTE recommends pairing the AORUS GeForce RTX 5090 STEALTH ICE graphics card with its X870 or B850 STEALTH ICE series motherboards, and the C500 PANORAMIC STEALTH ICE chassis. This combination is intended to produce an all-white, cable-free setup with a panoramic viewing angle, allowing users to fully display the clean design and high-performance components.
More information and detailed specifications for the graphics card are available on the official GIGABYTE website.
