1st upgrade isn`t really that much of a technical upgrade. Over a month after initial purchase, Aorus Gpus became available to buy on polish market. So I decided to change my graphics processing unit for a matching line with my motherboard. I`ve chosen the highest model – the Extreme Edition. Besides that clocks are basically the same, Aorus is equipped with beautiful RGB backplate and a special cooper base plate underneath the GP104. As all tests with a thermal camera that can found on the internet shows, it does absolutely nothing to gpu temperature, but still it look simply amazing 🙂

On the plus side, stability in 3dmark stress test increased. Also this RGB backplate is perfectly exposed in a bench table like HAF XB.
