Colorful Technology announced two new graphics cards from the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 series. The company releases the iGame GeForce RTX 4080 16GB Advanced OC and Ultra W OC GPUs. Both graphics cards will provide a new physical design but still offer the same performance and power that Colorful Technology is known for.
COLORFUL releases new iGame GeForce RTX 4080 16 GB graphics cards with overclocking capabilities
The iGame GeForce RTX 4080 Advanced OC does offer a slight change to its core. The graphics card will receive the new Gravity Rim central fan design, which is an alteration to the original iGame Energy Core used in previous GPUs from the series and comes in at 96mm in size. The other two fans will utilize the newest Hurrican Scythe Blade design, measuring 100mm. The design is previously seen on the company’s iGame GeForce RTX 4090 Vulcan OC-V GPU. The overall design of the Advanced OC GPU is considered “stealthier” and “simpler” compared to previous generations.

The metal backplate reduces PCB flexing and adds to the aesthetics of the new iGame GeForce RTX 4080 Advanced OC graphics card. Near the rear input and output of the GPU is the single overclocking button to increase performance without entering the PC case. The back panel is hollow to allow essential heat dissipation and proper airflow compared to other standard graphics cards. Lastly, Colorful’s iGame Center software lets users control the RGB coloring on the graphics card.
Key Features
Gravity Rim: A redesigned version of the iGame Energy Core that creates a mysterious black hole effect.
Meteorite Backplate: A sturdy metal backplate that reduces PCB flexing. An intricate iGame grille design is added to the backplate’s hollow back to add aesthetics.
Hurricane Scythe Blades: New fan blade design that delivers superior airflow compared to the previous-generation Storm Chaser fan design. The Advanced OC uses two 100mm fans and a 96mm center fan.
One-Key Overclock: A conveniently placed button located at the rear I/O that activates overclocking function for a quick and easy performance boost without opening the software.
Hollow Back Panel: A hollow back panel design that allows airflow to freely pass through the heatsink. This design greatly improves heat dissipation compared to conventional GPU air cooling designs.
Customizable RGB Lighting: COLORFUL is all about adding a touch of colors to your gaming PC. The graphics card features RGB lighting that is fully customizable using the iGame Center software.
