GALAX Boosts HOF Card Performance With Dual Power Design

GALAX gave their fancy new GeForce RTX 5090D graphics cards to famous computer tweakers last month for testing. These early versions came with just one 12V-2×6 power plug, though the white circuit board clearly showed room for more. People online complained these cards might not reach super high speeds because they needed more juice. Liquid nitrogen cooling helped push these chips beyond normal limits during early trials.

GALAX answered critics by creating a special version called the HOF Extreme Overclock Lab Limited Edition. This newer model includes two 12V-2×6 power connectors instead of just one. Several computer speed experts joined a contest hosted by GALAX to see who could push these cards furthest. A Chinese participant named Micka posted pictures of his setup online after breaking records.

Micka scored an amazing 17169 points on the 3DMark Speed Way benchmark, putting him at the top spot. His computer monitoring software showed the graphics chip running at 3277 MHz. Back in January, ASUS manager Tony Yu cranked a different RTX 5090 D model up to 3.4 GHz using extreme cooling methods. GALAX built their premium cards with carefully selected parts for maximum performance.

Even the basic HOF version performs really well despite having fewer power inputs. GALAX praised overclocker Rauf from Overclocked Gaming Systems for helping test their products. Using the standard HOF card, Rauf set world records with scores of 59,072 points in 3DMark Fire Strike Extreme. He also hit 25,040 points in the tough Unigine Superposition test at 8K resolution. These numbers prove GALAX makes seriously powerful graphics cards for computer enthusiasts.
