When NVIDIA launched its RTX 20 Series graphics cards, prospective buyers didn’t have much of an option aside from the company’s very own Founders Editions. That may not be the case this time around. According to TweakTown, custom, third-party RTX 30 Series GPUs will be available immediately alongside green team’s own reference models upon release. Obviously, this is great news for customers who want to get their hands on one right away but are loyal to certain manufacturers and/or gaming brands, such as ASUS ROG and GIGABYTE AORUS.
