Gigabyte Launches Anime-Styled AORUS GeForce RTX 5060 ARI Edition Graphics Card
Gigabyte has announced the availability of the AORUS GeForce RTX 5060 ARI Edition, a graphics card that combines an anime-inspired look with a performance-focused cooling design. According to the company, it targets mainstream gamers and anime fans.
- Gigabyte announced availability of the AORUS GeForce RTX 5060 ARI Edition graphics card.
- The design is inspired by anime and features the character Ari on the backplate.
- It is styled to match the AORUS B850 AORUS ELITE-P ICE motherboard.
- Gigabyte claims its Hawk fans raise air pressure by up to 53.6% and airflow by up to 12.5%.
- Registered users can get one extra year of manufacturer warranty.
Anime design built around the character Ari
The card is themed around Ari, which Gigabyte describes as a "technological guardian angel" created by AORUS. According to the company, Ari is a purpose-built ACG character meant to embody performance, creativity and gaming spirit. The graphics card carries an Ari motif on its backplate.
The design is matched to the AORUS B850 AORUS ELITE-P ICE motherboard. Gigabyte says this lets users put together a uniform PC build in the Ari style. The packaging also includes collectible Ari accessories, which the company says add to the unboxing experience and offer extra ways to personalize a setup.
WINDFORCE cooling and Hawk fans
For thermal performance, the card uses Gigabyte's WINDFORCE cooling system. According to the company, it combines several elements:
- the patented Hawk fan from Gigabyte
- server-grade thermal gel
- a copper plate
- composite copper heat pipes
Gigabyte claims the Hawk fans can increase air pressure by up to 53.6% and airflow by up to 12.5%, while also reducing noise. The thermal gel is described as highly deformable and non-liquid, which allows even contact with uneven component surfaces. It is designed to resist deformation during transport and long-term use.
The copper plate and the composite copper heat pipes sit in direct contact with the GPU. Gigabyte says this moves heat quickly to the cooling fins and supports efficient heat dissipation.
Build quality, warranty and availability
Gigabyte says the card is designed for high structural stability and durability. A reinforced metal backplate is securely connected to the I/O bracket, and an angled edge design adds further stability. A high-quality PCB coating protects the card against dust, moisture and corrosion.
The company also uses Ultra Durable components, which it says should help improve cooling performance, reduce power loss and extend product life. After product registration, users can receive an additional one-year extension of the manufacturer warranty on top of the regular warranty.
The release does not give a price or specific launch dates by region. Gigabyte asks interested buyers to check availability with local and online retailers, and points to its official website for more information on the AORUS GeForce RTX 5060 ARI Edition.
