<b>Game Cool</b>
<b>DirectCU II with 10mm Heatpipe</b>
<b>20% Cooler and 3X Quieter Performance</b>
Exclusive DirectCU II cooling technology outperforms reference designs with an exclusive 10mm heatpipe that transports 40% more heat away from the GPU — a first for the industry! The design also includes 1.5X-larger heat-dissipation: this means performance that's 20% cooler three-times (3X) quieter than reference for ultra-stable hardcore gaming with very low noise.
<b>Play Silent</b>
<b>Dual Wing-blade 0dB Fan Design</b>
<b>Max Air Flow with 105% More Air Pressure</b>
DirectCU II features dual 0dB fans engineered with a patented, new wing-blade design that delivers maximum air flow and improved 105% static pressure over the heat sink, while operating at 3X quieter volumes than reference cards. The 0dB fans also let you enjoy games like League of Legends® and StarCraft® in complete silence — because the fan stops completely when the GPU temperature remains below a set level.
