The WINDFORCE 3X cooling system features 3 pure copper composite heat-pipes, special fin architecture, unique blade fan design, together delivering an effective heat dissipation capacity for higher performance at lower temperatures.
<b>Unique Blade Fan Design</b>
The airflow is spilt by the triangle fan edge, and guided smoothly through the 3D stripe curve on the fan surface, effectively enhancing the air flow by 23% over traditional fans.
<b>3D Active Fan with LED Indicators</b>
The semi-passive fans will remain off when the GPU is under a set loading or temperature for low power gaming. The LED fan indicator on the top of the graphics card provides an instant display of the fan status.
<b>Composite heat-pipes</b>
The composite heat-pipes combines both thermal conductivity and phase transition for efficiently managing the transfer of heat between two solid interfaces which increases 29% of cooling capacity.
<b>Heat Pipe Direct Touch</b>
The pure copper heat pipes are shaped to maximize the direct contact area to the GPU.
<b>16.8M Customizable Color Lighting</b>
With 16.8M customizable color options and numerous lighting effects, you could now choose the right scheme for your gaming rig through XTREME Engine utility.
<b>Stylish Metal Back Plate</b>
The metal back plate offers rigidity and protection to the structure, while adding a sleek, clean look to the product.
<b>One-click Super overclocking</b>
With a simple click on XTREME Engine utility, gamers can easily tune the card to meet their various gaming requirements without any overclocking knowledge, while saving the hassle of manual adjustment.
<b>GPU Gauntlet™ Sorting</b>
Forged with only the top-notch GPU, the Gigabyte G1 GAMING graphics cards guarantee higher overclocking capability in terms of excellent power switching, ensuring the highest performance without compromising system reliability.
<b>Smart Power LED indicators</b>
Be alert when PCI-E voltage is unstable with the smart power LED indicator.
<b>Ultra Durable Materials</b>
Engineered with the highest-grade chokes and capacitors, this graphic card delivers outstanding performance and durable system lifespan.
<b>Built for OverClocking with 8+2 power phases</b>
Compared to founders edition, the 8+2 power phases on the card make the MOSFET working at a lower temperature and provide more stable voltage output.
