Twin Frozr -Dual-Fan Thermal Design
- Dual Fan Design: Cools down GPU and other graphics card components (such as capacitors or memory).
- Five Heat pipes(2 of them are SuperPipe) : Transfer heat away from the GPU to the cooling fins for dissipation. The thicker the heatpipe, the more heat it can transfer, the faster it dissipates, and the better its overall thermal efficiency.
- Huge heatsink: All-Metal design provides better heat conduction.
MSI SuperPipe Technology
- 8mm extra thick heatpipe
- 60% thicker than traditional heatpipe
- 90% better cooling
- Thickest heatpipe used on graphics card
Key Messages
- Power consumption is lower , space occupancy in chassis is smaller, and heat generating is less.
- 240 enhanced processing cores
- 50% faster in game over last generation
- 100% offload H.264 playback loading from CPU
