- Dual PWM Fan
Provides up to 50% better thermal efficiency and direct air flow to cool down power module(MOSFET, Capacitors), memory and GPU.
- Multiple Heatpipes
Transfer heat to the fins under the dual PWM fans, and the fans dissipate heat directly.
- Triple-layer design
Fine, heatpipes, and copper base are all connected together; creates the shortest path to dissipate the heat of GPU, and to improve the cooling performance.
- Extra Large Copper-inckel Base
Dissipates heat from GPU to each fin, faster than traditional aluminum base.
- Extra Large Heatsink

MSI exclusive Military Class
- Hi-c CAP (Highly-Conductive Capacitor)
The core of Hi-c CAP is "Trantalum", an extremely rare metal which can be rival to Platinum when it comes to stability. MSI use Hi-c CAP on GPU power supply module, regulate GPU voltage to achieve highest stability and overclocking.
