WINDFORCE 3X COOLING SYSTEM The WINDFORCE 3X cooling system features 3x 80mm unique blade fans, alternate spinning fan, 3composite copper heat pipes, heat-pipe direct touch and 3D active fan functionality, together delivering an effective heat dissipation capacity for higher performance at lower temperatures ALTERNATESPINNING The GIGABYTE “Alternate Spinning” is the only solution that can solve the turbulent airflow of three fans. The biggest problem with the three fans is turbulence. Since the fans rotate in the same direction, the airflow direction is opposite between the fans, which will cause turbulent airflow and reduce heat dissipation efficiency. GIGABYTE turns the middle fan in the opposite direction, so that the airflow direction between the two fans is the same, reducing the turbulence and enhancing the airflow pressure UNIQUE BLADE FAN The airflow is spilt by the triangular fan edge and guided smoothly through the 3D stripe curve on the fan surface, effectively enhancing the airflow. HEAT PIPES DIRECT TOUCH GPU The shape of the pure copper heat pipes maximizes the direct contact area with the GPU, enhancing heat transfer. The heat pipes also cover the VRAM through a large metal plate contact to ensure proper cooling. COMPOSITE HEAT-PIPE The composite heat-pipe combines thermal conductivity and phase transition to efficiently manage the heat transfer between two solid interfaces which increase cooling capacity. RGB LIGHTING With 16.7M customizable colour options and numerous lighting effects, you can choose lighting effects or synchronize with other AORUS devices by RGB Fusion 2.0 software. EXTREME DURABILITY AND OVERCLOCKING The graphics card uses 4+2 power phases design to allow the MOSFET to operate at lower temperature, and over-temperature protection design and load balancing for each MOSFET, plus the Ultra Durable certified chokes and capacitors, to provide excellent performance and longer system life. (Reference Card is 3+2 power phases.)
