3X100MM STACK FANS

The 3x 100mm stack fans provide larger and more smooth airflow. And with more heatsink coverage than other standard triple fans, WINDFORCE stack fans have better cooling performance.

ALTERNATE SPINNING

The GIGABYTE patent “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.

Smooth Airflow

better heat dissipation

STANDARD SPINNING

Turbulent Airflow

worse heat dissipation

3x 100mm Stack fans

Much more heatsink coverage by strong and smooth airflow.

3x 80mm Standard fans

There is no airflow in the junction of 2 fans, resulting a smaller heatsink coverage.

UNIQUE BLADE FAN

The airflow is spilt by the triangle fan edge, and guided smoothly through the 3D stripe curve on the fan surface, effectively enhancing the airflow.

3D ACTIVE FAN

The 3D Active Fan provides semi-passive cooling, and the fans will remain off when the GPU is in a low load or low power game. It allows gamers to enjoy gameplay in complete silence when the system is running light or idle. The LED fan indicator on the top of the graphics card provides an instant display of the fan status.

DOUBLE BALL BEARING

The double ball bearing structure has better heat endurance and efficiency than sleeve structure.

ANGULAR FIN DESIGN

The angular and unequal fins height does not only channel the airflow through the fins and enlarge the contact surface but also results in a lower noise level and better cooling capacity.

LARGE COPPER BASE PLATE

With direct contact to the GPU and VRAM, the large copper base plate combines the composite heat pipes to efficiently transfer heat generated from the interior cores to the heat sink.

ADVANCED COPPER BACK PLATE COOLING

Excessive heat from GPU not only gets dissipated utilizing the massive cooling module in the front but also through the back side with a copper plate, providing a well-rounded thermal solution for the GPU.

ADVANCED COPPER BACK PLATE COOLING

THE STRIPE MATTERS

With the better system airflow, the direction of the copper plate will help to increase the cooling performance.

COMPOSITE HEAT-PIPE

The composite heat-pipe combines thermal conductivity and phase transition to efficiently manage the heat transfer between two solid interfaces which increases cooling capacity.
