Windforce 2x Cooling System

The WINDFORCE 2X cooling system features two 90mm unique blade fans, alternate spinning, 3 composite copper heat pipes direct touch GPU, 3D active fan and Screen cooling, which together provide high efficiency heat dissipation.

Alternate Spinning

The GIGABYTE “Alternate Spinning” is the only solution that can solve the turbulent airflow of adjacent fans. Since the adjacent 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 adjacent fans 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

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.

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.

Heat Pipes Direct Touch

The shape of the pure copper heat pipe maximizes the direct contact area with the GPU, enhancing heat transfer. The heat pipe also covers the VRAM through a large metal plate contact to ensure proper cooling.

Graphene Nano Lubricant

Graphene nano lubricant can extend the life of fan by 2.1 times, close to the life of double ball bearing, and is quieter.

Screen Cooling

Extended heatsink design allows air flow to pass through, providing better heat dissipation.

Built Strong

Tiny Size with Mighty Performance

For gamers who prefer a small build with powerful performance, GIGABYTE delivers a compact graphics card with less than 200mm in length. The card provides mighty performance and is easy to install in any small chassis as well.

Protection Back Plate

The back plate not only provides an aesthetical shape, but also enhances the structure of the graphics card to provide complete protection.

Ultra Durable

Ultra Durable certified highest-grade metal chokes, lower ESR solid capacitors, 2oz copper PCB, and lower RDS(on) MOSFETs, plus over-temperature design to deliver superior performance and longer system life.

Friendly PCB Design

Fully automated production process ensures top quality of the circuit boards and eliminates sharp protrusions of the solder connectors seen on the conventional PCB surface. This friendly design prevents your hands from getting cut or inadvertently damaging components when making your build.

Gigabyte Control Center

GIGABYTE CONTROL CENTER (GCC) is a unified software for all GIGABYTE supported products. It provides an intuitive interface that allows users to adjust clock speed, voltage, fan mode and power target in real-time.
