This is the allnew Windforce cooler that takes advantage of a composite of a couple of different heatpipe technologies. So, it has like a textured inside as well as micro grooves that allow it to more easily take the cooled liquid and then move it back to the GPU where it needs to be heated up and then evaporated again. I mean, that's the basic principle of how heat pipes work. What this allows Gigabyte to do is between those high performance heat pipes. Check how thick those ones are. Between those high performance heat pipes and the overall mass of the cooler, they are able to build coolers for the GTX 770, 780, and Titan that are capable of dissipating 450 watts within what is still a two slot profile. Now, hold on a minute. Is that what what's going on here? Is that an aftermarket cooled Titan? 6 gig 6 gigs of memory aftermarket cooling. No one's allowed to do that. Gigabyte is going to be releasing this as a bundle. So, you'll actually get it with a stock Titan cooler on it, instructions, and a Windforce cooler so that you can swap out the cooler on your own, giving you the advantages that come with better GPU cooling, particularly with GPU Boost 2.0. Now, GPU Boost 2.0 0 allows you to not only set up your overclocking profiles by power as well as by um clock speed and voltage, but also by temperature. So, when you have a lower temperature on your card, you are going to actually legitimately get better performance whether you're a hardcore overclocker or not, which hasn't been true necessarily with other graphics cards in the past. Now, they've got a practical demonstration of this, which I thought was pretty cool. The maximum temperature, well, recommended temperature from NVIDIA for a GK 1110 or GK 104 is around 95°. So, they've got a variety of different heat loads that you can apply to this elaborate setup here with the Windforce cooler on it. You can see our ambient temperature here, which is about 30 31°. You can see the heat load being applied to the Windforce cooler. And then you can see right here the temperature that it maintains the card at. So the TDPs of these cards are only actually 250 watts, but even applying in excess of 400 watts to this cooler, we are not breaking the highest we've seen it is around 80° and change a little above that.
