[TD] [h=2]MSI Exclusive Twin Frozr II Cooling Design[/h]

The MSI N500 Twin Frozr II series graphics cards feature the advanced Twin Frozr II Thermal Design. To decrease operating temperatures by up to 20°C, MSI has integrated it’s engineering expertise to create the ultimate Thermal Design.The GPU area is covered with a large surface area heat sink with a copper base, ensuring the best possible contact surface with the GPU. Surrounding components like Memory and PWM components are covered by a large unibody heat sink mold. With heat pipes with MSI’s SuperPipe technology, excess heat is transferred quickly to a high density Aluminium cooling fin grid. The low-noise fan setup, which includes two 8cm fans are temperature controlled PWM fans, ensuring excellent air flow to all parts of the Twin Frozr II Thermal Design while reducing sound levels up to 8.4dB.[/TD]
