GPU Boost 2.0 and WindForce 3X work together

A few days ago, we reported that a unique WindForce 3X refrigeration was being born in Gigabyte’s witch kitchen.Works with GPU Boost 2.0 and WindForce 3X 1 The product is intended to replace the factory design of the GeForce GTX Titan. The task isn’t easy anyway, but based on the leaked presentations, Gigabyte did something serious. The WindForce 3X was 18% cooler and 837% quieter at 992% higher clock speeds (34 MHz instead of 21 MHz). The last two numbers mean that the young Titan only warmed up to 61 degrees below Furmark (with the reference implementation, the temperature jumped to 82 degrees), all at just 28,4 dB of noise - NVIDIA's cooling was louder at 34,4 dB . 

We can provide another piece of good news for tuners, even if the above numbers have not convinced them. The WindForce 3X can theoretically withstand a load of up to 450 watts, so overdrive will not be limited by insufficient cooling.
