2X Copper PCB
Smart Fan 6
GIGABYTE Motherboards' Un-throttled performance is guaranteed by innovative and optimized thermal design to ensure the best CPU, Chipset, SSD stability and low temperatures under full load application and gaming performance.
1. Fully Covered MOSFET Heatsink
• Real One-piece Build
TMOS is a TRUE single piece heatsink. Its one-piece design and larger surface drastically improve the cooling performance against competitors’ multi-piece design.
• 2X Large Surface
Increased surface area up to 2X larger compared to traditional heatsinks. It improves heat dissipation from the MOSFETs.
• Multi-Cut Design
Both TMOS & RMOS heatsinks with multiple channels and inlets featured which lead the air flow going through more efficiently and cause a great improvement of heat transfer performance.
2. M.2 Thermal Guard
Built-in M.2 heatsinks prevent high-speed, large capacity PCIe SSDs from throttling due to overheating.
3. 8mm Mega-Heatpipe
8mm Mega-Heatpipe has 30% wider diameter than traditional 6mm heatpipe and is able to transfer more heat under same time period.
4. 7 W/mK Thermal Pad
5. 8-Layer & 2X Copper PCB
2X COPPER PCBs design effectively lower the component temperature by its high thermal conductivity and low impedance.
1. AORUS M.2 Thermal Guard
GIGABYTE Ultra-Efficient M.2 Thermal Guard
With durability in mind, GIGABYTE provides a thermal solution for M.2 SSD devices. The M.2 Thermal Guard prevents throttling and bottlenecks from high speed M.2 SSDs as it helps to dissipate heat before it becomes an issue.
Thermal Throttling As Temperature Rises
3% Cooler by implementing
2X copper PCB Design
By adopting 2X copper on PCB inner layer, it lowers the components' temperature at least 3%
by
turning the PCB into a super thin PCB size copper heatsink to dissipate the heat from the
components effectively, due to it’s high thermal conductivity and lower impedance.
SMART FAN 6
Smart Fan 6 contains several unique cooling features that ensure gaming PC maintain its performance while staying cool and quiet.
