GAMING SLIM series is a thinner variant of GAMING series while maintaining high performance capabilities and aggressive looks. Lightened design is made for those building a gaming rig with space constraints. Elevate performance with TRI FROZR 3 cooling and its key features – TORX FAN 5.0, Core Pipe, and Airflow Control. Stay cool and quiet. MSI’s TRI FROZR 3 thermal design enhances heat dissipation all around the graphics card. Heat from the GPU and memory modules is immediately captured by a solid nickel-plated copper baseplate and then rapidly transferred to an array of heat pipes. This widening of the thermal transfer systems with highly efficient mechanisms improves overall efficiency. Core Pipes are precision-crafted to make maximum use of the available space. A squared section of heat pipes fully touch the GPU baseplate and spread the heat along the full length of the heatsink. Airflow Control improves airflow dynamics through the Wave Curved 2.0 and updated deflectors design for optimizing the balance between cooling and quieter acoustics. A large airflow vent on the backplate allows exhaust air to pass through directly. Dual BIOS gives you the choice to prioritize full performance in GAMING mode or low noise in SILENT mode. A bundled support bracket can be attached to your PC case for additional graphics card reinforcement.
