PRESS RELEASE
Active cooling with silent semi-passive fan design unleashes impressive gaming performance
Taipei, Taiwan, 22nd January 2015 - GIGABYTE, the world's leading premium gaming hardware manufacturer, today announced GTX 960 G1 Gaming graphics card,GV-N960G1 GAMING-2GD, the latest addition to the G1 Gaming family. For enhanced gameplay experiences, the new G1 Gaming graphics card powered by GTX 960 is engineered to deliver powerful overclock capabilities and amazing acoustic performance when running all the latest game titles.
Power up and go Super Overclock
The performance-driven GIGABYTE GTX 960 G1 Gaming graphics card is forged with only the top-notch GPU core through the very own GPU Gauntlet Sorting technology that guarantees greater overclocking capabilities in terms of excellent power switching and thermal efficiency.
The card further boasts 160W of total board power, which is backed by a 6-phase GPU power design that effectively extends the overall stability and longevity with lower component temperature. It ultimately allows greater overclocking headroom, reinforcing higher, stable boost clocks at heavy load during 3D games, bringing gamers with extra gaming performance.
Game in silence with new WINDFORCE 3X cooling
The highly acclaimed WINDFORCE 3X cooling system allows the air flow to pass smoothly through the fan blades with the special 3D stripe curve design, effectively enhancing air flow by 23% while reducing air turbulence for more efficient heat dissipation capacity up to 300W.
The GTX 960 G1 Gaming also adds the new silent semi-passive fan profile to the system, as the fans remain off when the GPU is under a set loading or temperature for low power gaming. Gamers could enjoy an absolutely silent gaming experience when playing light MOBA (multiplayer online battle arena) games like League of Legends®[1].
Even when running the most demanding content, the G1 Gaming graphics card keeps the acoustics well in check under 20dB, ensuring noise does not get in the way. A pair of LED fan indicators on the side of the card provides an instant display of the fan status.
Flex Display technology (patent-pending)
Like other GIGABYTE G1 Gaming graphics cards, the GTX 960 G1 Gaming takes advantage of the Flex Display technology as well with automatic output detection andtwo dual-link DVI support in addition to the 3 DisplayPort and 1 HDMI. This patent-pending technology provides gamers seeking multi-display configuration with much more flexible output connectivity options compared to the competition.
Suit the ways you game
With the introduction of the GTX 960 G1 Gaming, GIGABYTE at the same time releases the OC Edition GV-N960WF2OC-2GD and GV-N960IXOC-2GD. Each card is equipped with respective GIGABYTE technologies and innovations for all various gaming needs.
The GV-N960WF2OC-2GD is reinforced with WINDFORCE 2X cooling system with two 90mm unique blade fans to keep the graphics card extremely cool and quiet at peak performance. The card also features the new semi-passive fan design for creating a complete silent gaming environment. Measuring 17cm in length, the compactly powerful GV-N960IXOC-2GD is the value variant of the GTX 960 ideal for applications based on budget builds.
