ASUSTeK Computer Inc (ASUS), a leading provider of high-quality graphics solutions, today introduces the EAX1300PRO SILENT/TD/256M graphics card. The card is not only CrossFire ready, but also features the ASUS patented GPU-on-the-back ReverseCool® Technology, which delivers high-efficiency cooling at absolute quiet 0db. Powered by the ATi RADEON® X1300PRO, and incorporating various ASUS exclusive features, the EAX1300PRO SILENT/TD/256M provides a superb visual experience.
“We are pleased to deliver one of the world's best PCI Express graphics solutions,” said Kent Chien, Director of ASUS Graphics Business. “With the introduction of the EAX1300 Series powered by the RADEON VPU and ASUS cooling technologies, ATI and ASUS are enabling customers to experience the full benefits of PCI Express.”
ReverseCool – Fan-less and noiseless cooling technology
The Extreme AX1300PRO SILENT/TD/256M adopts a unique cooling solution that positions the GPU (graphics processing unit) and heatsink on the backside of the graphics card, placing them directly in the airflow path of the CPU fan for fast heat dissipation.
Besides providing larger heat exchange area, the extended heatsink takes on a clamshell design, which enables users to open up the heatsink, like a clamshell phone, for enhanced ventilation. By leveraging the CPU fan, the all-new ASUS graphics card is fan-less and operates at 0dB for quiet computing.
The EAX1300 Pro Silent will be priced around £68 ex. VAT and available in the channel early February.
