This summer’s major events on the hardware front can be summed up in a nutshell with graphics cards in the enthusiast class. The component giant Gigabyte therefore took the opportunity to interrupt the holiday with a competition at SweClockers, where the members, by inventing a new function for future models, got the chance to win a Geforce GTX 980 Ti Gaming for SEK 7,990.

TubularBoy | I think modular cooling solutions would be something to see in the future. The graphics card comes with a copper base mounted over the core and memories, then you can choose between water cooling, heatpipe with fan solutions or a combination of both that are screwed to the block. In this way, you get a modular cooling package that can fit a number of models and without having to worry about damaging the electronics during assembly. |
Modular designs and freedom of choice are a hot trend among enthusiasts. With the proposal for a basic copper base over important components and traditional air cooling or water solution as an option, a unanimous jury appoints the member TubularBoy to winner of Gigabyte’s latest worsting model. Congratulations to SweClockers!
The winners are contacted via the forum’s internal system for private messages (PM) and have two weeks to respond to the message, otherwise new winners will be chosen.
