We're not particularly fond of needlessly bundled software, so the lack of outdated games and otherwise free-to-download demos isn't a worry. Designed new from the ground up, this single-slot cooler aims to strike a nice balance between superior cooling and acceptable noise levels. But other manufacturers have their own cooling solutions, nviria, and ThermoIntelligence already has plenty of competition.
In fact, this ThermoIntelligence design is so subtle that you might not give it a second glance just sitting there on the card. We've already covered the series in depth, so I won't rehash the finer points of getorce features and architecture here.
