As stated the card remains passive thanks to its cooling solution, up-to a GPU temperature of 60 Degrees C the fans does not even spin. Once they do they'll try and vent some warm air out of the rear plate. However as you can see already, heat travels upwards and the radiator surface area is not contained, so most warm air will be dumped inside the chassis. As we always state, chassis ventilation is a must.
The cooler is impressive in both performance but also size, that's 31,7 cm / 12,48 inches of graphics card right there. Please always do make sure that the card physically fits inside your chassis as it is rather lengthy. For those that wonder, the board is equipped with Micron GDDR5 memory ICs. An 8+3 phase power supply is responsible for supplying the GP104 GPU with power.
The LED system can be controlled. The top logo is configurable in displaying millions of colors and six different effects for a personalized gaming system and, thus, easily configurable.
And yes, I do think that is a nice looking product with the chrome accents and white. Again, I am not a fan of too many logos.
The top side Hall of Fame logo can be enabled/disabled and colored to a color of your preference. On the front facing side there otherwise are not any other RGB LED thingies going on. However ...
When you mount the graphics card into your PC, the top facing side is the backside, GALAX added a little LED lit Hall of Fame logo here. Initially, I figured that to be an LCD display, it isn't though. It will only show the logo in a configurable variety of colors.
