I'm seeing Vega and the nvida branded cards all have blower style fans now
Should we be looking for blower fan gpus vs the 2 and 3 fan gpu,?
well basically custom heat sink are better so 2 and 3 fan gpu cards can be way cooler and last longer specially for mining in the long term i have few turbo 1 fan 1070 and 1080s they reach 74 or even 80 easily because they only have one fan.
So why are all the official video card makers AMD and Nvidia making blower styles now for their flagship models?
If 2 or 3 fans are better then 1 in cooling why have AMD and Nvidia crippled their flagship line up?
I sit here with cash in hand trying to figure it out. I have an msi areo 1070 that's a blower style. The only thing I think it does is keep everything cool. I hear the 2 and 3 fans the heat stays around the case and makes all the components really hot.. the whole card gets hot where my gpu is not hot to the touch
So now if after market 3 fan gpus are better then Nvidia which has been the best permorminl
Because the goal of a reference design is to demonstrate the capabilities of the new architecture. Blower style coolers work across a variety of configurations, where open fan designs might not. Developing optimal coolers also takes away from their R&D capital without changing the underlying architecture, which is why it's more of an aftermarket thing left for partners to develop.
