Full copper heatsink. Soldered heatsink with pipes. Slightly higher oc-ed out of the box than standard gaming. This copper heatsink will make it constant 50deg on idle without fan moving. Unlike the normal gaming, it will rise till 59deg before turning on the fan to cool it down.
Very easy to dissipate heat as compared to gaming. On idle, plus a wall fan blowing at you, the heat can stay at 38deg lol.
On full load gaming, this card can perform extra cool than the normal gaming edition, in fact almost the same temp as going under water for the r9 290 lol. Full load on max details Shadow of Mordor, Max temp 65deg. Oc it by a 100mhz more also max temp 67deg.
Went thru revision 1.1 where the gaming still 1.0.
The revision is vrey impt. Did MSI highlight out or put big big on box?
