The highly praised Dual Cooling from Sapphire is powered by two solid yet quiet fans and a state-of-the-art cooler design. The new shape of the hybrid fan blades allows for greater airflow and better heatsink coverage with reduced noise compared to standard cooling designs. To protect your card, Sapphire cards feature a fuse in the circuit of the external PCIe power connector to safeguard the components. The high-quality aluminum backplate not only adds style but also protects the components on the back of the PCB and helps dissipate heat from the PCB, with a high-performance thermal pad in between. The fans are equipped with dual ball bearings, which in our tests showed about 85% longer lifespan than sleeve bearings. The improvements to the fan blades mean that the solution is up to 10% quieter than the previous generation. The composite heat pipes of the Sapphire Radeon RX 6X50 series are finely tuned for optimal heat flow for each individual cooling design, efficiently and evenly distributing heat across the entire cooling module.
