ASUS 7970 Matrix Question [Fan Rotation]

[smogsy]

how do the fan speeds?

Do they blow on to the card & out the Back or on to the card out in to the case?

if they do blow into the case does the front one below towards the front of the case?

searched on the web cant find anything about rotation

Matrix Plat is a dumper. It dumps its heat in the case.

ok, do you know if the front fan [closets to the front of the case] blows out the side or out front of the case towards the front of the case?

that what i cannot work out.

It should be blowing cold air onto the gpu, assuming its facing the correct way.

 

[smogsy]

sorry must be confusing you.

after it blows on to the gpu where does the hot air escape?

my wind force blow hot air out the towards the front of the case after blowing on to the cooler. which ment putting as fans blowing directly on the card was pointless. does the matrix do the same? or does below out where the matrix logo is?

as example

A small amount of heat might go out the rear. 95% of it will go out the roof of the card. Most of it will be from the vrms near the pci-e sockets. Some will come out near the core by the first fan.

your brilliant +1x5

If you run it at 100% fan speed and open your case you will have no doubt of where the air is going!

 

[Yaayuh!]

Everywhere!

It'll be going everywhere you dont want it to.
