SAPPHIRE + AMD RADEON
AWARD-WINNING DESIGN, TOP PERFORMANCE
Revolutionary FinFET 14 nm technology empowers the SAPPHIRE NITRO+ Radeon™ RX
480 graphics card to operate efficiently with low power consumption, staying
cool and quiet. Great performance per watt results were achieved thanks to a
multitude of custom AMD enhancements applied on top of a tiny Polaris chip.
NEW DUAL-X COOLING
SAPPHIRE's acclaimed Dual-X Cooling is powered by two massive yet silent fans
and state-of-the-art radiator design. The new form of our 95 mm blades means
greater airflow and superior heatsink coverage at lower noise compared to
standard cooling designs. With NITRO Free Flow, we’ve redesigned the airflow
of the entire card and board, so that the hot air is expelled through the system
fan instead, rapidly dissipating heat.
FREEING THE FLOW
In traditional graphics cards cooling design, some of the hot air hits the side
case of the chassis and bounces back to the fan inlet, increasing the working
temperature over time. Now with the NITRO Free Flow, that hot air is pushed out
through the vents on the backplate, reducing the bounce back effects to
minimum.
MINIMUM NOISE, MAXIMUM RELIABILITY
Two 95 mm fans with advanced airfoil section blades provide more powerful yet
quieter cooling versus smaller standard fans. With dust-repelling dual ball
bearings, Dual-X offers exceptional reliability.
