MSI GeForce N570 Twin Frozr III Power Edition OC Review

The Twin Frozr coolers stand out, as they are constructed from metal, rather than flimsy plastic materials. The dual fans are ‘propeller blade' designs, which angle the air flow for increased performance, while reducing noise.

The card is built around a proprietary, dark brown custom PCB design.

It is SLI capable, in 2 and 3 way configurations.

It requires power from two 6 pin PCI E connectors for stable operation.

There are two DVI connectors on the backplate, and a single mini HDMI connector. MSI include a converter for connection to a standard sized HDMI cable.

The card is a custom design from MSI and it incorporates metal plates to aid with cooling of memory and other PCB components.

The metal cooler is very heavy, featuring 5 thick heatpipes. Three of these heatpipes connect to a rack of aluminum fins on one side of the GPU with two more joining into another smaller rack of fins on the opposite side. Both fans are hardwired into a single connector.

A GPUz overview of the hardware. This card is clocked higher than a reference board, increased to 770mhz core and 1000mhz from the 1280MB of GDDR5 memory which is connected via a 320 bit memory interface. The GF110 core has 480 CUDA cores and 40 ROPS.
