Then that expelled heat increases the temperature of other components. If you go for a passive solution, then more case airflow is required to dissipate that heat. the best solution IMO would be a two slot cooler that dissipates the GPU heat out the back of the card - like the Arctic Cooling Silencer series. That way you can use whatever GPU you requre, and still have a cooling solution that doesnt contribute to the temperature inside the case.</p></blockquote><p></p>
