This is coupled, of course, with a heavy duty heatsink that is now perforated with channels to increase airflow and heat dissipation. The Precision software allows for both a “Quiet” and “Aggressive” cooling presets, as well as custom fan curves for temperatures of 0 to 100 degrees celsius. This type of advanced monitoring not only works to keep the entire card cooler but also allows for improved overclocking capabilities.ĭual fan control is a feature that seems so small that it could be a gimmick, yet it’s anything but. Based on its readings, the card will intelligently adjust the speed of each fan to actively cool both elements independently. Using multiple sensors allows the Precision X OC software to accurately monitor the temperatures of both the GPU and the onboard memory modules instead of just the GPU like other graphics cards. The new system features nine separate thermal sensors and combines them with asynchronous control of the SC2’s dual fans. ICX is the kind of cooling system that makes you wonder why we haven’t been doing this all along. From those concerns, the iCX cooling system was born. EVGA made it right, sending out thermal pads to address the issue. Last year, the company received feedback following temperature concerns of some of their users. EVGA’s GTX 1080SC2 has something to prove.
