WINDFORCE 3X
COOLING SYSTEM
The WINDFORCE 3X cooling system features 3x80mm unique blade fans, alternate spinning, 3 composite copper heat pipes direct touch GPU, 3D active fan and Screen cooling, which together provide high efficiency heat dissipation.

ALTERNATE SPINNING
Alternate Spinning can reduce the turbulence of adjacent fans and increase air pressure.
SMOOTH AIRFLOW
GIGABYTE turns the adjacent fans in the opposite direction, so that the airflow direction between the two fans is the same, reducing the turbulence and enhancing the airflow pressure.
3D ACTIVE FAN
The 3D Active Fan provides semi-passive cooling, and the fans will remain off when the GPU is in a low load or low power game.

UNIQUE BLADE FAN
The airflow is spilt by the triangular fan edge, and guided smoothly through the 3D stripe curve on the fan surface.

GRAPHENE NANO LUBRICANT
Graphene nano lubricant can extend the life of fan by 2.1 times, close to the life of double ball bearing, and is quieter.

SCREEN COOLING
Extended heatsink design allows air flow to pass through, providing better heat dissipation.

HEAT PIPES DIRECT TOUCH
The shape of the pure copper heat pipe maximizes the direct contact area with the GPU. The heat pipe also covers the VRAM through a large metal plate contact to ensure proper cooling.

PROTECTION BACK PLATE
The back plate not only provides an aesthetical shape, but also enhances the structure of the graphics card to provide complete protection.

EXTREME DURABILITY AND OVERCLOCKING
The graphics card uses the better power phase design to allow the MOSFET to operate at lower temperature, and over-temperature protection design and load balancing for each MOSFET, plus the Ultra Durable certified chokes and capacitors, to provide excellent performance and longer system life.

FRIENDLY PCB DESIGN
Fully automated production process ensures top quality of the circuit boards and eliminates sharp protrusions of the solder connectors seen on the conventional PCB surface. This friendly design prevents your hands from getting cut or inadvertently damaging components when making your build.
AORUS ENGINE
The cutting edge intuitive interface allows you to adjust the clock speed, voltage, fan performance and power target in real-time according to your game’s requirements.

Overall Review: Arrived sooner than Newegg initially stated and undamaged. RX 6600 Xt is surprisingly good. Roughly 50% performance uplift over my GTX 1660 Super. Though I can tell the memory is just a bit slower when loading some texture intensive indie games. (Beam.ng Drive) It runs about 75c under extended load. Draws around 140w. Stock core clock boosting into the 2600's. After a few weeks of burn in, I'll see what I can squeeze out of it with an OC. I did reduce the max fan speed to 65%. The fans can go 5000rpm+ if left on their own. Which is definitely not quiet. But around 2500rpm, the cooling is sufficient and the noise level is average. I am running on pcie 4, Ryzen 3600 so no SAM capability to test. Card handles gameplay recording without a hitch. Maybe a few fps lost if measuring, but not noticeable otherwise. All in all a good mid-range card. Handles my dual 1080p displays just fine. All ports are working, thought the HDMI ports were not initially. Installing drivers solved that.
