Twin Frozr V - Cooler, Quieter, Better GAMING
With every new generation of GPUs comes more performance. With every new generation of MSI Twin Frozr we give you less noise and heat!. We’ve listened to all your requests and the new Twin Frozr V is smaller, features stronger fans, generates less noise, keeps your graphics card and its components cooler and matches perfectly with your MSI GAMING motherboard including some funky LED lightning. We’ve spent 18 months on the development of the Twin Frozr V, including field testing in gaming cafés to ensure the cards have the quality and stability to give you the FPS you need.


TORX Fan
Traditional Fan Blade
Maximizes downwards airflow and air dispersion to the massive heat sink below.
Dispersion Fan Blade
Generates more airflow to maximize air dissipation to heat sink.
Airflow Diagram
Advanced Dispersion Blade design generates 19% more airflow without increasing drag for supreme silent performance.


SuperSU PIPE
Enhanced dissipation efficiency
SuperSU Architecture is the best cooling solution for graphics cards. The GPU is cooled by a massive nickel-plated copper base plate connected to Super Pipes (8mm heat pipes) on the MSI GAMING series graphics card. Additionally, the new heat pipe layout increases efficiency by reducing the length of unused heat pipe and a special SU-form design.

Zero Frozr
Smart cooling, stay quiet.
MSI’s Twin Frozr V Thermal Designs are equipped with Zero Frozr technology which was first introduced by MSI back in 2008. Zero Frozr technology eliminates fan noise in low-load situations by stopping the fans when they are not needed. Compared to other graphics cards, there is no continuous hum of airflow to tell you there’s a powerful graphics card in your gaming rig. This means you can focus on gaming without the distraction of other sounds coming from your PC.


AIRFLOW CONTROL
Enhanced dissipation efficiency
MSI has fitted Twin Frozr coolers with the all new Airflow Control technology which guides more airflow directly onto the heat pipes by using special deflectors on the heat sink. In addition, this exclusive heat sink design increases heat sink surface area, greatly enhancing the dissipation efficiency.


GAMING APP
The latest version of the MSI Gaming App is expanded with MSI Scenamax technology (under the EyeRest tab) to provide you easy access to image quality improving technology in the easy comfort of the MSI Gaming App.
OC Mode
Maximum Performance through higher clock speeds and increased fan performance
Gaming Mode (Default)
The best balance between in-game performance and thermal
Silent Mode
The best environment for minimal fan noise

MSI Gaming app EyeRest Tab
Quickly adjust display settings to your visual needs. Expand the tab by clicking on the “eyecon” and select your preferred setting.
Eye Rest Mode
Helps you sleep and rest better by reducing the blue light balance of your screen to let your body acclimatize to the night time.
Gaming Mode
More intense colors and increased contrast let’s you live the gaming life as the creators meant it.
Movie Mode
Dynamically adjusts Gamma and Contrast ratios for the clearest movie viewing experience

Catching the Vibe with Cool LED Effects
Featuring a premium LED illuminated MSI GAMING Dragon to lighten the mood. This brand new function allows you to choose from 5 unique modes to set the right ambience for your gaming moments with just one click.


Afterburner
MSI Afterburner is the world’s favorite cross-vendor GPU overclocking tool. The easy interface gives access to the most detailed information about your graphics card and allows for tinkering with pretty much anything available on your graphics card.
Compatible with 64-bit Apps, available in many languages, including, Russian, Spanish, Chinese and Korean and completely customizable with many user-generated skins, everyone feels at home.
You can also run Afterburner on your iOS or Android smartphone and the built-in benchmarking utility Kombustor gives you insight in your Graphics Cards’ true performance.

Predator
A built-in screen and video capturing tool named Predator which captures your screen as still images or videos with the push of a button and allows you to capture and record your coolest, goofiest and most awesome gaming moments on your PC!

Military Class componentsOne of the deciding factors in performance is the quality of the components used. That is why MSI only uses MIL-STD-810G certified components for its Gaming cards because only these components have proven to be able to withstand the torturous circumstances of extreme gaming and overclocking. MSI’s Hi-c CAPs are tiny, and super-efficient capacitors. Their small footprint allows the installation of heat sinks and their high efficiency (93%) actually reduces the total thermal footprint of the card. Super Ferrite Chokes use a Ferrite core that is Super-Permeable. This allows the Super Ferrite Chokes to run at a 35 degree Celsius lower temperature, have a 30% higher current capacity, a 20% improvement in power efficiency and better overclocking power stability. Solid CAPs, with their aluminum core design, have been a staple in high-end mainboard designs and provide lower Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR) as well as its over-10-year lifespan.
Twin Frozr VMSI’s Twin Frozr series has been the definition of graphics card coolers in the PC industry. Kicking off the dual-fan trend, MSI today stays true to its design offering the best thermal and acoustic performance in its class. Two powerful Torx Fans provide massive airflow thanks to the new dispersion blade, generating 19% more airflow without increasing drag for supreme silent performance. Airflow Control technology guides more airflow directly onto the heat pipes by using special deflectors on the heat sink. In addition, this exclusive heat sink design increases heat sink surface area, greatly enhancing the dissipation efficiency.

Pros: Very quiet even with fans turned up high for comparison my Noctua 80mm on the cpu is louder than the gpu fans on high. MSI gaming app is pretty cool with preset clock profiles for the gpu,LED effects customizer and monitor color profile selection for gaming. Videos are on youtube now with people showing you that 4gb of Vram on the GTX960 is critical to running GTA5,Farcry 4,shadow of mordor at maxed out 1080p settings the vram usage is always around 3GB except SOMD it was consuming 4022mb of Vram roughly. in the 3 benchmark videos i saw the gameplay was smooth and hitting around 50-60fps. most review sites routinely state their hitting 1,500mhz on the core for overclocks thats pretty nice and does translate into free performance at stock voltages. gains will vary between titles. i can play anything on the market at great settings and with the gpu being DX12 ready the future feels not so overwhelming for now. Running it off my corsair CX430watt psu no problems what so ever. DSR tech from nvidia makes skyrim look amazing at 1440p ultra settings on my AOC 1920x1080 monitor A core i3 haswell 4150 is good enough to push this card and run the latest titles nice and smooth.
Cons: people still dont understand this card and how its compression/memory engine is better, all they see is 128bit bus and jump on the roll your eyes bandwagon. 4GB wont give any GPU instant FPS increases thats not the point of Vram, Its their in a large enough quantity to be able to load all the games assets for the gpu to process WITHOUT having to offload the games data to system memory which adds a latency penalty when that data is then needed causing game stutters or complete freezes for a few secs until it gets done playing catch up. no different then the windows OS needing X amount of ram to load programs and features without Thrashing the page file to death with R/W requests until the hard drive explodes. thats why i spent the extra 39$ and got this 4gb card and it was worth it. no point spending almost another $100 on a GTX970 when the 960 overclocked is nipping at it heels in benchmarks. Did not come with case badge swag? gamers like their stickers MSI . :-) honestly i dont see any cons, the card is top of its game, i knew what i was getting into and buying,
