TORX 2.0 FAN
TEAMWORK FOR GREATER STRENGTH
Just like in games, the exclusive MSI TORX 2.0 Fan technology uses the power 
of teamwork to allow the TWIN FROZR VI to achieve new levels of cool.
TORX 2.0 Fan design generates 22% more air pressure for supremely silent 
performance in the heat of battle.
 

Dispersion Fan Blade
has 
a steeper curved blade which accelerates the airflow, increasing its 
effectiveness.
Traditional Fan Blade
pushes 
down a steady airflow to the massive heatsink below.
ZERO FROZR-STAY UNDETECTED
First introduced in 2008 by MSI, ZeroFrozr technology has made its mark and 
is now the industry standard among graphics cards. It eliminates fan noise by 
stopping the fans in low-load situations. This means you can focus on gaming 
without the noise of spinning fans.
 
FANS SPINNING
During intense gaming or benchmarking
 
 
FANS STOP
Completely silent during idle, multimedia or 
light gaming
 
 
 
 
 
 
“If your TORX 2.0 fans stop, it’s time to push your gaming rig harder!”
CATCH THE VIBE WITH COOL LED EFFECTS
Each LED can be controlled individually by choosing any of the animation 
effects availiable in the MSI Gaming App, ranging from responding to your game 
sounds or music to steady light, breathing and flashing. Of course, you can also 
turn them off.
HEATSINK
Lurking under the cover of the GAMING graphics card is an engineering 
masterpiece designed to keep the graphics card cool. Every tiny detail of the 
intricate heatsink plays an essential part in providing a cool & quiet 
gaming experience.
AIRFLOW CONTROL TECHNOLOGY
Using advanced aerodynamics, Airflow Control Technology directs more air 
directly onto the TWIN FROZR VI heat pipes. The special deflectors on the heat 
sink enlarge the surface area, which means lower temperatures and better 
gaming.
Smooth Heat Pipes
Up to 80mm thick copper heat pipes with a smooth squared shape at the buttom 
maximize heat transfers from the surface of the copper base plate .
SOLID BASEPLATE
To temper the heat generated by a powerful GPU, MSI GAMING series graphics 
cards use a solid nickel-plated copper base plate. The base plate catches the 
heat from the GPU and transfers it to the heat pipes for dissipation so you can 
keep cool.
PREMIUM THERMAL COMPOUND
Every detail counts when it comes to creating the ultimate thermal design, 
which is why TWIN FROZR VI uses a premium thermal compound to make sure it 
outlives the competition
CLOSE QUARTERS COOLING
Below the heatsink you find the close quarters cooling which enables you to 
push the MSI GAMING card to the max
  - Rugged Anti Bending strip 
  
 - Memory Cooling Plate for stable & higher overclocks 
  
 - PWM Heatsink covering the length of the card to ensure cool 
  temperatures
 
EXTRA POWER INPUT
  - Larger PCB for extra cooling 
  
 - 8-Pin (150Watt) power connector
 
ENHANCED PWM DESIGN 
A 6-Phase PWM design with High Quality Military Class components ensures 
extreme reliability and superb overclockablity and enhanced efficiency.
Backplate
A powerful graphics card needs a strong build to harness its performance. MSI 
GAMING X graphics cards are fitted with a solid metal back plate to make it 
extra tough. The matte black finish completes the TWIN FROZR VI design to 
perfection.

THE FUTURE OF GAMING
