Not only does the Mmcp+ help to disperse excess heat, but being as its two separate plates, the GPU can be cooled individually (say via a LN2 Pot), while still being able to cool the mosfets.Īnother excellent feature of the GTX 980 K|NGP|N edition is the capability to use a single slot PCI-E bracket (Included). EVGA has also fine-tuned the cooling performance, making it possible for the GTX 980 K|NGP|N edition to run purely on passive cooling when below 60 degrees Celsius, allowing for a totally silent experience.ĮVGA has also equipped the GTX 980 K|NGP|N edition graphics card with an aesthetically appealing set of memory and mosfets cooling plates (Mmcp+). ![]() The card is kept cool by a meaty ACX 2.0 cooling system which is neatly concealed below a metal cooling shroud.

Needless to say it wasn’t long before overclocking friendly companies stopped to take notice of Vince’s talents. The Detroit local started accumulating a number of overclocking world records across various categories CPU, GPU and multi GPU categories. But as he progressed, gaming soon took a sideline to what was quickly becoming a passion, overclocking. ![]() Vince started overclocking, about 12 years ago in 2003, as a way to play the latest games on his existing hardware.
