MSI unveils 9cm fan on R4870-MD1G

MSI International, has unveiled the R4870-MD1G and R4870-MD512
graphics cards. MSI designed these two cards to be perfect for gamers
demanding performance, quality, and low-temperature operation by
equipping them with an extra large fan, an extra cool cooling system,
and extra long lifespan components. The entire card features best
class solid capacitors and SSC (solid-state chokes) built-in to the
design that helps to smoothly handle high-power levels and punch-out
amazing performance. The solid design also helps to extend the cards
total lifespan. Featuring all three - HDMI, DVI and D-Sub (VGA) -
major display output, these two cards are sure to please those looking
for big-screen LCD monitor or LCD TV display.


Extra large 9cm fan

The R4870-MD1G and R4870-MD512 both equip a surprisingly large 9cm fan
which provides high heat dissipation with low noise. The majority of
graphics cards use an 8cm fan, which, when running at around 3500~3800
rpm, can create 35 cubic feet per minute (CFM) of air flow along with
a rather loud noise. However, the R4870-MD1G and R4870-MD512's 9cm
large fan runs about 1000 rpm less (~2800 rpm) and produces a whopping
56 CFM air flow. This difference is a 60% increase in efficiency,
while, at the same time, creating a quieter environment because of the
slower speed. The two cards also equip a copper base, big heatsink
area and dual heatpipes design. Coupled with the enlarged fan,
compared to reference design, this total cooling solution can lower
the ATI 4870 card's average temperature down by 20°C! Who said the ATI
Radeon HD 4870 is a heat monster? MSI is able to offer a cool and
quiet model to this famous card using its unique c
