Overview

NEW WINDFORCE 3X 2 SLOT 450W cooling system
Keeping the same 450W Cooling capacity using only 2 slots, the New WINDFORCE 3X 450W cooling system is equipped with two 8mm and four 6mm cooper heat-pipes , inclined fans, and GIGABYTE “Triangle Cool” technology. This not only provides an effective heat dissipation capacity but GPU Boost 2.0 technology also enables higher performance due to a lower temperature.

OC GURU ll
Brand-new instinctive user interface, easier to monitoring and adjusting all important settings. Users can set up MONITORING, GPU CLOCK, MEMORY CLOCK,FAN, OSD, ONLINE SUPPORT and update driver, BIOS directly.
Up to 4 displays on a Single Card
In the Kepler architecture, support up to four displays on a single card. Satisfy your multi-screen setup, high definition and extreme gaming experience.
8-Phase power Design
Compared to the 6-phase reference design, the GV-N780OC-3GD provides a 
more stable voltage output while having the MOSFET working at lower 
temperatures. Moreover, temperature protection and load balance to each MOSFET 
can effectively extends the graphics card life.
