The GECUBE RADEON® X700PRO series graphics cards include advanced GECUBE SilenCoolTM Heat pipe design for drastically reduced noise generated by high-performance graphics processing, providing consumers with the most quiet graphics operating environment on the market. This is currently the only silent Heat pipe solution available for this graphics card market segment.
