There have not been many details released, but from this teaser alone, we can see that it boasts two axial fans instead of a blower-type arrangement. This design just means that it exhausts heat into the case, rather than outside, complete with a full-fat ACM-G10 GPU that boasts 32 Xe cores. This dual-slot, dual-fan card also appears to have four DisplayPorts and one HDMI port, while four heat pipes deliver the thermal load to the fin stack on the integrated heatsink. Pricing has not yet been announced, although it’s expected to hit shelves this summer.
