Benefits of Lower RDS(on) MOSFETs? Optimized gate charge to minimize switching losses. Lower temperature, smaller size, better thermal characteristics. Advanced Thermal Design MOSFET Heatsinks Multiple cuts on heatsinks improves thermal performance by increasing heat dissipation surface and maintain stylish aesthetic. Thick Thermal Pad Improved thickness of the thermal pad to 1.5mm, gives superior heat dissipation of MOSFETs. Pre-installed I/O ShieldWith an integrated I/O shield, building an GIGABYTE Ultra Durable PC is even easier. Support for DDR4 to 4266MHz and BeyondGIGABYTE is offering a tested and proven platform that ensures proper compatibility to 4266MHz and beyond. 2-Way CrossFire™ Multi-GraphicsMulti-graphics configuration offers better graphics performance for gaming enthusiasts who demand the highest frame rates without compromising on resolution.Immersive VR Gaming Experience > VR requires more performance than Full HD graphics for a steady 90FPS or greater. > Only Gaming PCs can provide the best VR experience.Recommended configuration for VR Gaming PC Graphics Card: NVIDIA GTX 1060 / AMD RX 480 or greater, Compatible HDMI 1.4 video output CPU: Intel 8th Gen.
