MSI GeForce GTX 970 OC Edition Gaming Card
As far as high performance graphics cards go the GeForce GTX 970 is one of the best value cards around. NVIDIA has combined its latest Maxwell graphics technology with 4GB of video memory to easily power your HD monitors. The efficient MSI GTX 970 GAMING 4G can offer excellent gaming performance for an affordable price.
Airflow Control Technology
The Twin Frozr V Coolers have been fitted with the all new Airflow Control Technology from MSI which guides more airflow directly onto the heat pipes. The way it does this is by using special deflectors on the heat sink, this exclusive heat sink design increases the surface area, greatly enhancing the efficiency of the cooler.
Torx Fan
The Torx Fans for the Twin Frozr V have been designed to house there two types of fan blades, Firstly is the Traditional Fan Blade which maximizes downwards airflow and air dispersion to the massive heat sink below, the second is the Dispersion Fan Blade that generates more airflow to maximise the lateral dissipation to the heat sink.
SuperSU Pipe Architecture
The SuperSU Architecture is one of the best cooling solution available for graphics cards. On MSI GAMING series graphics cards the GPU is cooled by a massive nickel-plated copper base plate connected to Super Pipes (8mm heat pipes). Additionally, the new heat pipe layout increases efficiency by reducing the length of unused heat pipe and a special SU-form design.
Zero Frozr
The technology for Zero Frozr was first introduced by MSI back in 2008 and is now equipped on the latest MSI Twin Frozr V thermal design. In low-load situations Zero Frozr technology eliminates fan noise by stopping the fans when they are not needed. Compared to other graphics cards, there is no continuous hum of airflow this means you can focus on gaming without the distraction of other sounds coming from your PC.

Twin frozr V - cooler, quieter, better gaming
With every new generation of GPUs comes more performance. With every new generation of MSI Twin Frozr MSI give you less noise and heat! MSI have listened to all your requests and the Twin Frozr V is smaller, features stronger fans, generates less noise, keeps your graphics card and its components cooler and matches perfectly with your MSI gaming motherboard including some funky LED lightning. -
Military class components
One of the deciding factors in performance is the quality of the components used. That is why MSI only uses MIL-STD-810G certified components for its Gaming cards because only these components have proven to be able to withstand the torturous circumstances of extreme gaming and overclocking. -
Hi-c CAP
A Hi-c CAP is a very small, but super-efficient capacitor. Besides ensuring enough spacing around a CPU socket to install large coolers, it also allows for 93% energy efficiency. Thanks to Hi-c CAP's MSI mainboards are the most energy efficient in the market. -
Super ferrite chokes
Super Ferrite Chokes use a Ferrite core that is Super-Permeable. This allows the Super Ferrite Chokes to run at a 35 degree Celsius lower temperature, have a 30% higher current capacity, a 20% improvement in power efficiency and better overclocking power stability. -
Solid cap
With their aluminum core design, Solid CAP's have been a staple in high-end design mainboard designs and provides lower equivalent series resistance (ESR) as well as its over-10-year lifespan.
