** Get Ready for a 20% Cooler Experience with the GTX550 Ti Direct CU** ASUS is proud to introduce the new ASUS ENGTX550 Ti DC TOP to all our users. Using the unique ASUS Direct CU Cooler the airflow is doubled & the noise level is greatly reduced by using flattened copper heat pipes which directly contact the GPU core to speed up heat dissipation for a 20%* cooler performance compared to reference. Keeping the card temperatures low also results in quieter operations thanks to reduced fan speeds! The card also boasts Super Alloy Power which can create a 15% performance increase, 2.5 longer product life span & a 35°C cooler operation. In addition to this, the engine clock runs at a Pre Overclocked 975 M Hz, allowing users to enjoy high speed & an unprecedented gaming experience. Super Alloy Power is a special blend of elements formed using an ASUS exclusive formula, under extreme pressure & temperatures. The metals are highly-magnetic, heat-resistant & anti-corrosive used to reduce power loss, enhance durability & achieve cooler operation. Super Hybrid Engine is an intelligent power consumption optimizer that switches between high- & low-intensity power profiles in real-time. This in turn can provide up to 15% enhanced performance. With exclusive Voltage Tweak technology also being a key feature of this product, the ENGTX550 Ti DC/2DI/1GD5 covers users for every possible over-clocking & over-volting scenario. With the complete package offered by this card users can easily boost their performance by up to 50%! **ASUS Unique Selling Points**
