**GTX680-DC2T-2GD5: ASUS GTX 680 Direct CU II: coolest & quietest 28nm card**
- Cranked 143 M Hz over reference for an ultimate boost clock of 1201 M Hz
- All new Direct CU thermal design utilizes five all-copper heatpipes & 20% bigger dissipation area, achieving 20% cooler & 14d B quieter performance than reference
- Acclaimed DIGI+ VRM with 10-phase Super Alloy Power technology delivers precise digital power & enhanced overclocking headroom.
- VGA Hotwire means that you can plug & solder wires on the cards voltage regulators & accurately read & control Vcore, Vmem, & PLL voltages on a hardware level
- GPU Tweak utility helps you modify & tune boost clock, power target, & fan performance via an intuitive interface Thick copper heatpipes are accurately positioned in direct contact with the GPU surface so heat is transported & dissipated efficiently to the heatsink
- achieving a 20% cooler performance than reference. Since heat is carried away faster, fans can spin at a lower speed thus resulting in quieter performance than reference. Super alloy components are reinforced with special alloy formula & manufactured under high temperature & pressure to deliver stable & noise-free operation. Proprietary VGA hotwire means that you can plug & solder wires on the cards voltage regulators & accurately read & control Vcore, Vmem, & PLL voltages from ASS ROG MBs on a hardware level. Acclaimed DIGI+ VRM with 10-phase Super Alloy Power technology delivers precise digital power & enhances durability for stable overlocking. Dynamic visual effects like blazing explosions, reactive debris, realistic water, & lifelike characters. ** Deploy the Cool. Reign in Silence: ASUS Exclusive Innovation**
