The cooling solution implemented with this ASUS GTX 560 is a more  compact version than seen in the previously reviewed ASUS GeForce GTX  580 DirectCU II. It features an aluminium base and triple heatpipe  design to transfer the heat directly from the GPU with maximum  efficiency, while the two 7.5cm PWM controlled fans push cool air over  the main aluminium heatsink and connecting triple heatpipe array.
