3DMark 11 Advanced Edition bundled
MSI is the official mainboard and graphics card partner for 3DMark 11. MSI is bundling 3DMark 11 Advanced Edition with all R6900 series graphics cards, this way you can start benchmarking your card and compare your scores against friends right out of the box. 3DMark 11 is the best way to experience the DirectX 11 power of the R6950-2PM2D2GD5 and R6970-2PM2D2GD5.
Advanced vapor chamber fan control
The R6950-2PM2D2GD5 and R6970-2PM2D2GD5 are cooled by an advanced vapor chamber cooling for excellent thermal characteristics, ensuring heat is quickly absorbed from the GPU and exhausted out the rear of the card. The MSI R6900 series of graphics cards leverage the unique possibilities of MSI’s exclusive Afterburner software, allowing adjustments of the fan speed depending on the card’s load. MSI Afterburner can store up to five settings profiles, allowing the user to strike the best balance between performance and a silent working environment.
