Break Out The Cooling
Some people constantly want the best, regardless of anything else and ASUS always tries to fill that niche for the PC user group. Many flock to their banner and prefer their products to others even though there are many other choices to choose from.
NVIDIA another tough player in the PC game industry also has high standards they try and maintain, their current flagship VGA (Single GPU) solution is the GeForce GTX 780 and it kills the 1920X1080p gaming zone. When you combine ASUS with NVIDIA you get a volatile cocktail, this time the flavor is the Direct CU II version of the GeForce GTX 780 from ASUS.
Based on a totally non-reference based design the Direct CU II version offers substantially better cooling, uses higher quality components and has custom fan tuning all of which make the card a highly covetable product. The way that NVIDIA achieves their overclocking now, the GPU Boost 2.0 solely relies on how well the card remains cool under full load, equating simply to: the better the cooling the better the boost.
The ASUS Direct CU II card come overclocked right out of the box and is designed to give the user the best experience in both gaming and overclocking. By now most users know the general specs, but if you want to see them you can check them out here on the ASUS website. Let us instead talk about what is different about the ASUS DirectCU II GTX 780.
