HIS IceQ 3 Cooling Technology
HIS IceQ is endorsed as the most efficient cooling technology among the current mainstream graphic cards' series. HIS IceQ can actively draw the air inside your PC case to cool down the card, and blows amounts of hot air out of your case, dramatically decreasing the GPU temperature together with your PC components.

Like others have said, this card is great for its price. I bought two of these cards for a Crossfire setup and they shipped very quickly. I love how all the other stuff like the adapters and screwdrivers came with them.
