GOALS OF iCX3
Maximize the thermal contact surface area on graphics card components
Airflow pockets allow air to move more freely through the heatsink to remove more heat.
Patented copper base is 25% larger to cover both GPU and RAM area to improve thermal transfer and GPU/RAM cooling.
New 180° heatpipe design with selectively positioned heatpipes increases fin contact area by 65% and optimal heat dissipation.
Triple fans are installed on all air-cooled EVGA GeForce RTX 30 Series graphics cards to optimize airflow, increase cooling performance, and reduce fan noise.
EVGA graphics card features asynchronous fan mode, and a special upraised "E" pattern that further reduces turbulent noise.
EVGA’s iCX3 fans turn off below 55°C, generating 0dB of noise.
FTW3 center fans are offset by 10mm to increase the direct airflow area by 16%.
Smart cut-outs in the PCB and backplate improve airflow and reduce exhaust recovery
iCX3 TECHNOLOGY
iCX3 Technology combines sensors and micro control procesors with improved iCX3 Cooling performance to make EVGA iCX3 the smartest and most-efficient cooling package available today.
EVGA iCX3 Technology leverages patented sensors and micro control processors with asynchronous fans to interactively-cool your graphics card. With at least 9 additional thermal sensors on the graphics card, EVGA iCX3 Technology can track emerging hotspots and direct iCX3 Cooling to beat the heat. Asynchronous fans cool only the areas that need cooling, which keeps your card quieter at all times. Through EVGA Precision X1, you can also monitor every iCX3 sensor and control each fan. With EVGA iCX3 Technology, you can let your graphics card worry about its own temperatures for a change and truly enjoy Peace of Mind Gaming.
EVGA iCX3 uses a patented 9 sensor design controlled by micro control processors to determine fan speed for the GPU and VRAM/PWM areas.
EVGA GeForce RTX 30 Series iCX3 graphics cards have 9 additional thermal sensors and multiple MCUs. All sensors can be displayed in EVGA Precision X1 and OSD.
Blue = Cool Green = Warm Red = Hot
iCX3 Technology uses asynchronous fans to cool graphics card components only as needed. These fans spin at different rates, ensuring that the correct areas of the card are cooled and reducing noise in the process.
