In addition to the reference designed GTX 780 graphics card, Gigabyte is one of the rare partners that has decided to come up with a custom-cooled factory-overclocked GTX 780 as well. Since the reference blower-style GTX Titan cooler does a great job with the GTX 780 not many partners decided to go for custom-cooled versions, but Windforce 3X is certainly up for the job and should keep the GTX 780 well cooled.

Paired up with Gigabyte's Windforce 3X cooler, the GV-N780OC-3GD also features a decent factory-overclock that takes the card up to 945MHz base and 1006MHz Boost GPU clocks. It still feature 3GB of GDDR5 memory clocked at reference 6GHz and paired up with a 384-bit memory interface.

In case you missed it on earlier Gigabyte graphics cards, the Windforce 3X features three inclined fans as well as two 8mm and four 6mm heatpipes paired up with a large area heatsink. The Windforce 3X should have no problems with GTX 780 GPU and the rest of the board and should ensure maximum cooling performance at minimum noise levels.

The new GV-N780OC-3GD should already be appearing in retail/e-tail alongside the reference Gigabyte GTX 780 graphics card.
