Review Graphics Card, the PowerColor Radeon HD 6850 SCS 3

Passively cooled graphics cards (all and heatpipes, fanless heatsink) is not new, but products that use passive thermal solution is usually found in the entry-level segment and has a maximum thermal design power that is below 75 watts. The reason is simply because it is harder to maintain low tempratures enough graphics card on the higher end, while the source does not have at least some cooling off. PowerColor changed this, however, with their latest passively cooled video cards, the Radeon HD 6850 SCS 3.

PowerColor HD 6850 SCS 3 (silent cooling solution) is a card that stands out from other 6850 HD cards are distinguished by including the thermal solution is cooled passively utilizes five 6 mm heatpipes and array 62-fin heat sink thermal performance for maximum is still really silent. Moreover, the PowerColor HD 6850 SCS 3 big boards using independent memory cooling and heatsinks on board all the essential components of sufficiently cooled.Thermal solutions are powerful, and this is potentially the most powerful graphics card on the market that leverages passive solutions. However, the question is will the heatsink SCS 3 enough to maintain low temperatures across the Board, or heat will eventually win?

HD 6850 SCS 3 is the design that we first introduced back in January this year, during our CES coverage. This means that the PowerColor have worked carefully to heatsink design for SCS 3 over six months, so we are very interested to see what the end result.
