Cooler & Fans
Here we are going to look at the types of cooling systems for GIGABYTE AORUS GeForce RTX 3080 Xtreme Waterforce 10G (rev. 2.0) LHR and PNY GeForce RTX 3080 XLR8 Gaming Uprising Epic-X RGB Triple Fan Edition as well as their sizes and performance. As a rule, fans with larger diameters have an advantage because they can move the same volumes of air while rotating more slowly than smaller fans. It should be noted that liquid cooling systems in addition to fans and aluminum radiators need some kind of pump, which can also be noisy.
