Here we are going to look at the types of cooling systems for PowerColor Red Dragon Radeon RX 570 4GB GDDR5 and GIGABYTE GeForce GTX 1070 G1 Gaming 8G 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.
