Here we are going to look at the types of cooling systems for ZOTAC GAMING GeForce RTX 3060 Ti GDDR6X Twin Edge White Edition and Sapphire Pulse Radeon RX 590 8G G5 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.
