Computex 2012: Sapphire Radeon HD 7770 with Passive Cooling
Author: Gabriel TorresDate: June 7, 2012 - 4:52 PM PST

More Info: http://www.sapphiretech.com

Sapphire showcased a Radeon HD 7770 with a passive cooling solution, meaning it generates no noise, as it doesn’t have cooling fans. The printed circuit board was designed by Sapphire, not using the stock layout. You can see that by the location of the two auxiliary power connectors, which were moved close to the rear bracket of the card. The connector configuration is different from the stock Radeon HD 7770 GHz Edition, with two DVI-I connectors, one HDMI connector, and one DisplayPort connector. The stock card has one DVI-I, one HDMI, and two mini DisplayPort connectors. This change was done to make it easier for users to connect three video monitors to the video card, since most people don’t have monitors with a DisplayPort connector.
