ASUS has announced a Radeon X1600 XT card equipped with a new cooling solution. The EAX1600XT Silent/TVD/256M uses copper heatpipes to transfer the heat from the GPU to a huge heatsink grill on the back of the board, where better airflow helps to dissipate it. The 16-pixel pipeline card is clocked at 590 MHz and has 256 MB of GDDR3 memory at 1.38 GHz.
