The GPU is the heart of the RIG and we recommend this latest GTX 960 for future proof performance. Many other 50K or $800 build dose not include this range of graphic card but we finally made this config in this budget.
The card has a styling that is immediately reminiscent of STRIX series card featuring the black shroud for the heat sink and fan assembly.Complimenting the black shroud you have two fans that feature a specialized dust proof fan design for superior reliability due to being double sealed. This design implementation helps at stopping dust, debris and dander from settling insider the hub assembly and causing the fan to have rotation issues or failing overtime. Additionally these fans are optimized for downward firing airflow as well as creating static pressure providing great airflow to the high fin count direct contact heatpipe heatsink assembly. While the card offers up considerably cooler temperatures that also aid in producing superior GPU BOOST clocks for improved performance it does not come at the expense of silence or quiet operation. The STRIX GTX 950 allows gamers to game in silence as a well as near silent operation. For idle and light loads the fan will operate in 0dB mode meaning they will not spin.
