Inno3D HerculeZ 3000 GTX 680 Announced w/ Daisy Chained Fans

By

Inno3D announced the HerculeZ 3000 GTX 680 gaming graphics card today! Inno3D has turned beefed up this NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680 powered card with a daisy chain architecture for the GPU cooler. This means you can customize the configuration of the fans. These aren’t just any fans though as they have 9 scythe blades on each that work actively with the Herculez Ball Bearing to keep the temperature cool under the hood. Inno3D did not mention pricing on the HerculeZ 3000 GTX 680 or clock speeds.

The HerculeZ is made up of a large heatsink with several large heatpipes protruding from the side. The reflective cores indicate a well lapped heatsink as the flat and smooth surface provides better surface area for heat dissipation. Looking at the underside you get a good look at the large heatsink fins which are quite dense and have been designed around the shroud as they fit it very nicely. Heatpipes are an efficient way of moving heat from one area to another and are usually used to connect the high density block of the cooler with the large surface area fins.
