As stated the card remains passive thanks to its cooling solution, up-to a GPU temperature of 60 Degrees C the fans does not even spin. Once they do they'll try and vent some warm air out of the rear plate. However as you can see already, heat travels upwards and the radiator surface area is not contained, so most warm air will be dumped inside the chassis. As we always state, chassis ventilation is a must.

 
The cooler is impressive in both performance but also size, that's 28 cm / 11 inches of graphics card right there. Please always do make sure the card physically fits inside your chassis. For those that wonder, the board is equipped with Micron GDDR5 memory ICs. A 10 phase power supply is responsible for supplying the GP1040 GPU with power. The card (with cooler) weights 1,100g.

 
Only the top side MSI logo is LED system controlled and capable of displaying several colors and effects. 
  

And yes, once installed I do think that is a nice looking product with the chrome/metal accents and matte black. A card like that will suit any style PC really.
