Custom Gigabyte Radeon RX 480 Spotted has WindForce 2X cooler
Exclusive pictures of Gigabyte's custom Radeon RX 480 G1 Gaming have surfaced, it has a WindForce 2X cooler. The design is more compact and tighter compared to for example, the 1070 GTX G1 Gaming, but Gigabyte nothing left out in terms of features.
That means two semi-passive fans, on the side with an LED indicator to indicate what is the status of these fans. Adjustable RGB lighting is suppled as well. On the other side of the card is you'll spot a backplate.
Price and availability of the Radeon RX 480 G1 Gaming is TBA.

I don't like back plates, they are more often than not in the way when for instance removing the graphic card. Also, a waste of resources... increase the surface area of the coolers instead.

The back plate looks really nice.
