MSI Shows Transparent TwinFrozr Cooling Solution

A nice spot from the colleagues at TPU, they noticed that MSI is teasing a transparent version of their TwinFrozr Cooling Solution. The cooler is to be used on their Radeon R9 290 series graphics cards and should provide these puppies the cooling they actually need. If you base an idea of the reference PCB then it is going to be a fairly a long and tall TwinFrozr IV design - all see-through acrylic shroud covering the aluminum fin-stack heatsink.

TwinFrozr IV is MSI's workhorse VGA cooler for its Gaming, Lightning, and HAWK series of factory-overclocked graphics cards.

Wow, this looks a little cheap & boring to me from this pic! I reckon the 290X deserves a little more love!

I have one of those kinda effect coolers on an old 6800 Ultra. Forget the name of the cooler but it looks pretty good.

I wonder how long it takes until there are versions with LED lighting.

well i dont care for the see through look(when it comes to fans on hardware that is) but geez the fans are so thin at the base of the blades on tfII'S that they break to easy if you get something caught in them.
really in tri sli on a p67 mb two just busted right up on me so i had to separate them then i have to get new cooling. so get some more plastic on the blades msi and less on the cooler shroud.
Little rant but over all I love the coolers.

I love the TF4 cooler it's almost inaudible on my 780 but the jury is out on the clear acrylic.
