1. Fully Covered Thermal Design
High coverage MOSFET and integrated molding Heatsinks to improve thermal efficiency with better airflow and heat
exchange.
2. LAIRD 5 W/mK Thermal Pad
By using 1.5mm thicker 5 W/mK thermal conductivity pads, it can transfer 2.7x more heat compared to traditional thermal
pads in the same time.
3. 2X M.2 Thermal Guards
Built-in M.2 heatsink prevent high-speed, large capacity PCIe 4.0 SSDs from throttling due to overheating.
ADVANCED THERMAL SOLUTION
B560 AORUS uses high performance Fully Covered thermal design with high coverage MOSFET Heatsinks and thick thermal pad,
providing ultimate MOSFET cooling performance for enthusiasts, overclockers and gamers.
1. 2X larger Surface
Increased surface area up to 2X larger compared to traditional heatsinks. It improves
heat dissipation from the MOSFETs.
2. Real One-piece Build
TMOS is a TRUE single piece heatsink. Its one-piece design and larger surface
drastically improve the cooling
performance against competitors’ multi-piece design.
3. Multi-cut Design
TMOS features several channels and inlets on the heatsink. This design allows for the
air flow to go through which leads
to a great improvement of the heat transfer performance.
AORUS M.2 Thermal Guard
GIGABYTE Ultra-Efficient M.2 Thermal Guard
With durability in mind, GIGABYTE provides a thermal solution for M.2 SSD devices. The M.2 Thermal
Guard prevents throttling
and bottlenecks from high speed M.2 SSDs as it helps to dissipate heat before it becomes an issue.
