It safeguards the system against hot air generated by connected cards and components, keeping temps down. With its sophisticated and agile integrated shunt design, the Thermal Armor improves cool air circulation, directing it towards every important part for a complete motherboard cool down. It effectively conducts hot air away and out of the case through special airflow channels, contributing to enhanced system stability and extending component lifespan. Thermal Radar 2 Thermal Radar 2 uses multiple sensors to control motherboard temperatures, automatically adjusting fan speeds for better system stability and power efficiency. It also provides customizable fan management that displays real-time motherboard, CPU and VGA zone cooling status, and promotes extended system longevity, power saving solution, and noise reduction.
