XFX Radeon RX 480 Double Dissipation Pictured
Here are some of the first detailed pictures of XFX Radeon RX 480 Double Dissipation graphics card. The card combines a custom-design PCB with a meaty custom cooling solution by the company, to support factory-overclocked speeds and overclocking headroom further still. The cooling solution, from which the card derives its name, features two aluminium fin-stacks, to which heat drawn from a copper base is conveyed by four 6 mm-thick copper heat pipes, and ventilated by a pair of 90 mm spinners.
These fans can be detached from the cooler without needing any tools, and without even having to detach the cooler shroud. A back-plate finishes off the cooling solution. The PCB draws power from a single 8-pin PCIe power connector, and uses a 6-phase VRM with high-end International Rectifier DirectFETs to condition it for the GPU. The card features factory-overclocked speeds in excess of 1300 MHz. The card features 8 GB of memory. Display outputs include a DVI connector, besides three DisplayPort 1.4 and one HDMI 2.0b. XFX could launch the card later this week.

ps. why dont all manufacturers use the fan mounting design? its so good for maintaining the card in a proper working order.
Instead of shipping them the entire card for repair, they simply send you the fan.
How ever they might of dropped the lifetime warranty for those to now, i guess we will have to wait until their site gets updated to be 100% if they going keep that trend with the DD.That's nice but i do have too add that the XFX guy at these forums has sent me a few fans for mine complete with coolers to boot even a updated cooler (390).

Minor texture streaming issues in a relatively new game can be addressed with a driver patch, which I imagine Nvidia will do.
If i remember they are put together in china then shipped to were ever, so going on a limb here i think they received a batch and took the cooler off put a cover over the pads and cleaned the paste of just so we can have a look at the card in more detail. And if the cooler is put back on right it's a none issue.
