Hi guys,

I am just concerned about the cooling. There's no cooling included for the Titan Z right? Isn't this a big deal since the card has heating issues?

Some of my DS purchasing history:
I bought a laptop from DS many years ago and it's basically a brick now. I RMA'd it 2 times and it completely failed again 2 years ago (at which point, I gave up on it).

I bought 2 desktops from DS. They went through modifications/upgrades. This desktop is still in good shape. I don't use it anymore though.

Hi LDLD...  The Tiatn Z is triple slot wide to handle the cooling.  Most cards are double wide.   I haven't heard of any issues but haven't looked into it in quite some time.   The card should take care of itself with its fan and heatsinks.  .    The Bolt is vented so the card pulls air directly into it and the rear of the card exits the heat. 

Hope this helps.  Big%20Smile

As long as it isn't in a closed space, the Bolt II won't have any cooling issues. The GPU and CPU cooling both get direct air-flow for cooling.
