There is already a few threads on Intel's new GPUs, but this Acer Predator branded Arc 770 has an interesting cooler that I felt deserved its own thread. It appears to mix a blower and non-blower type of fan. I don't think I've ever seen a cooler design incorporate both types of fans. I am wondering what people think of this? A picture isn't much to go off of, but I am wondering how efficient this type of design would be.

Tom's Hardware article with some more detail.

If anything, it does have a more unique look than what we typically see these days.
 
I don't love the LED lit name. But otherwise that card does look pretty good.
 
I dig it. Really curious how well it cools the card.
I am going to suspect not so good.... but I'm no expert.
The issues I see.
Whatever heat it does pull off the VRM/RAM is going to get pushed right where the vent is intaking for the GPU.
Second will the smaller blower bits not end up being quite loud.

Looks great... be interesting to see if anyone gets any to review. Its different at least.
