Thermal Grizzly WireView Pro II

The WireView Pro II was specially developed for the demanding use of modern high-end graphics cards with 12V-2x6 connection and represents the most advanced version of the WireView Pro. The current is not only measured as a total value, but also per individual pin and wire of the 12V-2x6 connector. This means that potential contact problems between the cable and the graphics card can be recognised immediately. The WireView Pro II was specially developed for precise monitoring of the 12V-2x6 connection in order to detect load distribution problems at an early stage and prevent possible damage to the graphics card and the 12V-2x6 connection.

All safety-relevant parameters such as currents (A), voltages (V), temperatures (°C) and power consumption (W) are continuously measured. Thermal Grizzly has defined threshold values that should not be exceeded during regular operation, as this would increase the risk of thermal damage to the connector. If a threshold value is exceeded, a visual warning appears on the display and an acoustic alarm is triggered. Optionally, an automatic switch-off of the system can be triggered via the supplied splitter cable. The preset threshold values can be adjusted via the configuration menu.

Additional heat is generated when operating high-performance GPUs due to unavoidable contact resistances on plug connections, which lead to power losses. To ensure controlled heat dissipation, a semi-passive fan has been integrated, which operates silently when idle and activates automatically when power consumption and temperature increase. The CNC-milled aluminium housing has ventilation openings and serves as an active heat sink. Optimised openings in the rear circuit board direct the airflow around all heat-relevant components, including the graphics card's power connection.
