Heat Dissipation
Efficient heat redistribution enables faster dissipation, minimizing thermal throttling. The TUF Gaming A17’s tailored system of four heatpipes and three heatsinks absorbs warmth from the CPU and GPU transfers it away. An extended heat spreader on the CPU further helps keep the processor at optimum temperatures for reliable performance, even under serious stress.
Self-Cleaning Cooling 2.0
Two anti-dust tunnels located at the edges of the fans catch incoming dust and dirt particles and channel them back out of the chassis. An updated design shortens the tunnels to create more space for airflow, increasing fan performance up to 15% over the previous generation. These measures improve overall system stability by preventing build-up that can compromise the performance of internal cooling components. Self-cleaning Cooling 2.0 ensures long-term system reliability that truly lives up to the TUF name.

*Self-Cleaning Cooling version and heatpipe number varies by SKU. 
83-Blade lcp Fans
Maximize your airflow with two 83-Blade fans. Carefully shaped intake shrouds use curved edges and raised guides to help the fans draw in more air. Once the air’s inside, it’s blasted toward the heatsinks by 83 0.25mm blades that are 55% thinner than conventional designs, yet strong enough to spin at high RPMs. These powerful fans amplify airflow up to 10% to keep your system cool.

With 0dB Technology, the fans switch off completely when CPU and GPU temperatures are below 60°C in the Silent operating mode. This makes cooling truly silent under light workloads. If CPU or GPU temperatures increase, the fans automatically switch on again.
Scenario Profiles
Scenario Profiles automatically change operating modes to optimize performance and acoustics for different games and applications. Turbo mode uses the highest fan speed and clocks to sustain maximum speed, Performance mode adjusts the clocks and cooling to lower noise levels for gaming, and Silent mode runs even quieter for lighter work and entertainment. You can customize Scenario Profiles to seamlessly switch modes based on your preferences, or use a keyboard shortcut to change modes manually.
