The Aero uses a blower styled cooler; so yes, it expels heat out the back of the system. Double & triple fan coolers expel heat into the system, letting your airflow setup take care of the rest. It's not hard to follow.
 
Uh, it's a little hard to follow, given that this is what the article actually says:

The differences are largely found in their cooling, with the Gaming Z being the only card in the series equipped with the company's TORX Fan 3.0, and the Aero featuring a dedicated cooling system that expels heat out the back and into the system. Unsurprisingly, this card also gets the highest out-of-the-box top clock speed.

And it also makes it seem like the higher clocks are referencing the Aero, rather than the Gaming Z.

The 2070 will perform on par with the 1080, so in the end very few ppl will upgrade. No game currently takes advantage of real-time ray tracing and the new DLSS antialiasing. By the time these features become mainstream, the 2100 series will have been released.
