Arctic Cooling Accelero Xtreme GTX 280 graphics board cooler review @ Elite Bastards

[news 28]

 

Hi everyone,

 

While NVIDIA's reference cooler for their GeForce GTX 200 series of products is pretty respectable in terms of both noise and performance, there's always something better available for anyone willing to shell out for a third-party solution. Arctic Cooling's hefty Accelero Xtreme GTX 280 aims to be that "something better", but can it succeed in making the stock cooling solution look wimpy in terms of performance as well as size?

"The rear of the box goes into some details about the specification and expected performance of the cooler, while also making mention of the fact that it offers a pretty impressive six-year warranty to its owner.

 

The Accelero Xtreme GTX 280's specification in full lists everything from its dimensions through to those three 92mm fans which are controlled via the graphics board's own PWM mechanism to rotate at between 1,000 and 2,000 RPM, shifting 81 CFM of air in the process. The cooler itself weighs an impressive 680 grams, while also bundled with the cooler are thermal pads and heatsinks for all of the other major components of GeForce GTX 200 series cards which require cooling."
