Great, while the fan worked12/1/2011 6:38:04 PM
Pros: Worked very well on quietly cooling an Radeon 5570. The stock fan was annoyingly high pitched and loud.
Cons: The fan died after about 6 months. Because it was so quiet, didn't even realize it had stopped working until the user complained about really long boot times and wierd system behavior.
Overall Review: The heatsink and fan design are excellent for a midrange video chip. A bit bulky, but not that bad. Fan longevity is the problem. I used it with the included molex adapter so it wasn't the power header on the video card.
Replaced the included fan with an 80mm x 25mm case fan I had lying around...just jammed it in there between the taller fins of the heatsink. Works just as well as the included fan if not better.
Pros: Fits the XFX 577X-ZNLC if you move the heatsink screws from B slot to A slot and leave off the adhesive washers. On other's recommendations I twisted the screws just up to the point of significant resistance.
Quiet fan with no whine.
15 C degree temperature drop at load compared to stock heatsink.
Ramsinks AND vrm sinks.
Includes 3pin to molex adapter so you can ignore proprietary fan headers on the card.
Cons: Blocks TWO pci slots not including the vga card itself. The heatsink takes up one slot and the fan is about as big. If I had a pci card under it there would probably be less than 5mm clearance. Don't think it would do well in crossfire with so little room for the fan to get air.
(nitpick) Preapplied thermal compound with no more included. Better have your own ready if you want to test-fit it multiple times.
(nitpick) Not that much temperature difference at idle compared to stock heatsink.
(nitpick) Not feeling a lot of CFM from the fan at full, but temp is still fine at load so whatever.
Overall Review: Love the quiet. At 12v the fan is comparable to yate-loons at 12v, and scales down relatively well.
Unlike others I didn't have much problem assembling it; I put the heatsink fan facing down and lined it up holding the gfx card upside down looking through the screw holes.
Overall it does everything I need it to do, with small cons being balanced out by its low price.
Overall Review: As with other reviewers, my two main points are its size and its cooling capabilitiy. I put this onto a Radeon 9800 GT card and my temps dropped a full 20 degrees C at idle and up to 35 degrees C in game. The fan is quiet. I don't hear it running. If it weren't for the temp readout, I wouldn't know it was running at all. The heatsink is quite thick. I've lost the ability to utilize the unused PCI slots in my tower, but I'm okay with that. The trickiest part of the installation for me was putting on the double-sided sticky tape to hold the stand-offs in place on the mounting plate. Tweezers would have been helpful had I thought of that before getting the tiny rings stuck to my fingers. Make sure you have thermal compound on hand. It took me a couple of tries before I successfully aligned and attached the cooler to the card and so the preloaded compound got mucked up. Overall, I am very pleased so far.
Pros: It is extremely quiet, unlike the stock fan my Radeon 4760 came with. The stock fan was keeping the GPU at 80 degrees Celsius, and the ARCTIC COOLING Accelero L2 Pro keeps it at 47 degrees Celsius. It was extremely easy to install. Just make sure you measure the holes on your card to ensure the default will fit. You may have to change the brackets. Mine fit perfectly.
Cons: The only con is the size of the heat sync/fan. I did have to remove my RJ 25 card to fit it, but I don't even use it. Other than that, it is an awesome upgrage.

on my HD 57703/1/2012 3:47:01 PM
Pros: it works, good price
Cons: runs hotter then the factory heatsink that was on my MSI HD 5770 idols at 54C full load is around 76-78c which is higher then id like but still functional. this heatsinks glaring flaw is size and weight. i have a bottom mounted CPU and an MSI 890FXA-GD65 - motherboard and there is enough room for it tho it takes up 3 slots the weight of the heatsink is pulling the rear of the card down.
Overall Review: It is a really cheap solution to my stock fan going out, i wont lose any sleep over it and ill use this fan until it dies or i get a new card it is bulky and may not be for everyone, just remember you get what you pay for and this is less then 25$.

decent fan replacement2/24/2012 6:37:37 AM
Pros: very quiet and easy to attach.
Cons: Only slightly better then stock cooler. I still think it's a good replacement for a damaged cooler but temps only indicate a minor improvement in cooling performance.
Overall Review: It does take up 2 slots so make sure you have enough space under the card.

Excellent VGA Cooler2/1/2012 6:52:57 PM
Pros: Quiet, efficient, easy to install, looks good.
Cons: None.
Overall Review: Works great on a 9800GT Akimbo. Temps in the 30's at idle and 50's under stress (Celsius). Can't hear it over my Cooler Master Geminii S CPU Cooler which is already whisper quiet.
Buy this cooler for any mid-level ATI or Nvidia card to get quieter and better cooling. Buy the Twin Turbo version for high end cards.
Pros: i have a ati 4650 off brand asus card. I used from my old build for my new build and the fan started to go out and make lots of noise and just plain not work making my gpu run really hot up to 90C way to hot...
So I ordered this fan/heat sink combo because it says it fits on the ati 4650's and well it does but there was no room left to plug the card back into the slot...
Cons: bigger then i expected.
I had to machine some of the heat-sink off to get it to fit back in my pci x16 slot.
Fan did not fit back on to the heat sink after i machined it so i had to jury rig the fan on with a combination of super glue and zip ties.
Overall Review: possibly my own fault i did not see if it had the dimensions before i purchased, i was having a hard time finding a replacement fan/heat-sink combo for my gpu so i was happy to find something that fit.
It works for now at least and i over clocked my 4650 card a lot all the way up to 750mhz gpu and 600mhz ddr2 ram (ran stock at 400mhz gpu and 300mhz ddr2, Still runs at 30C-35C so great fan just not what i expected.
Pros: Worked very well on quietly cooling an Radeon 5570. The stock fan was annoyingly high pitched and loud.
Cons: The fan died after about 6 months. Because it was so quiet, didn't even realize it had stopped working until the user complained about really long boot times and wierd system behavior.
