Introducing the Arctic Cooling Accelero Xtreme 8800. To squeeze out the extreme power from a GPU, an ultimate cooling solution was born. ARCTIC COOLING unveiled the Accelero Xtreme Series V the long awaited ultimate cooling weapon for all hardcore gamers. The Accelero Xtreme series is custom-made for ATI HD 2900XT/Pro and nVIDIA GeForce 8800Ultra/GTX/GTS graphic cards as stock cooler replacement.

Please check your card with the height restriction drawing (PDF) to assure compatibility.

"Must have" cooler for extreme graphic cards
The Accelero Xtreme features 5 heatpipes, 107 fins and 3 PWM fans. The radical optimized air flow design is targeting to cool effectively up to 240 Watt heat dissipation. The Accelero Xtreme can dramatically lower the temperature of the GPU at least 20ºC lower than the stock cooler. Together with the integrated memory and voltage regulator cooling, the Accelero Xtreme not o­nly enhances the overclocking potential but also extends the card's service life.

Radical new design achieving maximum air flow with lowest noise
The three PWM fans from Accelero Xtreme bring maximum air flow but operate extremely silence, thanks to the low noise impellor design and the patented fan holder which eliminates the humming noise. The unnoticeable operation of Accelero Xtreme brings you the unparallel non-disturbed gaming experience ever before.

I have a factory overclocked MSI Ultra and in my very hot computer room, the PC gets very little air flow and I don''t want to go back to water cooling. While I considered using H20 just for the VGA, I decided to try this first. It works like a champ. I did have to use my dremel to remove a small portion of the cooler''s plastic shroud as it was hitting the SATA ports on my motherboard not letting the card sit all the way down in it''s PCI slot. Aside from that, it lowered the temps dramatically and no more artifacts! Even was able to raise the core up to 705mhz (up from 660mhz) It''s also MUCH quieter than the stock cooler even when using RivaTuner to have them run at 100% speed all the time.

ok fist and four most the only i mean only reason i gave this a 3 is because of the fact is that this thing is long very long its about 2 or 3 inches longer that the card so if u have a mid tower b warned u will have lil or no room i have about i finger with from hitting the hard drive slots no big deal its just u if u have a lot of cable u have to configure and put them in weird places other than that i went from 68 to 46 idle and full load 80 to 52 freaking awesome !

Does what it is supposed to and better than the rest. HOWEVER, the NVIO thermal pad is thinner than it should be. The chip sits higher than the memory so the thermal pad included is thinner, but as it turns out it is more so than it needs. I am currently trying to find a replacement just to be safe.

Dropped my idle temps by 15 degrees. My load temperature only rises by about 5-10 degrees from my new idle temp. To the gentleman above, are you sure you have a G80 chipset? This heatsink wont fit any of the newer Nvidia cards.

The heatsink & provided thermal pad are too thin to make any contact with the NVIO chip near the front of the card! I don''t know if Nvidia used different NVIO chips on different revision cards or if it''s a packing mistake on AC''s part. If you buy one of these check the chip contact or you could fry your card.
