Nice, i need one of these since day one this card was released and with the current temperatures we are getting here, i would love a nice quiet cooler that actually cools and lets me still be able to hear my games.

OcUK stock it please with cherries on top

don't own this card, but review is great man!

If overclockers dont sell this, is it within the forum rules to ask where I might purchase one?

No, because there's a more than reasonable chance that any store that is linked will sell other products that OCuk DO sell and so that is still a conflict. For example, I could be talking about trousers and link to a certain well known supermarket that has a fantastic deal on them but it would still be against the rules. Why? That supermarket would also sell PCs, consoles, monitors, TVs etc etc all of which OCuk sell as well.

If you are ever unsure about linking to another store then just don't do it unless you don't mind being suspended

thats some diff in cooling, any chance 1 of these would fit a 4890 ?

Nope, but you can look for Arctic Cooling's "Accelero Twin Turbo" instead...

...which OCuk do not sell either

So who do we talk need to talk to get this in stock here. Seems like a few of us want this.

Thanks for the review 'tibbsey' was keen to see how they performed. I have the Powercolor card and a X-fi card underneath it so gives me a god idea of the clearance. Very tempted to get one of these when they are available.

Cheers

What about the MemIO and DispIO temps, are they much better? They are the temps I'm most concerned about as they often hit 105°C under load.

dude...excellent review and some awesome pics...I was wanting this myself when I first heard about but cos OcUK didn't and still don't stock it...so I have now decided to go liquid cooling on it...which I am going to do this weekend so expect a thread (a live one that is) to be seen on the forums soon.

And I love the temps as well

Just been playing Oblivion for a few hours (roughly 70% load on both cores) and the VDDC Temps in GPU-Z (assuming these are the MemIO and DispIO temps...) haven't hit more than 75C.

If you're running the latest version (0.34 if I recall correctly) then it will actually list them with MemIO, DispIO etc.

Superb review and look like an excellent product..time to source one from US...the other half is American - love it!!

 

[chaosophy]

Thanks for the great pics and info. Been on the lookout for one of these myself and sounds like some good tips you've posted re: the install that'll hopefully save me some time if and when I get one. Thanks.

Arctic 4870x2 cooler......an imaginary thing of myth or fable

 

[CaptainRAVE]

Is this thing STILL not on sale here yet?

A thing of legend, yes.

A myth, no.



It's only 23C in my bedroom today, so I'm idling at 38/41C.
Happy days.
