Thing is with the fans it will be around £40, my question is is that worth it over the Arctic Cooling Accelero Twin Turbo with costs £23?

That's what i'm having trouble thinking about too.

I really want to replace my 4870 stock cooler but don't know which route to go. I'm not sure I read correctly (it could have been the accelero s1 rev 2?) but people are saying the Twin Turbo cannot cool the memory correctly and temps are reaching 120! I'm not sure if the Trad has this problem though?

i did see a massive review for about 14 different coolers

the Trad2 tromped all over them

the Accelero S1 beat the Twin Turbo in most cases too, suprisingly (it's a lot taller)

edit..

Ahh thanks for that, looks like the TRAD 2 is the cooler to get. Thanks

can't believe everyone isn't going mad about them on here tbh.. guess it's got a dumb name for starters :p
 
Yeah well I've just had my attention pricked there on these cooler, looks superb :)

The 9800GTX cooler is pretty good as is but its all a bit noisy when it gets a bit on the hot side. I've got a Xilence red wing 120mm sitting in reserve at the moment anyways from my old Thermalright cooler so I'm ready for it :)

Nice, I've been looking at fans for this cooler.
The Noctua NF-B9 seems to be the best 92mm cooler but its quite pricey (and i'll need to of them), and i dont know if they will fit (screw holes seem different?). I think i will go with 2x redwings 92mm.

Redwings are certainly very efficient and at the price they are I think they are a steal. What you will find is they shift a lot of air and are completely silent :)
