Good info about various AIB cooler performance.

If your undecided on which AIB cooled 290/X to choose, Linus sums it up pretty well.

Interesting that the XFX is better than the Asus at temps. Definitely shows that anything is better than reference :D
 
The dc2 still regarded as being a somewhat flawed design? iirc early reviews had it running hotter then expected.

Impressed by the msi tf4 & xfx dd, gigabyte seem to have lost their way a little. Not surprised by the lightning results, a monster card with a monster cooler.
