7970/50 Arctic Accelero Users

Hi guys,

Signed up on the forums after finding this thread, installed my xtreme a week back.
I've used some sekisui tape, running Kombustor at high settings for 10 minutes to max the temps I got 58c on the core and 89c and 88c on the vrms, Komustor is very stressful, won't see these kinda temps with games. With crysis 3 for 20 minutes, got a core temp of 48c and max vrm temps of 63c.

I've noticed in afterburner that fan speed at lets say 50% is showing a constant zig zag in the RPM graph, any of you getting that?

Also looked at getting the hybrid but it seems a bit overpriced, probably because there aren't too many closed loop gpu coolers on the market.
Friend of mine is gonna customize himself one from a kuhler, there are
people selling brackets on overclock.net to fit cpu coolers onto gpu and stick a fan etc...

Make sure its the right one, there are two. Only one supports the 7970 and that is manufacturer code - DCACO-V75A001-GB

Comes from Hong Kong and costs 222 dollars from arctic and it also says not available when you get to the checkout. :(

I've sent them an email will see what they say. This is like my infamous G1 search quest all over again.

By the looks of it matt they give you the same heat sink kit. So it probably won't help vrm cooling

I think it will, but by how much is the question. From reviews ive seen it was on par with the 7970 reference vrm cooling which was pretty good actually. I think its because there's no heatsink fins in the way and the fan sits right on top of the vrms this time.
