Evening

I've got a quick question. Is there a difference between Accelero XTREME Plus and Accelero XTREME Plus II fan and sink? Those VRM bits does not matter, what i wanna know if they are identical. It works out cheaper for me if i get Accelero XTREME Plus + VR004 sinks

Anyone has any idea about this?

The PlusII has a higher TDP rating 300 vs 250watts.

It also supports a few extra cards.

Sorry for not getting back to you earlier, missed your reply.

Yes, get the PlusII, more cooling capacity is better.

Also a look at the TDP of the GTX580 puts it close to the 250W maximum of the Accelero XTREME Plus at 244w, which will be higher still if its a overclocked version.
