Wonder how well it will do, anyone know of any benchmarks/reviews?

I found that review, which seems to say its a fantastic cooler. I'm extremely tempted by it, even with no fans it outperforms the stock cooler on a 9800GT, which isn't exactly a new card, but still. Especially with the 6950 support as well, making it (I think) the only GPU cooler OcUK sell that's compatible with it.

This is like over a year old, almost two maybe, theres plenty of reviews. Its up their with the shaman thermalright, if I'm remembering the name, but has a better fan mounting method in that, its not on the heatsink so the weight isn't added to the card so less warping of cards and silly weight on the gpu.

It did fantastically well on my 5850 at 1050Mhz with 1.3v, kept it sub 50C load, and silent in games. It seems to be coping less well with my 6950 unlocked and overclocked. It seems as soon as I go over 1.15v or so the temps shoot up, still not high and quite a lot lower(and much quieter than the stock cooler. I've also switched fans though and think they don't work as well.

You're best off with 2x92mm fans due to the shape of the sink, I had 2 but they weren't quiet ones, I got two quiet 120mm fans but should have bought 2 quieter 92mm fans(mine were very quiet but only at 5v and very little airflow, cheap £2 ones, they buzzed at higher voltages aswell). Problem is the dead zone on a 120mm fan is bigger and due to being wider than the sink basically a lot of airflow is wasted.

So 2 decent 92mm fans for best performance.

It looks like a pc slot killer, forget crossfire / sli / or anything really takes up almost every single slot on your pc LMFAO.

Thanks for the post, thats really helpful as I'm considering one to replace the stock cooler on my unlocked 6950 since that gets rather toasty, plus with the option to overclock as well if I can cool it well.

How many slots does it take up? One for the card, one for the heatsink, and is the fan bracket one or two slots tall, I couldn't tell from the picture of it. And the fan tim is very helpful, noise wouldn't be so much of an issue for me as my case is basically made of fans, but I wouldn't want them to be wasted either. Cheers

You obviously never had a HR-03+ stuck on the side of a 8800GTX then.. THAT was massive... this is tiny

dont tempt me!!

2 slots for the cooler and 2 for a fan mounted next to the card. It's possible to fit the fans horizontally though but I'm not sure how effective they are in a dual card configuration with the airflow in the wrong direction, as it were.

Wonder when Alpenfoehn Peter is coming out, it's a similar design but with a higher thermal deisgn.

anarchy, why was my post saying that this thing does not cool the gtx580 properly deleted :s

I managed two of them in SLI on gtx470's with two 140mm fans. The sound card sat above them.
