With modern graphics cards containing more transistors than the fastest
CPUs... Yeah, I know that I have gotten a bit bored with EVERY website
telling us the same thing over and over and over again, after each new
cooler comes out for a graphics card. WE GET THE POINT! Ahem, back to my
semi-sanity. So to make things sweet and simple, we all know that
high-end graphics cards need the core and memory cooled- actively.
With trends continually evolving in computer enthusiast overclocking and
cooling, things change rapidly. At one point in time not too long ago,
noise wasn’t a big issue as long as the overclock was as high as
possible, and the system was stable. Now, of course, we view things
differently. We want silence while still being able to achieve the same results. The point of my babbling? Modern graphics cards are hot and
fast. Cool them silently!
With
silence being the issue, I present to you Arctic Cooling's NV5 Silencer
cooler. Arctic Cooling over the years has given us many great quiet
cooling products for our video cards, both ATi and nVidia alike.
Product
Description:
Video Card Cooler
designed for both power users and low noise environments. Warm air is
exhausted directly outside the case! The heatsink has a solid copper
base with aluminum thin fin design. It is cooled by a wheel-style fan
that draws cool air from the case and blows it through the heatsink
fins. The heated air form the heatsink is then exhausted directly
outside the case, thus helping to reduce case temperatures!
