Accelero S1 passively cools high-end cards

IF YOU like quiet high-end cooling systems, Arctic has something for you.

These guys are long time in the industry and have been developing coolers for HIS and PowerColor cards. Now the firm has its attentions to high-end cards.

The Accelero S1 sports four heat pipes and there will be a cheaper model with two heat pipes as well. It works with all cards up to Geforce 7950GT and Radeon X1950 XTX. The big cooler is taller than the average graphic card but it will do the job quietly.

This product will be available in a few weeks and you'll see it on some retail graphic cards as well.

In our picture, the cooler sits on two Radeon X1950XTX and Crossfire cards in a system, all passively cooled. Notice the size of the cooler, but at least its quiet.
