We are happy to see that Arctic are now using a proper box to package their coolers in, rather than using plastic blister packaging. This provides the unit with more protection and has the added benefit of being recycleable. The front of the box features a large image of the cooler nestled within.
Flipping the box around reveals some more details regarding the features and specification of the cooler. There are also some graphs which illustrate potential thermal improvements with the cooler installed compared to a reference design.
Inside the box, the bundle consists exclusively of mounting accessories. These include a large heatsink for the back of the graphics card and a support bracket to help carry the added weight of the cooler.
is it possible yo mount only the cooler without the rear vrm and ram heatsink?
The Arctic Accelero III has the same config as this, minus the rear VRM and RAM heatsink. Go check it out, its what I am ordering!
Does this come with PWM fan control, so GPU itself can control the fans ?
I know gelid icy doesnt come with one…
You didn’t mention ANYTHING about what temperatures the VRM1 and 2 get to. This is really important, especially for R9 290 where we had many situations with vrms overheating and causing black screens etc.
hello i want to know which is better between the Msi Twin Frozr III and the AAX 4?
I think this wont fit in motherboards that have PCI-E slot right below the cpu socket (in 1st row) in combination with tower style cooler (for example between my 212 evo and my 290x I can barelly stick a finger between on msi h110m pro-d)
For the hardcore “MUST SLi BEAST POWER GPU” types out there, this exists.
Mod to your hearts content, and if it lights on fire.. well you’ll have the rear plate to grill on.
