Arctic Cooling Announces Accelero Twin Turbo Pro VGA Cooler
The Swiss low noise cooling solution provider ARCTIC COOLING today announced the launch of the Accelero TWIN TURBO PRO. This dual-fan cooler is designed for fitting ATI and NVIDIA graphic cards, offering a truly cool and quiet solution for most enthusiasts.
This superior cooler is the upgraded version of the reputable Accelero TWIN TURBO. Instead of using 80mm fans, the Accelero TWIN TURBO PRO features two 92mm PWM fans for more advanced heat dissipation. The unconventional 4-heatpipe architecture together with 35 fins achieve up to 120 watts cooling capacity. Also with a layer of the ARCTIC MX-2 thermal compound on the base, the Accelero TWIN TURBO PRO guarantees instant and efficient cooling at all time.
Whisper quiet
Using bigger fans does not mean the noise level will increase. The new fan blades of the Accelero TWIN TURBO PRO are designed for improving the laminar airflow. This new architecture reduces noise level to minimal, achieving a nearly inaudible operation - only 0.3 sone at full speed, even quieter than the Accelero TWIN TURBO.
ATI and NVIDIA compatible
Its flexible mounting mechanism is designed with two sets of screw holes - 53mm and 43mm which are suitable for a wide range of ATI and nVIDIA graphic cards. From ATI Radeon HD 4890 to nVIDIA GeForce 6600, the Accelero TWIN TURBO PRO is the best choice for most overclockers worldwide to unleash their graphic card potential! A cooling solution trusted by industry leaders VGA card manufacturers such as Inno3D, PowerColor / Vertex3D, ELSA and Axle have opted for this 'turbo' to boost the graphic performance of their products - so why don't you get one for yourself?
The Accelero TWIN TURBO PRO won the "Top Product" award and mark 1.54 (very good) from a reputable German PC magazine PC Games Hardware. "ARCTIC COOLING's Accelero TWIN TURBO PRO offers excellent cooling performance at a very low noise level", the magazine concluded. The Accelero TWIN TURBO PRO offers a 6-year limited warranty. It will be available in December 2009. The MSRP is US$49.90 and 34.90 € (excl. VAT).

I guess I am getting one of these, now there needs to be reviews for this cooler.
It goes to show how cool ATI's new GPUs are, when they can be cooled by this, and don't require the beefier Accelero Xtreme coolers.
I have one of those and indeed the temperatures dropped with nice ~30 degrees celsius while the noise is - no noise :D
BUT (there is always one but) the power regulators doesn't have heatsink "love" so they go hot as they did with stock coolings. thus it gets 9 out of 10 :D

I don't see how great these fans are... They look quite weak to me @2000RPM
The best thing for AC fans is that they are quiet... For me that was huge reason to go with this cooler.
And still offers pretty decent cooling results.
My load temps are under 50 c on my 3850 and it idles are 32, I have the same heat sink but with the 80mm fans.
Not quite a piece of crap : ]
This is what I am thinking right now, this thing is only good for 120W of heat.Well it is indeed sub-par if you want to slap it on an OCed 5870. :shadedshu
That web page on AC uses the 4870 as an example, but the 5870 is closer to the 4890 in heat output and power consumption.
Edit: The new fans move more air due to more fan blades.
So I'd go for which ever is cheaper/quieter depending on what you want.
100mm vs 92 mm could make a small difference in temps.
But what do I care, I'll be using a HR-03 GT on all my cards from now on anyway.
