Arctic Intros Accelero Mono Plus VGA Cooler
Arctic released a new VGA cooler, the Accelero Mono PLUS. This cooler can handle thermal loads of up to 200W, and maintains a compact fin-stack design, unlike the monolitic heatsink design of the Accelero L2 series. Measuring 136 (L) x 138 (W) x 51 (H) mm, its main heatsink weighs 348 g. From an exposed-copper base (with pre-applied adhesive thermal compound) arise five 6 mm thick copper heat pipes, that fan out to pass through an aluminum fin stack. This stack is ventilated by a 120 mm PWM-controlled fan that can spin at speeds between 400 and 1500 RPM. It can be as quiet as 0.4 Sone.The package includes smaller heatsinks for memory chips and VRM, and a sachet of G-1 thermal adhesive compound. The package also includes a resistor cable that connects the cooler to a 4-pin Molex connector, and gives out two voltage levels: 12V and 7V, running the fan at its maximum and minimum speeds. The cooler is compatible with a wide range of graphics cards from NVIDIA and AMD, including AMD Radeon HD 6970/6950, and NVIDIA GTX 560 Ti. Sadly, GF110/GF100-based single-GPU graphics cards such as GTX 470, GTX 465, GTX 480, GTX 570, GTX 580, are not supported. The Accelero Mono PLUS is priced at US $59.99.

So look at how they perform if your curious and there's no reviews yet.
I've had a poorly designed version of one of these 120mm heatsinks and even that rubbish one done a pretty nice job on my 5770, a well designed one ( i.e heatpipes in sensible places)
Should be able to outperform all but the best stock heatsinks.
Im curious to see if this cooler can cool a 6970 sufficiently.

but needs enough spac e to perform pretty well
I am interested in this thing for my 470's but not at 60 dollars a pop that's $240 to fix them all up.
Still stuck here with a PD 820, 2 gigs of ram and a 4670.
I noticed they were prone to doing things like what you noticed.
Also the language can be a little bit broken.

AC will have better manufacturing but the extra heatpipe in this one should level the performance out.
Or this even I quite like
