Arctic Touts Radeon HD 8000 Series Compatibility on Accelero Coolers
Not too long ago, Arctic leaked a bucket list socket LGA1150 processors which aren't due for another five months. The PC cooling major now updated the GPU support lists of its Arctic Xtreme 7970 and Arctic Accelero S1 Plus to include three Radeon HD 8000 series GPUs, HD 8970, HD 8950, and HD 8870. Either Arctic is riding on the assumption that the mount hole spacing of those GPUs won't change from current HD 7000 series, or that it's catering to the various HD 8000 series desktop graphics cards in circulation by OEM desktop PCs, which are rebrands of HD 7000 series parts.

If you are thinking about this kind of cooler without having already purchased the GPU then you'd be better off with a Twin Frozr or Windforce X3
The arctic mainly uses mini heatsinks unless it is a very specific unit like the Arctic for dual GPUs
