Anidees RGB VGA Cooler Adds Airflow and Bling to Your Graphics Card
Anidees released the RGB VGA Cooler, which isn't strictly what its name means - it isn't a replacement to your graphics card's cooling solution, but rather a supplement. You install it on a slot below your graphics card, and it boosts airflow to it. The accessory takes up two expansion slots in your system, needs at least a PCIe x4 slot (for leverage, not power), and fastens into your case like any add-on card.
A shroud on the accessory suspends three 80 mm fans that each spin at speeds of up to 1,600 RPM, pushing 11.14 CFM of air, at a noise output of 19.3 dBA. You control the speed and lighting of the fans through an included RF remote control. You can additionally control it via software by plugging the cooler to a 4-pin fan header on your motherboard (just for its PWM signal). It relies on a SATA power input as its main source of power. You can also synchronize the lighting of the three fans by plugging it to a standard 3-pin ARGB header, to control it via popular RGB software that support the standard. The Anidees RGB VGA Cooler measures 30 cm in length, and is about 2 slots thick. It weighs 560 g. The company didn't reveal pricing.

"...just RGB the shit out of it..."
Anyhow, whoever is buying this (possibly me, who am I kidding...) would get it for the bling rather than the cooling and noise provided by the 3x80mm...
I really like how they have 3 fans blowing on a blower fan GPU.... so it is doing what? adding a little more air for the one fan but not really well and then blowing air onto a plastic housing.
even in a 3 fan design GPU cooler this doesn't make sense, blowing air onto a fan that is blowing air onto a heat sink? why?? seems like a lot of blowing of air that is just being disturbed but serving no real purpose, I almost feel like it might blow air away and could make temps worse?
