Arctic Cooling Announces the Accelero Xtreme 4870X2

The Swiss low noise cooling solution provider Arctic Cooling today announced the launch of the Accelero XTREME 4870X2. Especially designed for the ATI Radeon HD4870X2, the Accelero XTREME 4870X2 follows the sophisticated design of the Accelero XTREME series, offering the best cooling solution for this high-end VGA card.

Extreme cooling performance
Outstanding cooling comes from outstanding components. The Accelero XTREME 4870X2 is equipped with three 92mm PWM fans running from 1,000 to 2,000 RPM, generating 81 CFM airflow which allows the fans to remove the heat from the two GPUs efficiently. The eight-heatpipe design also improves heat dissipation and achieves 320 Watts cooling capacity. The result is significant - the GPU temperature is 50°C lower than with the stock cooler. This enhances not only the overclock performance, but also extends the service life of your valuable graphics card.

Quiet cooling guaranteed
By using the low noise impeller and patented fan holder, the three 92mm PWM fans are incredibly quiet. Also thanks to the PWM function, the fans run just at necessary speed while offering sufficient cooling at the lowest noise level. Even running at full speed 2,000 RPM, the Accelero XTREME 4870X2 operates almost in silent with only 0.5 Sone of sound, creating a much quieter gaming environment beyond anyone's imagination.

The Accelero XTREME 4870X2 comes with a 6-year limited warranty. This product will be available by end of
March 2009. The MSRP is US$68.30 and 53.95€ (excluding VAT).

bobseptici love to find this in the UK.
The GTX280 version is coming out in the UK, so I see no reason for this not to.

I wonder if this will work on the 3870X2. I might just grab one to try it out.

jbunch07This still keeps it dual slot right?
Unlikely... My twin turbo already takes 3 slots.

Monster cooler for a monster card. Why even bother to have 2 of these in the first place unless your running a 30" screen.

no because it doesn't have heat pipes as the A/C does.

Looks like a pretty sweet air cooler for the 4870x2. Should perform great and quite.

Dosent have to be exactly the same. If that was the case then there would be no reason to buy their after market cooler.

if you saw what it looks like you would know A/C had zero to do with it all it is is hunks of aluminum with fans on top, and it's not even a very good cooler.
