[Benchmark & Review] Arctic Accelero Xtreme 7970 DCACO-V15G300-BL

I always had high temps last few weeks. I cleaned the cooler of it. Had no dust in it that could affect the temps so much so ordered a Arctic Accelero Xtreme 7970 DCACO-V15G300-BL yesterday.

It had a lot of good reviews so should be good to go.
Review and benchmark will be here in a day or 3 :thup:

  • Description
    - Great VGA cooler. It is really virtually silent, even at 2000rpm! If you compare it with the stock cooler.
  • Proof
    - Check the images below
  • Negatives
    - It's a bit big. It didn't fit in my case i had to put my SSD 2 racks up in the harddrive bay. It was all about millimeters. But it did fit in my Antec 902.
  • Keyword Phrase
    - Great product if you are looking for a better cooler than the stock one, go get this one. But make sure it does fit your case! Because its large.

Cable management looks terrible but it isn't that bad.

A bit confused.. are you going to show a comparison between the two?

The graph is quite confusing to me...
