Arctic Cooling Accelero S1 VGA Heatsink Review

Very nice review Blake. I liked the step by step instructions on installing the cooler onto the card. I still prefer the Thermalright HR-03 when it comes to passive cooling on a graphics card, though.

Thanks Nate. I actually have an HR-03 but I didn't have time to test it for this review. I'll try and get it installed next week and update this thread with a follow-up comparison for ya
