Arctic Cooling launches Accelero for GTX 280

Arctic Cooling has expanded the Accelero line-up with what they say is the ultimate product to cool nVidia's GTX 200 graphics cards. The Accelero Xtreme GTX 280 has three 92 mm PWM-controlled fans, as well as five heatpipes. The fans spin at 1000 to 2000 RPM, which according to Arctic Cooling, makes it possible to cool cards of up to 250 Watt. Another claim is that the new cooler keeps the temperature up to 31º Celsius lower than nVidia's reference model. Because of the PWM fans, the sound production should stay limited, even at full speed.

 Arctic Cooling's Accelero Xtreme GTX 280 will be released in March, bearing a recommended price of 50 Euro. Also bundled with the cooler is the company's MX-2 thermal paste and six years of warranty.
