Thermalright has announced the successor to its T-Rad2 graphics card cooler, which will be named T-Rad2 GTX. Despite what the name suggests, the card isn't only compatible with nVidia's GeForce GTX-graphics card, but also with several other GT(S)-models, as well as a number of AMD Radeon cards. The heatsink is sized 228 x 140 x 25 mm and according to Thermalright, its 360 grams make it a lightweight GPU-cooler. Six nickled heatpipes transfer the heat from the copper base to the aluminum cooling fins, each of which are soldered to a heatpipe, to optimize the cooling.

The T-Rad² GTX has room for two optional 92 mm fans, or one larger 120 mm fan. Thermalright's new GPU-cooler is bundled with 25 small cooling pads, to be placed on the GDDR-memory chips and power design of the card. A tube of its own Chill Factor thermal paste is also enclosed.
Thermalright has not yet announced what its T-Rad² GTX cooler will cost, but it's likely to be between 30 and 40 euro.
