Testurteil: "9 out of 10"
Test: Einzeltest: Arctic Cooling Accelero TWIN TURO
Zitat: Golden bear award
Pros: + Light Wieght Design
Cons: - The adapter crossing 12volt and 5volt to make 7 volt´s
The Accelero Twin Turbo did exactly what I expected from a great manufacturer like Artic Cooling. This GPU cooler kept my Hd4870 card cool and not only did it do that very well, it lightened up the total wieght of the video card itself. Also, it quietened down the video card fans. Installation of the Twin Turbo was real simple. It was not overly complictated and the instructions were very precise on what to do at what step and how to do that step (for instance, with my HD4870 I had to leave one memory sink off).I couldn´t find any real flaws with this product. So I will only point out things I felt Arctic Cooling can improve upon. Instead of putting the thermal paste on the GPU cooler´s base, I would like to have a tube of thermal paste included. This way, if we need to do a few test fittings, we would not waste a lot of good thermal paste. Also, there´s the PSU fan adapter. I feel that these fans ran extremly quiet while they were being fed 12 volts. I personally don´t like crossing my 5 volt and 12 volt lines to make 7 volts. Arctic Cooling could have included a fan controller to control the fan speeds. With the Actic Cooling Accelero Twin Turbo having a pricepoint of around 40 U.S. dollars, that makes this product very attractive.
