The award winning passive VGA cooler extends its compatibility to the latest graphic cards
The Accelero S1 Rev2 dramatically extends the compatibility to many of the latest graphic cards. It supports high-end to main stream graphic cards including the latest hot selling ATI HD4870 and NVIDIA 9800GTX+.
The Accelero S1 Rev2 is supplied with a new flexible mounting mechanism, multiple screw hole sets and modifications to the heatpipes enabling it to fit a wider range of leading graphic cards. As a result more gamers can benefit from no noise by adopting the Accelero S1 Rev2 which has dramatically improved the gaming experience.
To provide noiseless cooling for high-end graphic cards, the Accelero S1 Rev2 has a high performance passive heatsink featuring four heatpipes connected to a extra large surface area. This effectively removes the heat from the GPU keeping the components cool. Thanks to the efficient design, the Accelero S1 Rev2 can even outperform some active cooling solutions. The Accelero S1 Rev2 creates a true industry leading zero noise cooling solution for all enthusiasts.

Cold air is drawn from outside to cool the fins directly
The fins design has been optimised to enhance cooling performance
Accelero S1 Rev2 features four copper heatpipes which connect directly from the GPU core. The heatpipes with sintered powder wicks provide ultimate heat conductivity. Heat from the GPU is rapidly dissipated through 32 fins that extend beyond the height of the graphic card. These optimised fins design allow for better air flow thus removing the heat more effectively. Together with the bundled RAM heat sinks and voltage regulator heat spreader the Accelero S1 Rev2 provides an all-round passive solution that achieves the best cooling performance.

Never compromise on noise
Install and forget about it No moving parts means it is maintenance free. An extra pair of mounting clips provides extensive protection to the graphic card that prevents damage from improper handling. With the help of the new mounting design the Accelero S1 Rev2 is widely compatible with high end ATI and NVIDIA graphic cards.
Require more cooling power?
The Accelero S1 Rev2 can be paired with the Turbo Module the twin fan add-on which further increases the cooling power of Accelero S1 Rev2 with enhanced cooling performance under extremely quiet operation. With the Turbo Module installed it is possible to overclock the GPU and memory, allowing the user to squeeze more graphic performance than ever before.

Fitted one of these to quieten my PC. Noisy stock fan kept the GPU between 40c and 50c. This keeps it between 39c and 42c. Great cooling with no noise!! GFX card is a 9600GT.

Bought this and the matching 'turbo' fans to replace a stock GTS250 cooler, and have seen huge drops in the card temperatures.
- Idle at desktop went from 52 to 38°C.
- futuremark stress test now maxes out at 62°C, whereas previously I stopped it at 90°C for fear of damaging the card!
