| | (Post a comment) » VGA Cooler Mini-RoundupLike the CPU industry, prices are rapidly falling in graphics industry -- high-end cards like the X1900 XT can be found for under $350, while the X1800 XT 512MB is below $200 and the 7900 GT is quickly approaching $250. Prices have never been this good. A lot of these high-end cards however generate a lot of noise, and so many enthusiasts are swapping out the stock coolers for aftermarket units and finding that the new coolers generate less noise with lower GPU temps. In this article, we're taking a look at four aftermarket VGA coolers from Arctic Cooling, Thermaltake, and Zalman, with prices ranging from $22-$60. See how the new coolers compare to each other, as well as stock cooling in noise and performance in this article! |  Previous news article | Back to main news | Next news article  |
