 Inno3D GeForce GTX 260 iChill Accelero XXX

Product: GeForce GTX 260 iChill Accelero XXX
Manufacturer: Inno3D - iChill edition SP216
SKU code: C2603X-M5LTCDS
Information: Inno3D
Street price: $289

One of the companies out there in that big hardware market involved in cooling solutions is Arctic cooling. Personally I consider them to be in the top three of cooling manufacturers, ranking with names such as Zalman.

It is for that reason that we always get a little thrilled once we hear them announce new products. A week or two ago they announced two new VGA coolers. Among them a new Accelero XTREME GTX cooler, designated for the nVIDIA GeForce GTX 260/280/285.

Main features

  • Extreme cooling performance - up to 250 Watts
  • 3 ultra quiet 92mm PWM fans with low noise impeller
  • Efficient heat dissipation via 5 heatpipes
  • Patented fan holder eliminates the buzzing sounds
  • RAM and voltage regulator cooling
  • Pre-applied MX-2
  • SLI compatible

The Accelero XTREME GTX coolers are equipped with no less than three 92mm PWM fans that run from 1,000 to 2,000 RPM. Together with five heatpipes, the Accelero XTREME GTX 280 achieves 250 Watt cooling capacity. And that's roughly 31°C lower than NVIDIA's reference cooler. Interesting eh ?

Then another favorite company of mine is Inno3D. This Asian company certainly has shown muscle and innovation when it comes to graphics cards over the past few years. Often they surprise me with original products. And that's just so good, to be original and diversify yourself in this market. So when two of my favorite companies combine forces ..  the outcome just can not disappoint.

Inno3D released a GeForce GTX 260 iChill edition with AC Accelero GTX cooler. The product will be available in really small volume, but in advance .. if you are into this ... run to the stores now.

The card is the SP216 version, an updated 55nm GPU based GeForce GTX 260. The 216SP versions, obviously referring to the 216 shader processors that are active and crunching data for you in that GPU, which is 24 shader processors more than the regular GTX 260.

The card has a 620Mz for the core clock frequency and 2,100MHz on the memory. Despite the mammoth looks and size of this cooling solution, we were so impressed. Anyway, have a peek at the product and then browse onward to the next page where we'll startup the review.

In this article we review the beast, the GTX 770 HerculeZ X3 Ultra from Inno3D is locked and loaded with the mighty HerculeZ X3 cooler, that's three slots wide but keeping the GPU under 55 Degrees C and completely silent. Pure awesomeness. That's not all though, it is factory overclocked for you at a very high level but even so can be tweaked quite a bit further.

Inno3D GeForce GTX 580 OC review
We review the Inno3D GeForce GTX 580OC. Despite a very high price tag the product seems to become a nice success. As such directly at launch several models based of this SKU where already announced, e.g. the regular clocked models, factory higher clocked models, liquid cooled models. This OC edition, in particular this is a reference GeForce GTX 580 that has been clocked faster to 820 MHz on the core where it also welcomes a nice bump on the overall memory frequency.
