what about the air flow? does it take the air from the case and blow it out? or does it take the ar from outside the case and blows is inside it? thanks
my ATI Radeon 4850 [gigabyte] with zalman cooler that came stock with it doesn't get hotter than 60°C and its overclocked [gpu from 625mhz to 700mhz and memory from 993mhz to 1053mhz] and i love it [idle temp is 36°C]
btw use gpu-z for watching the temps and ATI tool for stressing my card... my card model is GV-R485ZL-512H
I just installed on my HD 4890. Plugged into 12v. My problem is I cannot change the fan speed at all through any software. It says it is changing, but it has no effect on the fans- they just sit at 1980 RPM. any ideas? I have everything hooked up correctly.
Firstly, very nice video and you have done amazing comparison and research here!
But, I'm very dissapointed both in performance and noise...
When comparing my XFX Radeon HD 4870 512mb stock and ACATT temps, ACATT has circa same temps as stock in 20% fan speed, even higher! And the 12v doesn't much help the thing.
Do you mean that it can't change the speed correctly. It was like that when I got the card and you had to manually change the speed, but they've fixed it in some drivers. I can tell, because it gets really loud in some games.
ic, that's good to know, in that case u should look into the dust between the fan and the heatsink fins, it's likely there maybe no air going through the cooler, cause when i was using the reference cooler b4 buying this one, at 60% fan speed i dont' exceed 65-70c on load
I have that case! and i just ordered that fan for my hd 4890 :). Can you control the fan speed in CCC if you plug the power into the power supply +12V?
You've got very good temp. I installed this on my 9800Gt and with the power adaptor directly connected to psu molex connector 12v I get idle 52C and load 65C. I've tried everything but can't get them down!
When the stock cooler reaches 100% it's like a plane... prepare to lift off. :-D LOL. Thanks for this review . I have Gecube hd4850 and I will buy this cooler for sure.
is this cooler any good for my gainward 4870? i have 48c in idle at 25% fan speed working very silent with my stock cooler. i can barely hear the fan when i`m near the card. is there any difference between 4870 stock cooler and twin turbo? i want my system dead silent :)
hey again btw can u put the gfx card in straight after putting the fan on lol? newbie to this sort of thing :p i can build pcs fine but never put a market cooler on
yes, Twin Turbo is not a "Quality" cooler, it's meant to be budget cheap cooler, uses cheap alluminium material, but it amazingly performs very well. so to answer ur question, i can have hte card stright because the cooler is not heavy at all.
how mey slots does ur 4850 take up with that cooler
cos i wanna get that cooler but need to make sure i have room in my case :p i currently have a Gigabyte HD 4850 Stockcooler and Sapphire HD 4850 with the none stock cooler.
I've ordered one of these puppies for my Asus 4850, and can't wait for it to arrive. I reckon I will run it at 30-35% in the end. It will be such a change though, quiet and cool.
iam running 2 4850's in CF mode and using teh 4 sata ports for my sata2 raido 0 array so having a large cooler on the cards just wont fit..rive tuned just saved me ass
what about the air flow? does it take the air from the case and blow it out? or does it take the ar from outside the case and blows is inside it? thanks

Everest: GPU's DispIO and Shader dropped ~10c and ~6c .
The MemIO (the CCC Temperature) is same or even higher as stock. Could still reach 84c in gaming!
Idle temps:
GPU Diode (DispIO)42 °C (108 °F)
GPU Diode (MemIO)60 °C (140 °F)
GPU Diode (Shader)48 °C (118 °F)
7v, and especially 12v, in my opinion, are noisy! Not an option for silent-computer-seekers!
Don't know, how you get that amazing results! :/
But anyway, thanks for the awesome video!

You were pretty lucky with the stock cooler. Mine runs at 80°C idle with 50% speed. Furmark (1280x1024, 8xAA) can make it burn at 110°C.
I have a sapphire singe slot one.

what do you mean? I can change the fan speed, but if the driver thinks the card is too hot, it will make the fan go faster regardless of my setting.
