Arctic Cooling NV Silencer 5 (Rev. 3) 7800 GTX GPU Cooler

Sidney · 7th October 2005, 06:35

Today 3DXtreme is taking a look at the newly released Arctic Cooling NV Silencer 5 revision 3 designed specifically for the NVIDIA 7800 GTX series of video cards. Arctic-Cooling has been producing some of the best after market coolers for GPUs replacing noisy, inefficient stock cooling with a unit that outperforms while producing very little noise volume. The NVIDIA 7800 GTX already includes a stock cooler that is silent, so why the need for Arctic Cooling to step up and release this modified version of the already successful NV Silencer 5? The 7800 GTX’s cooler may be quiet it’s also not all that effective as the load temperatures can slowly climb towards 80 degrees Celsius. And while this is a safe temperature according to NVIDIA’s specifications allowing your $500 video card to see temperatures this high is something even the average enthusiast would cringe at.
