Well... in my part of the world it goes to somwhere near 35$ wich is out of the "budget-friendly" zone actually.
Also, this 51mm distance might be only the width, since the only videocards with this spacing are GTX460/GTX465
And this named hole spacing is, in fact, 51 x 61mm.
Eventually...
First experience: Accelero L2 Plus
Positive:
low profile
Negative:
some fins overlap with CMOS battery and the mini-SAS connector
no match for the hole pattern (53 x 53 mm is the closest size)
These can be fixed with a cutting/drilling tool (I already own Proxxon 28481) and longer M2 screws...
Been thinking about the VGA coolers ...and made the first trial :) with errors.
The tests were done with an Arctic Cooling Accelero L2 PLUS
Long story short: there is no match in the hole pattern of the frame holding the heatsink.
Need different frame or make custom holes..
The good news is...
Hi all,
There are several VGA cooling solutions that go near the 51 x 51 mm alignement.
Has anyone tried - let's say:
- Acceleron Mono Plus, from Arctic Cooling
- VF900-Cu, from Zalman
Or any other similar ones? I'd give a try for the Zalman one, especially since it has a lower footprint
