Default Good VGA Cooler?
Hey people i want to know which of these coolers are the best. I have seen the reviews for the twin turbo and im quite impressed but im not sure since zalman introduced the gv1000 and it looks like it can out perform the twin turbo and there are no reviews for it

Zalman GV1000


Arctic Cooling Twin Turbo


Thanks

I have used both, and the Accelero performs better in my opinion.

How exactly does the Zalman look like it performs better? The heatpipes are off the the side and not actively cooled by the fan, and there's only one fan anyway.

I'd definitely go with the Arctic Cooling.

Artic cooling is a really good cooler, the other one does its job.. but not as great as twin turbo.
