Default HR-03. Any good?

Thinking of getting on for my 2900. Are they any good? Would you reccomend it over the stock leaf blower? Does it cool all components?

Maybe the Arctic accellero S1 or 2?

Also, is there anything like this

for the r600 GPUs? Maybe will one of these work with an r600 waterblock?

Anything made by Thermalright is definitely worth the money. And yes, the HR-03 is a very good GPU cooler.

Meh, stay away from Thermaltake watercooling. I know from experience. The acrylic on the CPU block started cracking and I caught it, luckily, before it could leak.

Remember to get the HR-03/RV600 and not the regular HR-03.

For $150? You could make your own custom loop for $150 and it would cool a hell of allot better then that.

An HR-03 usually costs $60, sometimes less.

Even in NZ, the price of the HR-03 is only $90, and prices here in NZ are usually 50-100% more than the US price.

the accelero's are great! i had an s2 on my 7600gs and the idle temps were about 49C this thing (without the fans) took it down to 21-25C! that's amazing. The accelero's are great passive coolers and with a bit more air movement over them, are unbeatable for their price.
