I have a 260 GTX 216 65nm card, and not sure which cooler to get...
I am looking at these two: Arctic Cooling Accelero Xtreme GTX 280 http://www.arctic-cooling.com/catalo...ath=2_&mID=237 Thermalright HR-03 GTX http://www.thermalright.com/new_a_pa...r_hr03gtx.html I am wondering which would be better? If I were to go with Thermalright, I would also get a Scythe S-Flex 1900rpm fan (please tell me if a good idea or not / suggestions of other fans). I have also read that the AC isnt the easiest to install, and the voltage heatsinks are crap and actually turn out to be a increase in temperatures.. |

The Thermalright is really good, I suggest you get the Scythe fan along with it. Thermalright makes one of the best coolers for NVIDIA cards. My friend had a HR-03 GT on his 8800GT and it was very cool.

be advised that the HR will not allow for SLi on a 200 series card from what I've read...

The Arctic Cooling Accelero Xtreme GTX 280 will only allow SLI if you have two slots between your PCI-e slots. So if you have 3 PCI-e i.e. one every other slot then both coolers are out.
I would go with the Arctic cooling just because of the crazy size of the Thermalright cooler.
