I have a RV02-E White and currently have a GTX 560ti hawk and a Silver Arrow cooling my 2500k @4.8ghz.
The problem is that my GPU is getting really really hot and with RMA being terrible in my country there is no point sending it back ...
I am looking at the Arctic Accelero Extreme Plus 2 or water cooling the card with an Antec 620 ... ...
1) Will the Arctic Cooler be a good design for this kind of case ...
2) If I use the Antec 620 ... will placing in on the exhaust fan behind my Silver Arrow impede it's performance ...
All information would be greatly appreciated ...
Kind Regards.

I want to ask first, how hot is is getting?

the accelero extreme plus 2 will perform worse then the twin frozer in a RV02 due to the heatpipe orientation. if you look at the pipes

339

when it's mounted vertically, the heat pipes will drain the liquid all the way to the bottom of the pipe. there is no way the liquid can climb that much vertical distance regardless of the type of wick they have in those pipes.

the twin frozer should not perform that poorly in your rig. so the question is as .themetal asked, just how hot is the card getting?

You can use double sided tape or velcro to mount the fan. It brought my temps down a few degrees on my cards.

shouldn't need it if he has the middle fan on high. granted those AP181's get pretty loud on high, but you really shouldn't expect silence when going SLi smile.gif

I added the fan in the summer time to keep my cards temps in check. It definitely helps if your looking for more cooling options. thumb.gif

I never knew that the heatpipe orientation made so much difference ... I thought that the design of a heatpipe meant it can be mounted any which way ... ... could this be the cause of my heat woes ??
