Now they're all doing it. It looks awesome as hell though.

if repost let me know
| Zotac has yet another GeForce GTX 285 SKU in the making. This time, it plans to use its own-designed GTX 285 PCB with an Arctic Cooling Accelero Xtreme GPU cooler. Zotac isn't using the entire kit, as the NVIO2 and VRM heatsinks aren't compatible with this PCB design. Other manufacturers using this cooler for similar graphics cards include Galaxy, which uses it for its GTX 285 2 GB, and Inno3D, which uses the entire kit for its GTX 280 accelerator. With the new PCB design, Zotac rearranged the card's VRM area. The design differs from another PCB design for the GTX 285 Zotac designed earlier (read here). The card uses 6 vGPU + 3 vMem power phases. Ferrite-core chokes are made use of, and an extra vGPU phase has been added for redundancy and stability (angled chokes next to the power connectors, pictured below). 1 GB memory across a 512-bit interface is present, with the company making use of Hynix N3C 0.77 ns GDDR3 chips. The SKU is almost ready to be announced. |

no problem, for spending money on xtra air cooling is pointless since i switch video cards all the time plus most of the time your not going to get better overclocks neways. but i wish evga and/or xfx would come out with some sick coolers for their video cards like this one.

Ok I'll found a review of this on an EVGA GTX260 55nm... in German.
and it drops the temps pretty good...

I'll guess that the GTX285 will get overclocked good with this cooler.

Just a small proviso...
My Asus 4870X2 uses a similar tri-fan design.
It takes 3 slots total while in use so those considering using two on a pair of GTX260's for example should make sure that their board has sufficient clearance and that they don't need to plug extra pci-e cards in (sound for example)
