very good VGA cooler

There are indeed a lot of them, I use also the MK 26 from Prolimatech costing twice as much. He has only one drawback, you need a case with at least 22cm width depending on the graphics card. Width mind you, not depth. Although the Arctic here is also a 3 Slot Monster but without sacrificing much more compact in the package and the perfect cooling. We have at least 5! Heatpipes. In addition, the fan is already tuned and gives a full frame by a few centimeters of air downwards compared with a strap-120mm fan with own frame.
So perfect, what can you say. The newer models with the added RAM cooler module ala Twin Turbo II, III, S3 are in my opinion marketing nonsense. They must be fitted too complicated and not do anything better than properly glued RAM cooler modules. In addition, memory chips are not hot-headed and very easy to cool with a good case cooling a. Daselbe applies to the power supply modules, which are usually very hot - Shelf. It burns like the same times the finger at them. But again, a good draft a passive heatsink bonded and already we are in ranges from 50-60 ° C and thus completely in the green zone.
I recommend as the way thermal pads or glue .. is easier to process and makes no mess, from the hours of waiting the glue apart. Although pads always seem to shake, but this is due to the type and thickness of the material - a sufficient connection is still available and it also drops nothing.
