Arrrgh, giiiiief one for the GTX 280... =\
Sorry for the quality of the picture and my poor English and so disorganized. Any way I have just installed the T-rad2 to my 4870. Big problem. After I tighten up the T-rad2 to the card the car bend so I have added the Original X brack on the back of the card and it bend less, and I can't fit it to my board so I have to loosen up the cooler then I can place the card into the MB then tighten it up again. Notice that first picture the card is slightly bending. Hop that is no problem. Plus the installation manual there NO picture for 4870 so I just guess where the ram, volt sink is and for the low voltage the sink doesn't fit it is a bit short. So I end up I used 2 now is way too long. However, I tried first test with my normal setting the Third picture, and compare to the stock (60% fan speed) picture the second one. The card never goes more than 43c I have 2 92mm Zalman fans. So besides the bending card and Voltage sink doesn't fit. I am kind of happy with the result. By the way will bending be a problem?
could use some cable management there :]
Well, it might. At some point, when voltage regulation gets too hot it will behave unexpectedly (as the diodes reach their breakdown voltage easier at higher temperatures, and go into Geiger mode) and then it could overvolt or undervolt the card. So it could potentially fry it.
hi there
could you please let me know about hte LOAD temperatures with the new T-RAD2 on the mighty 4870 ? If OC too it could be awesome, thanks .
It is available at Petra's :up:

ok I woke up 3 this morning and I can't get back to sleep cause of the stupid bending issue. So end up I take the T-rad2 and card apart and reassemble it back I tried few different method. first I saw online installation guide is a bit different they use the hard ring on the frond size and soft on the back so I tried that way but there still a gap between the cooler and the card in the frint side. Then I end up putting both ring on the front side and finally it looks like it is level and a lot less bending of the card but I still have to add the stock X brace in the back side. As result it is few more degree less now. May be is because of I test it at mid night so room temp is so low about 12-14c. But any way at least now the cooler is tighten up and only slight bending. I am happy now.:rofl:
by the way this is how I put the ram sink and volt sink
too expensive if you ask me. a $70(including fans) cooling sistem for a $140 card? watercooling is cheaper :shrug:
Thank you for hte response .
I meant , could you let me know about the whole temperatures in gpu-z while being in full load , for example with 20 min of crysis or 20 min of ATT (Ati Tray Tool rendering ) ? It could be great, check this out (in italian , if you've got questions just ask me) :

What fans were you useing on that accelero s1 and was it a rev 2?
Your memio temps seem pretty high for an accelero aswell.
Also I'm curious as to why you only tested it at high on 1280x1000 since thats not much for a 4870 to handle.
that's just the summary of some different configs , I've just tested my own reference sapphire hd4870. I've tested @ 1280x1024 bc , since it's the default setting, we're all able to compare different settings with the same tests ;) . Regarding the resolution , indeed .. This video card it's the 1680x1050 queen, possibly with aa-af ;)
Keep in mind that the first results were posted 1 month ago and it was hotter than now , with an ambient temperature higher than now . You should expect a couple of degrees lower than that .
k, but usually all the temps are within 10 degrees of each other with the accelero. Can't translate what fans your using...sorry don't speak any italian.
the HR-03GT would definitely out perform the t-rad2 with 2x 92mm fans.
and product a would beat product be if it were made even bigger.
The point is it wouldn't unless it was doubled in size and with the way the hr-03gt is built there's be no vreg area airflow getting through and the cards wouldn't do so well.
2x 92mm NANOXIA fans ;)
Here we go, how to use ATT :
http://www.pctunerup.com/up/results/...owtouseatt.JPG
Install it and follow this tiny guide .
Check the temps and let me know, thank you in advance :up:
I'm sorry to disappoint you but the hr03gt it's worse than this , on a 4870 :(Quote:

here is a pic for idol @ room temp 32c
As good as it looks, it's still going to bite it's teeth out on the 20 dollar Accelero, or at least it should. Although, many buyers will buy it just because it's new and the "old" Accelero obviously can't have anything to say.
can any one post Original stock cooler for me please to compare? Cause I never test it when stock. Thanks.
so now the time is 23:23 I am in Bay area, CA. Room temp is about 22c and here is the result it is really similar to noon time which room temp is 32c. So no idea why this behavior happening I thought it support to be a little cooler but seem like everything is the same... BTW GPUZ 0.2.8 is out
