ARCTIC COOLING, a Swiss provider of cooling solutions, announced today the launch of the new Accelero XTREME 9800, a cooler that continues the Accelero Xtreme series of coolers, developed especially for the latest nVIDIA GeForce 9800 series graphics cards. Accelero XTREME 9800 is a high performance cooling solution able to provide up to 33% more cooling efficiency[admark=1] than any stock cooler does.

Accelero XTREME 9800 has been designed following the model of the highly appreciated Accelero XTREME 8800 series, but it offers much more cooling power to the enthusiasts. The heat produced by the GeForce 9800 GTX card is dissipated through five 6mm heat pipes and 107 fins. Accelero XTREME 9800 uses three 80mm PWM fans to ensure an efficient heat transfer and it features no less than 240 Watt cooling power, translated into a temperature reduction of 29?C as compared to a stock cooler. Besides providing such a heightened cooling performance, Accelero XTREME 9800 also allows users to experience enhanced overclocking and it prolongs the life of the graphics cards as well.

ARCTIC COOLING has developed its new Accelero XTREME 9800 just like it did with its other products, aiming not only to excel in cooling, but also to provide a very good noise management. The unique fan holder the three 80mm PWM fans are installed on is able to eliminate any buzzing sounds, while the low noise impellers that equip the fans provide even more efficient noise control. Accelero XTREME 9800 has been designed to minimize the noise level down to 0.7 sone.

The Accelero XTREME 9800 has 560g in weight. Its heatsink measures 248 L x 88 W x 31 H mm and its three 80mm fans feature a 700 - 2000 RPM speed. The fans are controlled by PWM and they can provide a 20 CFM/fan air flow. The device has been designed to be compatible only with the nVIDIA GeForce 9800 GTX graphics cards.
