Some of today's high-end computer enthusiasts just won't settle for the stock cooling solution for their latest graphics card, since they will probably want to boost its performance level, by overclocking its GPU, memory and Shaders. Specifically for this type of users, Spire has recently announced a new product to come to meet all their expectations and requirements, but only so if they also happen to be NVIDIA costumers.

As most of you must be aware, NVIDIA is currently the leading manufacturer of high-end graphics cards and, despite the fact that this is bound to change pretty soon (with the release of the HD 4870 X2), its GeForce cards will still remain among the best high-performance cards on the market. This can only mean that they will also require a powerful cooling solution, in case users decide to tweak the GPU's performance. And here's where Spire comes into play, as its latest product could prove a very reliable solution for overclocking enthusiasts.

Simply dubbed SilverBlaze, Spire's latest graphics card cooler has been built to accommodate virtually any NVIDIA performance card currently available on the market. It sports a high-quality 12VDC fan that provides a silent working environment at 21dBA. The 2000RPM sleeve bearing 80mm fan features 11 blades and guarantees an ample airflow of 28.0CFM, which is meant to cool down that high-end GPU.

down the memory chips placed on the PCB of the graphics card.

Spire's latest cooling solution is said to come with a 30,000-hour lifespan and is now available for shipping, so you should see it at your local retailer very soon. Unfortunately, the company didn't reveal the suggested pricing for it, so you will have to wait until the product is available at retailers to find that out.

Spire is one of the largest manufacturers of cooling products for computer systems. It has been around since 1991 and is currently headquartered in China, but it has branch offices all over the world.
