5Excellent GPU coolerDec 06, 2005
By Section 8
If you have a decent graphics card this is the perfect slot cooler to keep it running longer and cooler. I've had a bunch of slot coolers, but this is the only one I found that has an intake and exhaust. It does take up two PCI slots, but most mobos today have at least 5 slots so it shouldn't be a concern. Lowered my temp. on my card by 12 degrees.

2Can't really recommend this unless ya want a pretty light.Jan 18, 2006
By Grimlock
I've had this product in my windowed Lian-Li PC-60 for about 5 months now. I had bought it for 2 reasons: to light up my case, and to help cool my 6800gt. Now the former it does pretty well-it is impressive to look at through the window (and it's easier to install than a cold cathode light). However, as an intake fan, it seems to bring in more dust than air (and my PC is in a finished basement that I try to keep tidy). At any fan setting other than low, the VCool's fan noise is noticeable over my other fans (3 Aerocool 80mm, 2 92mm Thermaltake Silent Cats, and the 120mm cooling my Enermax Liberty PSU), especially on the highest setting. But over the past month the VCool has started to do something particulary annoying-at bootup, the VCool would rev up to a very high speed, regardless of the setting on it's fan control. The first time it did it, I thought a cable had snarled into one of my case fans-that's how loud it is. I don't have the VCool hooked up to another fan control, and I'm just using a standard molex connector to power it, and there's a free PCI slot between it and my 6800gt, so there's no obstruction to cause the racket; I'm at a loss for the cause of it's behavior. It only did this sporadically at first, but within the past week, it has become a guarranteed occurance from a cold boot. The fan does quiet down eventually, but I feel the noise it now generates, the fact that the intake is unfiltered, along with the fact that I now have an Arctic Silencer for my video card (the VCool can't reach the intake of the cooler, even with it's extension attached), outweighs whatever decorative purpose it had.

5VCooler: good or bad?Mar 30, 2007
By Oldtechnohobbiest "Mr. Nobody"
Beats me, I just got it yesterday but I'll update this review as time passes.

I have an HP and they seem to be prone to heat prostrate so I decided to get this yesterday, especially since last year the factory installed blower spent too much time kicking into emergency mode than I liked. This computer automatically turns the factory fan up to high when the air temperature reaches 72 degrees and it is loud. The Vcool I bought at Staples is only about one third as loud when turned up to high.

Pros: Has a high RPM.
Three speed selector switch.
Glows blue when turned on--pretty but who cares.
On low apparently is/almost is, silent.
On high about one third as loud as factory fan running full blast.
Apparently blows the air it sucks-in straight up.
Also I seem to remember some of this air is blown down--not much.
I'm not sure about the temperature difference, however my computer
fan usually goes high speed about six times a day, today it turned on only once.
The price is fair--no s/h charges.

Cons:
So far, only one: they should have included instructions with the
the device instead of assuming everybody can reach them on the
internet for a down load. I hope I hooked mine up correctly.

I'll add to or take away from this review when I know more--bye!

It is April 18--all is well.
It is Feb 11, 2008--all is well.
June 14,2008--it's still working fine!

4It does what Antec AdvertisedJan 15, 2009
By H. Chen "haochen3d.com"
My overclocked (626MHZ/1053MHZ Core/Memory) GTX260 reaches 75C when running in full power. After I installed the Antec Cool two slots below my video card -- with a Sound Card in between, it actually drops my GTX260 temperature a max of 5C (in high fan speed)! Quite impressive considering the setup. However, it is the 2nd LOUDEST fan when running in max speed. Nevertheless, it still helps to cool my entire system (CPU, Motherboard, and the GTX260) 3C lower when running in Min speed during moderate use/idle.

5VGA coolerOct 02, 2008
By Mark L. Schlappi
The fan on my VGA card quit working and the manufacture could not replace it. I bought the VGA cooler to replace the fan and it has worked fine for over a year.
