Arctic Accelero Hybrid III-140 Review


This time on OCinside.de we have a review of the Arctic Accelero Hybrid III-140, an alternate GPU cooler. The Accelero series has tradition among Arctics product. Arctic released their first GPU cooler under this name in 2006. The Hybrid-III, as the name suggests, is a hybrid cooling solution, meaning it got elements from both conventional air- as also water-cooling. All-in-one cooling solutions for CPUs already got a fair amount of market share, so why not transition it to GPUs?! We will find out if it is that easy in our Arctic Accelero Hybrid III-140 video card cooler test.

After opening the box one aspect stands out, lots of cardboard and very few plastic. The boxes help to keep it tidy and reduce plastic litter.
