NVIDIA GeForce GTX 480 Cooler Round Up Zotac AMP! vs GELID Icy Vision vs Stock Linus Tech Tips

I don’t spend too much time on this, but you can see my results if you’re interested. I’ll ruin the surprise though. The Zalman cooler on the AMP! card wins by a long shot.

    He hooked up the Gelid Icy Vision to the GPU’s fan header, but the Gelid Icy Vision doesn’t support RPM control through the regular PWM headers.
    At 6:45, Linus even mentions that it sounds exactly the same at 100%

    He should’ve hooked it up to a 3-pin fan header on the motherboard and control it through voltage control (by bios or Speedfan)

    The interesting thing about this cooler, is it’s ability to cool efficiently at very low speeds:

    That Gelid Icy Vision, Would it be worth buying it for a 580 ?

    linus,, i’ll give you 2 times 34 euro if you give me 78 euro <=]

  11. luukske21 says:

    @Spartan117A1

    buy a DCII version of this card ^^

  12. Spartan117A1 says:

    @luukske21 If I asked if an aftermarket cooler was worth buying, One would assume I already have said video card.

    Which I do. A reference model.

  17. PaRan0iiid says:

    to be 100% acurate you have to try all three coolers on the same card..

  18. AsianPerson3 says:

    @PaRan0iiid no not really, troll.

  19. PaRan0iiid says:

    @AsianPerson3 trol is your father maybe but other a little bit clever person could know that each hip is a little bit different (heat spread) so the results may vary

  20. AsianPerson3 says:

    @PaRan0iiid awwwwww poor baby QQ bitch!!!!! btw wtf is a hip. never heard of one on a gpu. You truly know jack shit about computers. you’re free to GTFO.

  21. PaRan0iiid says:

    @AsianPerson3 hip is a chip without “c” letter stupid fuck. Im possibly older then your father baby boy ;) so better for you to get some rice and beef a dog

  22. AsianPerson3 says:

    @AsianPerson3 You may be older. But my dad is way more intelligence and mature than you’ll ever be. I’m sorry your life amounted to a small knoll of shit. But it really gives you no reason to troll people on the internet. Unplug your computer and maybe give your grandchildren a visit for the holidays. Or better yet. Go kill yourself in a nice quiet secluded area. My condolences to your family. If they still care.

  23. sinephase says:

    @AsianPerson3 , yeah really dipshit. It’s only a fair comparison if you used the same GPU, TIM, method of applying the TIM and the amount of it.

  24. AsianPerson3 says:

    @sinephase aww QQ baby QQ go have mommy change ur stinky diaper, bitch…

  25. sinephase says:

    @AsianPerson3 do you even know what QQ means? You’re wrong, get over it.
