Unmatched Cooling Performance

It features the F12 (a 120 mm PWM fan), a powerful heat exchanger, and the MX-4 thermal compound to transfer heat efficiently away from the GPU – with 200% cooling performance of the stock cooler.

Cooling Performance on AMD Radeon HD 7970:

Accelero Hybrid 7970 (at 2,000 RPM)

Ambient temperature: 25oC
 

Enhanced RAM and VR Cooling

It also comes with an Active Cooling Unit and thermal adhesive specifically designed to enhance the cooling of RAM and VR. Its aerodynamic design further maximizes the airflow efficiency on all surrounding components.

RAM and VR Cooling Performance with Thermal Adhesive:

Thermal Adhesive (included)
 0.86oC/W

Ambient temperature: 25oC
Tested with Accelero L2 PRO at 2,000 RPM
 

Virtually-Silent

The PWM fans are both controlled by the graphics card and work according to the GPU load which minimizes the noise level. The PWM setting can be modified according to the different performance and noise priorities. Click here to see how these PWM settings work.

Noise Level on AMD Radeon HD 7970:

Guru3D : Accelero Hybrid 7970

I was really impressed by the GPU temperature being below 50 Degrees C under full load, heck, close to 40 Degrees C even.

OverClockersClub : Accelero Hybrid 7970

Another very important thing to remember is the noise factor -? the Hybrid ran quietly the whole time whereas the stock cooler was plenty loud on automatic.(Like a vacuum cleaner!)

The fans operated very quietly and the lowered temperatures allowed for a safer experience, especially when overclocking!

Confident with the cooling headroom of the Hybrid, I pushed the overclock to the edge of stability at a blistering 1250 MHz core, 1950 MHz memory! However, temperatures did not show an increase between the tested and maximum overclocks.(71 degrees with stock coolers and 64 degrees with Hybrid).

3D News : Accelero Xtreme 7970

The temperature of the GPU with Accelero Xtreme 7970 is surely the big winner (GPU, 69C).

Even at the highest speeds of the fans is quiet enough, no more than 45 dBA.

Most importantly, the cooler is completely inaudible. Impressive, is it not?

Kitguru : Accelero Hybrid

When compared directly against the reference cooler, the Accelero Hybrid drops load temperatures by a whopping 30c-33c. In real world terms, the Accelero Hybrid gaming load temperature is close to the idle temperature of the reference cooler. This is about as good as you could expect from any 'all in one' cooling solution.

Hardwareluxx : Accelero Hybrid

Up to 31 oC better than the reference coolers, the temperature showed a high overclocking potential. It is also compatible with all high-end cards with easy installation.
