GELID Icy Vision cools latest ATI and NVIDIA high-end graphics cards

GELID introduced Icy Vision, a new GPU cooler designed for most of ATI's and NVIDIA's latest high-end graphics cards, including the Radeon HD 5800 and GeForce GTX 400 series. The cooler features five heatpipes, 85 aluminium fins, a copper base and two 92mm fans to keep your VGA card chilled. The Icy Vision should be available within by the end of the month for $55 (46EUR), and features a five-year warranty.

Compatibility list: Compatible to ATI™ HD4850/ HD4870 / HD4890 / HD5850 / HD5870 & Nvidia™ 9800GT / 9800GTX / GTS250 / GTX260 / 275 / 280 / 285 / GTX465 / GTX470 & GTX480

The “ICY VISION” cooler contains 5 power heatpipes in a unique heatpipe constellation. The heatpipes are interlaced into 85 optimized high-quality Aluminium fins. Together with a flat stack fin soldered Copper base, they enable the most efficient heat transmission and dissipation from GPU core in its class.

Besides the heatsink, two 92mm UV-reactive fans with 11 blades in S-shape generate 20% more air flow than traditional fans. The fan contains a high-quality ball bearing to ensure a longer lifetime in high temperature environments.

The “ICY VISION” is both CrossFire and SLI compatible on a number of cards. Ram and Voltage Regulator Module cooling components as well as the high performance GC-2 thermal compound are included in the package.

“We have spent over 1 year developing our first VGA cooler. So much thought has gone into creating this product that we hope overclockers will be as excited as I am about the ICY Vision,“ said Gebhard Scherrer, co-founder and Sales Director of GELID Solutions Ltd.
