    Pros & Cons

    Pros
    • Nothing else cools the back of your video card
    • Quiet fan
    • Instructions included
    Cons
    • Nothing secures it to the Video card
    • Will likely fall off if system is moved
    • Does not work on desktop systems

    Conclusion

    The Results? I'd say the unit worked as promised. The site states that they saw about a 3C drop in temps with the cooler in use, and from what my tests showed, it fell right into line with that thought.

    I think this cooler is a downright nifty idea. Nothing else out there really thinks about the back of your video card, so this guy is definitely a first in that field. With a well built, and relatively simple design, this thing does its job admirably, and thanks to the YS Tech fan, its reasonably quiet.

    Cooling Score: 4/5

    An admirable unit for the first of its kind, maybe they'll refine the design somewhat and put out a new one.
