HardwareCanucks: Accelero S1 Rev.2 with Turbo Module
Arctic Cooling S1 Rev.2 was really able to shine and lowered load temperatures by a stunning39 and 44 degrees respectively. With this kind of cooling performance it is a real shame that you have to void your warranty to install any aftermarket cooler. That being said, if you are looking for a new heatsink for your HD4850, we highly recommend you take a look at the S1 Rev.2 since it offers an amazing value for your money.

Cool PC: Accelero S1 Rev.2/ Accelero S2

  03 / 2008
HardOCP.com: Accelero S1 Rev.2
An Arctic Cooling Accelero S1 Rev. 2 with good airflow represents what can easily be called one of the best values in today¢G¾¦s high-end aftermarket GPU coolers. While it does not provide the absolute best cooling in the market, it surely represents a very good GPU cooler. You would be remiss if you did not consider this product on an enthusiast build of any budget.

Au-Ja: Accelero S1
Arctic Cooling liefert mit dem Accelero S1 einen hervorragenden Grafikkarten-Kühler ab, [...] der zudem sehr preiswert ist. [...] Besonders beeindruckt waren wir vom passiven Betrieb, bei dem der Accelero S1 den aktiven Referenzkühler unserer Gainward Bliss 8800GT PCX problemlos in den Schatten stellte.
 
  03 / 2008
MAX-IT Malaysia: Accelero S1 Rev.2
For a passive solution, there's nothing better than the Accelero S1; adding the fans made it even better, with just a slight increase in noise. The only concern we have is that reversing the airflow of the casing's fans means that there will be no cool air flowing over the hard disks. Other than that, the Accelero S1 gets both thumbs up from us.
 
  03 / 2008
Hardware Logic: Accelero S1 Rev.2
Incredible thermal performance coupled with dead silent operation makes it easy to recommend the Accelero S1 Rev 2. Arctic Cooling has a winning design on their hand, one that supports a wide range of videocards. We didn't think it was possible to offer such a performance combination at this high level, but we find ourselves now drinking the Swiss company's Kool-Aid.

Modnews.ru: Accelero S1 Rev.2
As you can see, the results impressive. Of course, they received in a spacious, ventilated casing, so the test conditions were close to ideal. But in any case, the results shown radiator Arctic Cooling in passive mode, it is better than the staffing active cooling system. The noise, as you know it, with a zero, that is not cooling system produces no sound.

OCWorkBench: Accelero S2
In conclusion, the card is superb in 3D performance. It is noiseless and it is best for gaming use.

Gameswelt: Accelero S1
Mit dem Accelero S1 zeigt Artic Cooling seine Zähne und zwingt die namhafte Zalman-Konkurrenz zu Boden. Die Leistung in Kombination mit einer geringen Geräuschentwicklung spricht eindeutig für den Accelero S1, hinzu kommt ein ungeschlagenes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis.

VGames: Accelero S1 Rev.2
Overall, this cooling solution is great. It's a high-quality product, very easy to assemble, and fits any pocket. You just can't ask for more, it competes with the currently nominated "best graphic card cooler" - the Thermalright HR-03GT, and costs 3 times less!
 
  02 / 2008
Xbit Lab: Accelero S1 Rev.2
The leader of our today¢G¾¦s test session is evidently Accelero S1 with a Turbo Module. This very efficient and quiet cooler also turned out the cheapest of all cooling systems discussed today. As for the drawbacks, we should remember that it blocks two mainboard slots next top the graphics card. Besides, the hot air is only partially ousted from the system case, while the reference coolers on Radeon HD 3870 and GeForce 8800 GTS send almost all of the hot air outside.
 
  01 / 2008
PCSPACE: Accelero S1 Rev.2
We was really surprised with new Accelero S1 Rev. 2 cooling performance, even with new GeForce 8800GTS. With additional Turbo Module is this cooler unbeatable and when we look at his price, we must give him an TOP Product award. Good work.

Computerbase.de: Accelero S1
Arctic-Coolings Accelero S1 hat sich in Verbindung mit dem optionalen Turbo-Modul als klarer Leistungssieger aus unserem ungleichen Duell heraus kristallisieren können. Wer seine Hochleistungsgrafikkarte allerdings gut und vor allem sehr leise gekühlt wissen will, dabei nicht so tief in die Tasche greifen möchte, [...] der ist mit dem Accelero S1 für die aktuelle Beschleunigergeneration respektive dem S2 für etwas ältere Modelle bestens beraten.
 
  09 / 2007
Silenthardware.de: Accelero S1
Arctic Cooling zeigt mit dem Accelero S1 eindrucksvoll, dass absolute Topkühler nicht zwangsweise viel kosten müssen. Ohne wirkliche Schwächen präsentierte sich der Accelero S1 von der besten Seite und stürmte förmlich zum Sieg und stellt ab sofort die neue Referenz unter den Grafikkartenkühlern dar.
 
  08 / 2007
HT4U.net: Accelero S1
After having shown an impressive performance, there's not much we can say, but that Accelero S1 Rev. 2 does have an enourmous capacity, with and without the Turbo Module. Mounting the cooler is just as easy, that everyone should be able to complete it within 10 Minutes, so the only thing we could do is to award Arctic Cooling with our only award - the Editor's Choice.

crazy-mods.de: Accelero S2
Legt man auf ein passives System wert, erreicht man mit dem reinen Accelero S2 schon gute Werte. Die beste Leistungsentfaltung erreicht man jedoch mit dem Turbo-Modul. Die damit erreichten Temperaturwerte sind wirklich erstaunlich.

4Gamer.net: Accelero S1 / Accelero S2 + Turbo Module
Incredible cooling performance. 12C cooler than ASUS's fan-less solution and 20C cooler than Radeon HD 2600 XT GDDR4's reference cooler. Turbo Module is very useful and silent.

Gaming Devils: Accelero S2 + Turbo Module
The difference here is fairly obvious and somewhat unexpected. The 32 degree difference experienced during the most stressful parts of the benchmark. I would highly recommend this aftermarket cooler.

Tortugahard: Accelero S2 + Turbo Module
Its performance is highly superior compared with that of the cooler stock, in spite of the fact that the latter posseses a noisy fan. The Accelero S2, making it an excellent choice even if we decided to change the VGA. The addition of the Turbo Model to the Accelero S2 pairs exceptionally well, emphasizing the previous benefits without the need to sacrifice what all the other fans generally do: the noise.
 
  08 / 2007
DriverHeaven.net: Accelero S1 + Turbo Module
The Arctic Cooling Accelero S1 is a monster of a cooler and it does deliver excellent cooling performance. Installation of the S1 was very easy, requiring little more than the attachment of 4 screws and the pre applied thermal paste is of very high quality. The ability to buy a small fan module is a real benefit and credit goes to Arctic Cooling for keeping the noise levels low. The icing o­n the cake is that the Accelero S1 is priced very competitively. The ability to buy a small fan module is a real benefit and credit goes to Arctic Cooling for keeping the noise levels low.

Overclock Paradise: Accelero S1 + Turbo Module
The performance of S1+Turbo Module is really amazing. Each test results are leading far away. The difference between stock cooler and S1+Turbo is more than 20C. Inside the whole test, S1+Turbo Module temperature never exist 40C. For the overall performance is really not bad. Also, the S1 + Turbo Module has very less noise and impressive. It seems that the big heat fins and low rotation fan design will be the best cooling solution for high heat dissipation graphic card.

UMLan: Turbo Module
I have reviewed the Accelero S1 in the past and was very surprised by the results. With the Turbo Module this mod becomes an active cooling of the GPU. I do believe that the possibilities are very reasonable as far as overclocking goes.

Hardwarecrew: Accelero S2
Mal wieder typisch für Arctic Cooling - kann man doch für knapp über 10 Euro einen sehr guten Kühler kaufen.[...] Die Kühlleistung ist mehr als überzeugend - vielleicht sollte gar der eingesessene Passiv-Gegner mal einen Blick riskieren. [...] Alles in allem verdient der Arctic Cooling Accelero S1/2 einschließlich dem Turbo Module mit Empfehlung unseren Preis-/Leistungs-Award.

Elite Bastards: Accelero S2
It's silent running, it offers superior cooling performance to the reference cooler in our particular case. The Accelero S2 is simply superb in both design and performance.

XtremeComputing: Accelero S1 + Turbo Module
This cooler is definitely not something to be trifled with. It destroyed anything that I could compare it against, even watercooling. I would recommend the S1 without a moment¡¦s hesitation.
 
  07 / 2007
HardwareCanucks: Accelero S2 + Turbo Module
Accelero S2 simply blows the competition out of the water when using the heatsink without a fan attached. It is truly amazing to see a passive heatsink outstrip a stock active cooler. Accelero S2 promises to deliver superior passive cooling performance.

UNLiMiTPC.com: Accelero S1 + Turbo Module
Although Turbo Module speed fan is 1500rpm, not hight speed, it could be absolutely no noice in case. We found that's good performance and noiceless.It 's stable temperature at 51c with full load.

DragonSteelMods: Turbo Module
Turbo Module does work. I do have to mention that the Turbo Module is virtually silent, I couldn't hear it at all.
 
  07 / 2007
Technic3D: Turbo Module
Der Accelero bietet eine sehr anständige Kühlleistung zu einem guten Preis, welche nun durch das zugehörige Turbo Module nochmals deutlich verbessert wird. Dennoch, die Kombination aus einem Accelero S Kühler und dem Turbo Module ist durchaus als "Dreamteam" zu bezeichnen.
 
  06 / 2007
Bjorn3D: Accelero S2
Accelero S2¡¦s performance really surprised me. In addition to the great performance. The unit would also be a great choice for those who wish to build a quieter system yet do not wish to sacrifice the performance by going with an entry level card.
 
  06 / 2007
PC-Attitude: Accelero S1 + Turbo Module
The Accelero S1 is finally a very good product, a cooling solution for people looking for silence, high performance and good price.

Red & Blackness: Turbo Module
They are easy to install and provide good performance with quiet operations. The turbo module and the cooler combination deserve serious consideration for your next computer build.

Svět hardware: Accelero S2
The thermal performance of Arctic Cooling Accelero S1 and S2 speaks for itself, it is simply outstanding. The coolers are easy to install, there are heatsinks for BGA memory modules included.
 
  06 / 2007
Svět hardware: Turbo Module
AC Turbo Module shows its potential in combination with more powerful graphics cards and Accelero S1. 15¢FXC temperature drop is a considerable performance and when you add also better memory modules and PWM area cooling.
 
  05 / 2007
X-bit labs: Accelero S2
Arctic Cooling solutions proved up to the mark and performed perfect according to their positioning and range of supported graphics cards. They are truly the best graphics card coolers out there.
 
  05 / 2007
Overclock3D.Net: Accelero S2
The Arctic Cooling Accelero S2 is an impressive cooler. We saw temperature drops of around 10¢FXC o­n the stock solution. The fact that it is totally silent means that you don't have to worry about noise at all which is not o­nly impressive but also very reassuring. Other than that it's a no-brainer - I'm finding it hard to say why you shouldn't get o­ne for your card.
 
  04 / 2007
Area3d: Accelero S1
Beide Kühler können auf der ganzen Linie überzeugen. So ist der S1 derzeit wohl mit Abstand der beste passive Grafikkartenkühler auf dem Markt. Er punktet mit einmaliger Kühlleistung, einer erstklassigen Verarbeitung und einem für derartige Produkte niedrigen Preis. Zum X2 kann man eigentlich nicht mehr viel sagen. Er hat sich vielfach bewährt und auch unser Test bestätigt ihm eine Spitzenleistung. Leise, stark und günstig. Ein gutes Beispiel wie ein guter Kühler zu sein hat. Es wäre vermessen nicht beide Kühler mit Gold zu belohnen.
 
  04 / 2007
Fudzilla: Accelero S2
We are convinced, it does the job well and it doesn¡¦t cost you a lot. We can easily recommend it to all who like their graphics cards served cool and silent. It fits in most cases and this should not be a problem either. It is quiet, cheap and it does the job better than any reference o­ne, what more could you ask from your cooler.
 
  04 / 2007
NexoPC: Accelero S2
We had tested a passive solution for our GPU and obtained better results than with a fan cooler. o­nce again Arctic Cooling didn¡¬t defraud us, you can really see that people of AC knows what we need and how to achive it. The Accelero S2 fulfill what it promised and so we can have a video card working with 0dB, that¡¬s right, no noise... something really wonderful.

SilentModding: Accelero S2
Und wieder einmal hat Hersteller ARCTIC COOLING gezeigt, dass ein leistungsstarker Kühler nicht teuer sein muß. In unserem Test erreichte der "Accelero S2" sowohl im "Leerlauf", als auch unter "Vollast" unglaublich niedrige Temperaturen. Bei einem Preis von unter 20 Euro sollte jeder "Silent-Verliebte" sofort zuschlagen. Der Accelero S2 von ARCTIC COOLING erhält von uns mit Leichtigkeit unseren Gold-Award.

Der Arctic Cooling Accelero S2 zeigt, dass eine effektive Kühlung von Mittelklasse-Grafikkarten auch ohne Geräuschentwicklung möglich ist. Mit den erreichten Werten distanziert er den aktiven Standardkühler deutlich. Auch die Montage ist einfach zu bewerkstelligen. Wie gewohnt sind Qualität und Verarbeitung nicht zu beanstanden. Hinzu kommt ein mehr als attraktiver Preis von rund 22¢Gá und das geringe Gewicht. Ingesamt erhält der Accelero S2 die uneingeschränkte Kaufempfehlung der Technic3D Redaktion und den Gold Award.

HardwareZone: Accelero S2
During peak loads however, that reading went up to 50, a very impressive number when compared against the temperatures recorded with the card's default passive cooler, which shot up to a scalding 80 degrees Celsius at full load. It is a decently priced and excellent passive cooler that performs to the high standards that we have come to expect from Arctic Cooling.

RexWare: Accelero S2
Arctic Cooling proposes a very interesting cooling system for VGA cards by many points : it's fully quiet, effective, and compatible with a very great number of graphic cards (oldest and newest) and has a reduced price of 18¢Gá.

TweakTown: Accelero S2
The heatsink is excellent quality and super quiet (silent in fact), performance is great
 
  03 / 2007
hardwaretech: Accelero S2
Testing clearly showed that Arctic Cooling Accelero S2 is excellent product. In my view, he almost does not have deficiencies. If quiet cooling system is necessary to you, then Accelero S2 - this your selection. At the given moment with the use of the highly resourceful fans Accelero S2 it does not have equal. Even where more road Zalman VF900 CU it remains behind.

OverClockZone: Accelero S2
Accelero S2 is the new model of Accelero serie provides true passive cooling solution for graphics card. Its heat dissipating performance is significantly better than the stock fan from mainstream graphics card and of course silent.
