Antec VCool

Provider:  Antec
Manufacturer:  Antec





Conclusion

 

The Antec VCool runs for about $19.99 USD and is definitely worth a good look at.  The cooling results turned out better than expected, especially on a passively cooled video card, Antec's claim of 5 to 15 degrees celcius turned out to be true.  To make things better, even on the highest speed setting (3500 RPM) the VCool is quiet, and much quieter than having an actively cooled video card which would boost similar results depending on the setup.  On the lowest setting the VCool is virtually dead silent.

 

Let's not stop there though, not only does this cooler perform well it also looks good to with its transparent blue finish and included blue LED lights, it will liven up your system.  So on a final note we can truly say there is nothing really bad to say about this cooler.  It is particularly great to those with passively cooled video cards that want to run them cooler with little noise but aren't able or wanting to go the water-cooled route.  We recommend this product.
