Noise level
After booting the system for the first time we were positively surprise by the coolers low noise level which we call subjectively silent. Even under partial load, the cooler is still subjectively silent and under full load it is subjectively audible.

Overclocking
With the Accelero GTX280 Extreme it was possible to overclockg the XFX GeForce GTX280s GPU up to 760 MHz and the memory to 1300 MHz. As a stabilitytest we used Furmark, 3DMark06 and 3DMarkVantage. All the benchmark were running in a loop for one hour.
