Inno3D iChiLL 9800 GTX Accelero Xtreme review

Early last month Nvidia released the GeForce 9800 GTX which today stands as the fastest single GPU graphics card money can buy. However, after almost sixty days of its release and with an eventual appearance of next-generation cards from both ATI and Nvidia, few manufacturers seem to be making pronounced efforts on modifying or improving the original Nvidia reference design.

That is until we received the iChiLL 9800 GTX Accelero Xtreme from Inno3D, which features a mammoth heatsink that is cooled by no less than three fans.

Those of you more educated in the arts of PC cooling have probably recognized by the name of this product that Inno has employed the new Arctic Cooling Accelero Xtreme 9800 cooler. This cooler alone retails for ~$55 which is only good news for prospective buyers of this graphics card since it's retailing on par with other standard-equipped products at just $315.

Just finding a retailer or e-tailer in the USA that handles the Inno3D brand let alone this particular card is a challenge.

The 9800 GX2 beats this though, right?

Did you look at all the benchmark graphs which included the 9800 GX2?
