SystemLogic has posted a review on the HighSpeedPC AGP AirLift



Video card cooling hasn´t done anything that remarkable lately. Since people started attaching socket CPUs to their video cards, we´ve only seen a handful of notable video card coolers. The Blue Orb, The Copper sink, and a couple other notable additions to the category, but they all do the same thing. They cool the CPU of the card, which, in a normal tower is on the bottom of the card. This is a reasonably effective method of cooling the card, as the CPU/GPU on it is the item generating most of the heat on it, but the heat sink is on the bottom of the card, facing down. Which means, the heat that rises (like all high school science graduates know, heat rises) has nothing to cool it!

Recently when talking with the boss at the site here, he mentioned High Speed PC, had some nifty stuff. So during my looking I came across their AGP Airlift. I had never seen this before, or anything even similar to it. This struck me as odd, as I have seen pretty much every cooler that has been around. It turned out the item was a really new addition for them, which is why I hadn´t seen it before. So I decided to acquire one for testing.
