turbo module or a YL for my Accerlero S1

I need a little air blowing over my Accerleo...should I get the turbo module from AC or just get a Yate Loon and zip tie it on?

There is a slim(12mm) version of the popular Scythe Slip Stream 120mm fan series. I'd get one of those if available. A fan over the turbo module at any rate.

I was able to take a YL I already had and modify it for a free experiment. I am happy with the results

It's a great cooler, with a wiff of air it can cool almost anything.

Too bad the 800RPM version doesn't make any airflow at all (tried it, it was worse than the original noisy 8cm fan on Zotac GTS250 Eco.

I tried a Turbo module and a 650 rpm 12 cm Fander and a 900 rpm 9 cm Fander on my S1. At the same noise level (had to slow down the Turbo significantly), the ordinary fan (whichever) was a little, but visibly better. Go for the fan. The card is OCed 4770.

Of course the S1 can easily cool it with no fan at all, but since I OC the card and tend to get artifacts w/ proper cooling, I decided to just use the fan. It's effectively silent in my setup anyway. With no OC the card is sweet with just the S1.
