I just bought this cooler and had it installed on my X1650 XT. My main goal was to achive a quieter computer. As this is fanless it suited my criteria very well :)
So i replaced my stock fan which sported a small relativly loud fan, annoying high pitch noise at load. And these were my results.

Stock:
Idle: 52 C
Load: 71 C
Delta: 19 C

Accelero S2:
Idle: 45 C
Load: 57 C
Delta: 12 C

I have to say im very impressed by this cooler. I have a front 120mm that "aims" towards the Accelero as only fan for it (also a 120 exhaust that shouldn't do anything with GPU temp). Seeing as you can mount an 120mm on the Accelero with some cable ties for extreme cooling i give this cooler:

5/5

Only thing to add is; i wish i had a bigger gfx card so i could try out the Accelero S1rev2 aswell :)

Nice!
They are rather large though, but expected for passive cooling. From recent reviews and comparisons I've read they're rather better than the over and under Thermalright (or was it thermaltake) one, which was also a lot bigger :)

Good to see it's working well anyway :D

Also have very positive experience with the accelero. Had it mounted on an old ATI radeon x850xt.
