lowboy Posted December 19, 2005 Posted December 19, 2005 The acetel fits more GFX cards and is lighter and cheaper. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
red930 Posted December 19, 2005 Posted December 19, 2005 Personally I'm using the plastic top, but lately I've been thinking that having the brass might help cut a degeee or so off of temps since I have a lot of air moving around in my case. Just a thought. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SycoraX Posted December 19, 2005 Posted December 19, 2005 I like my Acetal. Keeps my 7800GT @ 485/1.13 at a cool 31-33C idle. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
red930 Posted December 19, 2005 Posted December 19, 2005 thats why i am looking for opinions Honestly I'd pay the extra for the brass now, I think it'd help a little. Might not be noticeable, but you never know. I'm not gonna switch now since its all together, but if you have fans already blowing air across that area then I tihnk there would be some benefits.
