I replace my quadro 4000 stock heatsink with this one, quadro stock fan is crappy, its inefficient and very loud. I did some test on the temp for this cooler, here they are.
I've had heating issues with my aging PowerColor Radeon HD 6850, especially through the summer days. On one of the cooler days through the recent heatwave (ambient of 27-30C), it would idle anywhere from 47 to 51C that I recorded. Under load, running FurMark's burn-in test, temps would shoot up to the 90s within forty seconds, and I would usually abort the run because the temperatures didn't seem to plateau. One time I let it run for exactly 2 minutes, and the temp was 102C. (I highly do not recommend doing that.) It even got up to similar levels running CineBench's OpenGL benchmark.
I was kind of weary to try this after reading some reviews on the original Icy Vision, but it was a good price and got it anyway. Dropped my idle temps from mid 50*c to low-mid 40*c and temps during BF3 from low-mid 80*c to mid 60*c. Very happy with the performance!

paired some swiftech copper heatsinks for the vrm cooling with this on a xfx 6970 rev.2 and it's perfect. idle temp has dropped from 48c to 33, OCx935mhz core 1.23v stock mem, load temps were 75-80c with the stock cooler hoovering away at 100db now load temps sit no higher than 52c. you can just barely hear these fans. just have to make sure you really clean off your memory and vrms for the thermal tape to work properly.

This is a great cooler and I recommend it to anyone who is looking for a better cooling solution without going water cooled. This has dropped the idle temperatures on my xfx HD6870 by 10 degrees and lowered my gaming temperatures by 20 degrees!!! I used to get temperatures in the low 70s while gaming for long periods of time and now I get a max temperature of 54 while gaming non stop for 4 hours. This cooler has also allowed me to overclock my gpu MUCH higher I am currently running my gpu at 980 core clock with 1100 memory clock!!!!! This overclock gave me a substantial boost in performance and my temperatures are still lower.

This is a great, easy to install cooler that I'm using to cool on a pair of 5850's in the same system (final product takes up almost 3 slots it just barely fits). With the stock cooler they're very loud on load and the temperature reaches 85-90C. With the Icy Vision, they're in the low 80's with the fan turned down to almost inaudible levels!
It's a great cooler. Two relatively big fans. I set them to 23%/700rpm to cool my stock-speed powercolor 6850. Stays below 70C on furmark, without ramping up speed/noise.
