We would like to thank the following companies for supplying and supporting us with our test system hardware and equipment: Intel, ASRock, Kingston, Mittoni, Noctua and Corsair.

The main thing we want to see is how it compares to the reference GTX 570 when it comes to performance, but more importantly we want to know what's going on with the cooler and if it's actually something that manages to stand out from the pack.

Let's get started!
