I have just received the Xigmatek Battleaxe from you.

Here are some photos of the Xigmatek Battle Axe that I purchased from Ling Loong this week:

1. Xigmatek Battle Axe box


2. Xigmatek Battle Axe cooler by itself


I will be replacing my Zotac Geforce 8800GT cooler with this.

I believe that this will be able to cool the card better than the Zalman Cu900 Fatality version.

Red Scorpion user, reporting in......

all i can say, its the best bang of the buck cooler i ever purchased...

the performance is pretty decent...

My proc temp are around 44-46 when i put the PC inside my small hostel room(single room, but size like a storage room) but put in an aircond room, the temp reduced to 35-38 degree...love this cooler hehe

can the battle axe support HD4890?? reference board

Yup can support HD4890 with new "leg" included But have to careful not to void the new card warranty upon applying the Battle AXE

Between here is my RS in Armor+ MX Silver Will be uploading new pics for XIGMATEK PSU Soon

how is the performance?? better den accelero twin turbo??

For ATI HD4770, anybody tried yet? Due to this card is still new in market, I'll consult with XIGMATEK supplier weather can fit or not. But FYI this cooler can fit any new card in market from Nvidia 7000, 8000, 9000 series and GTX200 plus ATI HD3000 and HD4000 series as HD4890, HD4870 and HD4850 tested positive

Early this morning, I managed to replace the GPU cooler for my old Zotac Geforce 8800GT.

The old Zalman Fatality GPU Cooler (Reserved)

1. The GPU cooler itself


2. Before replacing the GPU cooler


The entire ordeal took around 45 mins to an hour. This is because the instructions were quite small (with multiple languages). It was quite intuitive for me as I have done this every now and then.

1. Xigmatek Battle Axe with my Zotac Geforce 8800GT (overview shoot)


2. Xigmatek Battle Axe with my Zotac Geforce 8800GT (side shoot)


3. Xigmatek Battle Axe with my Zotac Geforce 8800GT in my old PC

*As you can see, it takes around 2.5 slots or more.

The difference of the idle temperature between the Zalman cooler and Xigmatek cooler was around 6-8c (with both running at full speed).

Xigmatek cooler @ full speed is a lot quieter than Zalman cooler @ full speed.

Previously with Zalman cooler, it was around =56-60c

Now with Xigmatek cooler = 50-52c

Please not that this was tested in a room without air conditioning, will update results when the aircon is switch on later.

I would not be able to test the load temperature as my old PC has no games in it at all.

Pros:
1. Silent (even at fullspeed)
2. Fans can be replaced if needed be.
3. Quite easy to fit in
4. Wide compatibility
5. Good availability

Cons:
1. Takes up more than 2 slots
2. Instructions not as clear as the Zalman counterpart

I would recommend this to anyone who are quite annoyed with the heat and noise generated from their stock coolers.
