Installation

The installation of the Evercool Turbo2 is fairly easy. All you have to do is look up where you have to screw in the mounting posts in the manual.



Next you put in the mounting posts, put your card on them with a rubber washer in between. Rubber washer on the other side and screw down the spring nuts.

Do not screw down the spring nuts too tight. If you do that the mounting posts will screw out when removing the cooler. It is sufficient if the spring is fully compressed and the rubber is slightly pressed together.



One problem I had was that on my X1800XL the manual's "D" position mounting holes did not line up with my video card. After contacting Evercool they said that some ATI X1000 Series video cards use non-standard holes and that in such a case the two "C" mounting holes should be used.


A disadvantage of the Evercool Turbo 2 is that it does not directly cool the memory chips. However, there is a good deal of airflow going over the memory chips from the fan.
