From the appearance point of view, the overclocked Triple Caribbean with dimensions of 134(L)x127(W)x47(H)mm looks like a small CPU radiator, because the main body of the radiator is made of aluminum. Design, the entire radiator only weighs 284g. The excellent structural design uses aluminum fins, which is not inferior to copper in terms of heat dissipation performance, but its light weight can reduce the burden on the graphics card.

The overclocking triple Caribbean radiator mainly consists of 4 heat pipes, a heat dissipation base and a heat dissipation Composed of fins, the 4-heat pipe design is the standard for today's mid-to-high-end graphics card radiators. We can see that the radiator's cooling fins have a large ventilation area, and its actual heat dissipation performance is exciting.

Overclocking III Caribbean uses 55 cooling fins + 4 heat pipes. The heat pipes are closely combined with the heat sink through the Fin process, and the entire radiator is nickel plated. , can effectively improve the antioxidant capacity. The front design of the Caribbean Sea has two grooves. If you are a fan of overclocking triple radiators, you will definitely know the function of this groove design. It is only a groove designed for installing fans! The fan is equipped with a shock-absorbing rubber pad, making it easier and more convenient for users to assemble.

The cooling base area of ??the Caribbean Sea is larger. Large, it still uses Overclocking Three's original HDT patented technology. The polished heat pipe is in direct contact with the surface of the GPU. The end of the heat pipe is in direct contact with the heat source, which is beneficial to reducing thermal resistance. The heat is instantly transferred from one end of the heat pipe to the other end, truly achieving high efficiency. Remarkable heat dissipation effect. Caribbean's heat dissipation base is designed with 43, 51 and 53 multi-hole positions, basically supporting all mainstream graphics card products on the market.

Overclocking 3 has always been very rich in radiator accessories, and the accessories of this Caribbean radiator are also very complete, including long and short screws for different graphics cards, Insulating gaskets, 16 memory heat sinks, shock-absorbing foot pads and a small amount of silicone grease are included in the accessories. Although the fan is not included in the accessories, the choice of the fan is left to the user according to their own needs and the development of the graphics card. You can choose a fan based on the heat, but the official recommendation is to use the overclocking 3 12025 or F122 series fans.

Furmark option settings
We use FurMark V1.5 to test the graphics card at full load, and set the high resolution of 1920x1200 to achieve a high load effect on the graphics card , run the full load test for 15 minutes.
"Actual test of the hottest single card under full load
Performance
During the test, we used RivaTuner 2.23 to read the GPU temperature. After the first 15 minutes, The standby temperature of the Sapphire Radeon 4870 Toxic equipped with a Caribbean radiator is 37.5 degrees. After a 15-minute full load test with Furmark, the highest temperature is 50.5 degrees. When we stop the full load test and wait for a few seconds, the standby temperature immediately drops to 37.5 degrees.

Assembled with Caribbean radiator The full load temperature of the 4870 graphics card is only 50 degrees. Such excellent performance has fully proved that the overclocking three radiator is worth the money; we might as well pay attention to the working frequency of this Sapphire Radeon 4870 Toxic, which is as high as 780/4000MHz. This means that this is an overclocked version of the graphics card product. The Caribbean radiator can still handle the hottest single card in the world with ease, which is simply surprising.
Overclocking 3 This radiator has excellent workmanship and outstanding performance. The retail price is only 149 yuan. If we assemble the F122 series fan, the cost can be well controlled within 200 yuan. The Caribbean Sea becomes The best value for money graphics card cooler is undeniable.
