The 8800GT sonic utilizes a very simple and radically different cooler from the stock of NVIDIA cooler and isn’t bad for it. Though not as attractive, a simple circular heatsink and a large embedded fan do get the job done better. The heatsink extends to strips that run over the memory chips, passively cooling them. Temperatures are around 15 degrees less than the stock cooler, meaning Palit has really got the Sonic’s thermals spot on! The 8800GT Sonic proved to be pleasure to test. It comes close to embarrassing its older siblings at half a price, even less. Priced at 15k, this is an impressive offering that delivers performance with cool head. Overall it gets 4 out of 5 rating points.
