HIS IceQ 3 Cooling Technology
HIS IceQ 3 is the 3rd generation of IceQ cooling technology which is endorsed by worldwide media. HIS IceQ 3 innovative design doubles the strength to its predecessor. It ensures lower operating environment for GPU and memory, extends headroom for overclocking and provides longer service life. HIS IceQ 3 can cool down the core temperature dramatically; lower than original cooler. Heat transfers rapidly out of GPU and reduces temperature faster. Also it is sensitive to ultra violate light with special UV effect.

Well I have to admit if you want to the best AGP card on the market? The HIS HD 3850 ICEQ3 TurboX AGP is the way to go, here's my card which I recieved last Saturday :)

As you can see they are very different from each other :cool:
The PCB of this HIS is a little narrower and it's Capacitors are all sealed as well, it also seems it's VRM's are from the brand Delta, these come from Zierikzee, Soulth Holland, a short 40KM drive south from my home!
This HIS HD 3850 ICEQ3 TurboX AGP also has a nick name which many also call itas the HD 3870 AGP, this is because it matches HD 3870 PCI-E performance in almost every game out there.
So here it is in my setup from 2004 and it's still rock'n too :)

I use this system to play games like CoD4 MW, Crysis, UT GOTYE 1999, Descent 3, DXX-Rebirth, C&C 3 series, RA3 series and some others, it supports all 3 different API's 3dfx Glide, SGI OpenGL and Microsoft Direct3D.
It also works fine in Vista Business x64 + SP2 without any issues, however I am using WinXP Pro + SP3 on that setup, better driver support for the Voodoo5 and since most games are DX9 anyways or OpenGL XP + SP3 is just fine, though I am quate sure Win7 should work, since it's more like a Win Vista workaround heh.

One of the best solution for AGP Ports, plays much to date games in up to 25-60 FPS.
