Does anyone know that the difference is? Why is the price different (higher for the older version)?

Thank you
 
and does anyone know what the REV 2 for the Accelero S1 imply? Is it that much better? Thanks
 
I believe the s2 has only two heatpipes as opposed to the s1's four. So you pay higher for the s1 because it provides better cooling. I bought mine for about $22 on newegg a while back. I think they currently have it for +$30-- grrr.
 
S2 isnt as good as the S1 as pointed out.
The S1 Rev 2 is an update to fit newer gfx cards.
Before the release of the Rev 2, the 8800GT wasnt listed as supported but it does fit the original S1 and the Rev 2, I'm using an 8800GT with the first S1.
There is no difference in cooling performance between the S1 and S1 Rev 2.
 
ok thanks a lot for the help guys. I just picked up a pair of the S1 Rev2's.

Just in case I need to fit them on the 8800GTX in the future :D
