I have three FX5600 nvidia cards. So far two of them have fans that
make
awfull noises. One from BFG tech and one from MSI. number three is
less
than a month old and its OK so far.
What is a good passive graphics card cooler for these cards? I found
one
by Zalhman but I'm not sure if it will fit correctly. The Zalman
ZM80A-HP, but I'm not sure which cards it will fit. Thanks!

There is a forum on the Zalman website at:
http://www.zalman.co.kr/english/board/board.htm

Hopefully someone from Zalman participates and can answer if no one else
knows.

ZM80A-HP and ZM80C-HP are compatible with GeForce FX 5600 or lower models
from nVidia without additional fan cooling such as FB165, FB123 w/
additional fan attachment for VGA chip cooling and ZM-OP1 for ZM80C-HP.

Bingo! I should have bid on the one I saw on ebay.

I don't know where these guys get their fans, but ever since my TNT2 days
I have had issues with GPU fans from nvidia.
