Any recommendations?

Any recommendations? Only one choice... Zalman's heatpipe coolers. Thermaltake has one too, but there's a small fan on it so it doesn't really count. Besides, it's a cheap, crappy sleeve bearing fan too which will likely start to squeal pretty quickly considering how hot that cooler will get (hot environments makes the oil in the fan evaporate faster). |

I have the Abit Siluro Geforce4 ti4200 OTES 8X. The fan is quite noisy. It
didn't bother me at first but I'm upgrading my system and modding the case a little bit so as long as I'm in the guts of the system I figured why not silence the VGA card as well. I'll check out the Zalman unit. I notice that the 80A is a sharp looking gold anodized color, (matching my GoldenOrb) and the 80C is a dark silver? color. Is one better than the other? What's the dif between the two? Thanks much, Rich "Kevin Seal" wrote in message ... In message XOcob.45533$mZ5.272662@attbi_s54, Rich writes Any recommendations?

Yes it does but you'll notice that a geforce card higher than a geforce256
requires the use of a fan (Zalman FB165) with it. Heat sink http://www.zalman.co.kr/english/product/cnpsvga2.htm and fan http://www.zalman.co.kr/english/product/cnpsvga3.htm "jeffc" wrote in message ...

And it doesn't. At least not for cards that are no longer being used.
