Pros: Easy to install. Quick and easy. Would suggest getting Arctic adhesive to apply the heatsinks. Cools my card greatly. Old fan went out and card was running around 60c once installed ran around 15-16c.
Cons: The heatsinks don't stick that well so you would have to buy an adhesive.

These are Great Coolers

Pros: The coolers are very easy to install. Please Use Arctic Silver 5 or Gelid Extreme PAste. Also order the Enzotech heatsinks and apply where required for your board. The Fantastic part is the Prior to Install the Fan on my HIS Turbo Ice! IGHZ sounded like a Rocket ship taking off on 75% and I could only keep the temps down to 45 idle and over 60 on game in 75% Fan. With the Sythe idle is 37 and on game 51 on max setting. Keep n max setting. You cannot hear these coolers over your case Fans. I have two one on both Crossfire HIS 4870 cards. I have a HAF 922, so room is not a problem. they stick out about 1/2 inch more than board length.
Cons: Only one. The Fans should be should not have been Hard wired to the Fan control. The Fan control wires go in to the Fan themselves so you cannot Hot plug or change the fans without doing an external fan control if you change the fans. The fans are 100x100x12. I will try to install normal 100x100x25 to see if I get even more cooling effect.
Other Thoughts: Work great for their appearance. They do rock on the VGA GPU even when tightened down. A little scary, but they will not come loose. Alos not. You have no problem with crossfire or SLI. You wil have to get a flexible ribbon for three -way, due to the top of the cooling fins covering your second crossfire or SLI connection.

Scythe Musashi
Reviewed By: on 1/27/2010
Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: The two 100mm fans blow air over the whole card, and they're pretty quiet, even turned up all the way. The fans have built in controllers, and can connect to 3-pin motherboard connectors or to molex through the included adapter.
In my case, the included heatsinks seem to be stuck pretty well to the places all over the card I applied them. I'm not worried about them coming off.
Cons: It can shift since the connector pins are smaller than the holes on my 4870, which might affect how the cooler sits on the main chip.
Other Thoughts: Newegg doesn't call this "Musashi", which it's known as to most people, as far as I can tell.
The memory temp. sensor tends to be 20-30 degrees higher than the main GPU temp., even with heatsinks plastered all over the card.
Wider Compatibility This product is compatible for wide variety of graphic cards, for ATI Radeon 9000 to HD4800 class, and for nVIDIA GeForce FX5900 to 9600 class.

Air-Through Construction Airflow can be directed to the entire graphic card to ensure the complete cooling of the graphic card.
