Pros: Cools extremely well! My 9800gtx++ is running 10-15 degrees cooler. Idle temps range from 36 (single monitor) to 44 degrees (dual monitor) Playing crysis for 30 minutes gets max temps of 55-56. With the stock cooler I was lucky if temps stayed under 55 idle and about 70 under load.
Cons: Is cheaply made, but what do you expect for less than $25. The memory heatsinks do not stick well (even after cleaning the memory)
Other Thoughts: I recommend spending a couple more $ on thermal tape just to be sure the memory heatsinks stick for good. This cooler will probably do ok in poorly ventilated cases, but like someone else said, this cooler will do best in well ventilated cases. I didn't have any problems installing the cooler on my card and I did not have to bend or cut anything to make it work. However, it can be tricky to line up the screws with the holes and takes some maneuvering to get right.

Quiet

Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: more than 1 year
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Perfectly silent. Upgradable with a fan if I so choose.
Cons: Came a little close to the edge of the computer case, but still fit fine. Also, make sure you have plenty of airflow in your case, or even this over sized heatsink won't help
Other Thoughts: Sis-in-Law plays WoW on a rig I built her. The onboard GPU fan started making an awful sound, so rather than buy another fan that could develop the same problem, figured I'd just go the silent route. Has worked fine

Works, but ugly

This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Keeps the GPU cooler than my stock fan, and of course very quiet.
Cons: Seems flimsy, mounting could be a bit better, but works well. orry I had to minus 1 egg for my other thoughts...
Other Thoughts: This cooler is very nice, but bulky and ugly as a two-headed demon child. Sticks out way past any other card I have in the case. If you are a person who has their case closed all the time, it won't bother you, but I leave my side panel open and it just looks hideous.
