Amazing Cooler 11/02/2012
This review is from: ZALMAN VF3000A EBR Bearing VGA Cooler
Pros:
Solid construction and excellent heat dissipation. My overclocked 5870 is rocking at 1025mhz core and 1250mhz memory clock at 1.275V with no issue. Idle temp is 39oC with ambient at 72oC and full load temp is topping at 62oC. This is with the fan at 50% speed!
Cons:
Had to get better thermal paste and needed to use thermal tape for the memory heat sinks. the stuff this cooler comes with just doesn't cut it for serious over clocking, Also the cooler is big. it is a 3 slot cooler, but it does the job very very well.
Overall Review:
Cooler is good and quite. the fan controller it comes with does limit its max rpm quite alot though. If you got a mother board that can control fan speed plug it into that and use that with speed fan. works better and doesn't limit your gpu to its maximum overclock potential.
