ZALMAN VF900 – CU 2 Ball VGA Cooler
ZALMAN VF900 – CU 2 Ball VGA Cooler

Pros: Great cooler. I run them on both of my 8800GT's. Quiet compared to the stock HSF. Sticky tape on ramsinks is useless. Get Arctic Silver adhesive for them.

Cons: Big, makes your PCIE card take up 2 slots.

Pros: Super fast. I'm running 2 in SLI at 675/1000. Crysis64 DX10@Super High with 8x AA is as smooth as butter.

Cons: Stock HSF is LOUD. I took it off both and put a Zallman CU900 on both with Arctic Silver5 and Artic Silver Epoxy on the ramsinks.

Good board

Pros: More features than you can shake a stick at. Great overclocking options. Very stable thus far.

Cons: Kinda picky about RAM, if you run SLI with Zallman VGA CU900 coolers, both PCI slots below the PCIE slots are unusable.

Overall Review: Don't think about it, BUY IT! Coolermaster Cosmos/ [email protected],zallman 9700/P5N32-E SLI/8GB Corsair/2x Asus 8800GT 512mb SLI- Zallman CU900's/WD Raptor 150gbx2/Vista Ultimare X64
