Default Replacement cooling for AIW 9800 Pro 128mb.


Can someone suggest a good, quiet, cooling solution for this card?
I do "some" gaming but mostly business related stuff w/ some video
recording.

Thanks

Look up Arctic Cooling and Zalman. Both are quiet. I use the Zalman
solution myself.

I've looked at both - The Arctic Cooling solution seems easier to install &
is less cash.

I was wondering about the performance/noise/price ratio as I understand
Zalman
recommends using a fan with their unit when one has an AIW card.

Anyone here tried both or know where I can get a subjective
comparison/review?

Thanks

I use the zalman zm80d dual heatpipe cooler on a 9800 pro aiw.
Get the cooling fan for this setup. Has worked well for me.
