DuOrb or VF1000??? Noise and Performance
Which would you get? I am unsure..The DuOrb has 2 fans on it but the VF1000 looks like a BAMF with lots of copper, which means better cooling, so which one?

The VF-1000 will fare better under higher heatloads, and closely under moderate heatloads.

Doesn't the 4870 provide high heat loads?

I can't hear the VF over my case fans, it's running full speed also.
I've heard the Duorb chokes with the 4870, read it somewhere  No idea about the VF and the 4870, works wonders on my 4850 though.

There is a member here that has duorbs on his 4850's. Can't remember who offhand.
__________________I tried the VF1000 and duorb on 8800GT's. The duorb provided slightly better temps (at full speed) but was louder. I had to put it on a fan controller.
