Just wanted to say the this heatsink is great for the 8800 gtx series video cards. I was getting 90+ degrees before on stock cooloing, now i max at 55, full load. Course i added a 92mm fan. Also, i didnt have any problems with the sinks not sticking correctly. Used artic cleaner solution and had no problems at all. Great product, its a must have for 8800 owners.

Seems like it takes up too much space for me though. It looks nice and preforms great according to some reviews I read.

Am I the only one who is having an impossible time using the bracket that came with the card? I'm running an 8800 GT 512, which is said to be compatible with said cooler, but the wholes in the bracket for the screws are not even CLOSE to letting me actually use it. I have no idea what I'm going to do now. I wasted my money on a 50 dollar cooler I can't use, and have a completely massacred graphics card scattered across my desk. I've never been so frustrated in my entire life.

Apparently there is a GT version for my stupid card. I've never felt so retarded in my entire life.

same here, i've heard countless complaints about the memory heatsinks, but i also cleaned my RAM with arctic cleaner and they stuck just fine, and are still stuck tight.

yes that thing is a monster... it takes up a ton of space.. the 8800 gts i scored off skullz came with one attached already .. heres a pic of it in a descent sized case.. sadly it doesn't leave room for any pci slots unless i were to do the reverse mounting but it still takes a lot of room

DAMN!!! That thing is a MONSTER. I read on the egg, That someone said it was bending their card badly. Can that happen as I was thinking seriously of getting this and a Silverstone FM121 120mm fan over the Zalman VF1000.

I hope it'd fit in my case (LL PC-A70) w/o touching the side.
