Default Zalman vga cooling VF-1000
Finally recieved then today. Installed first one cause second card is in RMA. Personally I don't think they are worth $80.00 for that extra piece. But as for cooling they definately do the job. stock cooler idle after 1 hour was like 53 c, w/VF-1000 44c. Twice through 3D mark 06 w/stock cooler would be between 65-70c, With zalman 54c. Deffinatley keeps the card cool.

EDIT: 1 hour and 20 minutes of supreme commander and card is 46c

I'm considering this GPU upgrade but I can only find this one post of a OCN member installing the cooler AND memory heatsink upgrade. Although the price is stiff (as expected with Zalman) the results seem to be pretty consistent.

Anyone else have a review of the Zalman VF1000 LED w/ ramsink?
