AS5 will work with GPUs but some GPUs dont have an IHS so just be careful not to over apply your AS5 as it is capacitive and could cause damageif it got onto components unlike Freeze and ceramique.

But they have since retired. (Along with most of that rig, cause its getting rebuilt)

But I'm just going for high end cards. Good cooling and such. And forgetting SLi and Xfire till Lucid Hydra or something with that kind of power comes out.
Yea, If you don't plan on doing sli I say go for it. Xigmatek makes great products and I would love to have this in my machine but it's just to thick for my liking. I use the zalman VF1000 cooler and it runs great and takes up very little room you could give that a look.

Not a fan of Zalman, but between installing the 9500/9700 CPU cooler. And the VF1000 showing up with missing parts.

Least to say I wasn't a happy camper.

Besides, this is a waste of sorts. For fun kind of thing.

hmm, I've never had a problem with zalman. But then again I haven't had to mess with customer support just yet.
