good aftermarket video card cooler

[sandmannight]

I was going to get a x1800xt but I want a good aftermarket cooler so can anybody suggest one.

First thing first, the x1800xt to my knowledge has a pretty decent stock cooler on it. I would suggest the Artic Cooling aftermarket cooler if your that interested in a cooler other than stock. Either that or a Zalman. One or the other they are both awesome coolers.

I keep hearing great things about the KuFormula VF1 Plus. There was a great review on Tom's a few days back, and they raved about it. The cooler was tested on an X1800 XL, but had to be modified a bit, since the card wasn't directly supported. Check their website to see if this card is supported now. If it is, the cooler is only $38 8O. If not, I imagine it should be supported soon, being such a popular card. Here's the review. Best of luck!
