Ok, so i have been looking at multiple VGA coolers that will fit on an 8800GT.

I have found the best cooler (or atleast the one that i want) for this card is the VF1000-LED by Zalman.

This heatsink WILL fit on the 8800GT. However, I think it would much more efficient to use the ZM-RHS88 with the VF1000-LED.

If anyone has any information regarding the compatibility of the ZM-RHS88 with the 8800GT. Please post it on this thread.

Thank you.

dude that stuff is way to expensive honestly go with the
ARCTIC COOLING Accelero S1 VGA Cooler - Retail
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6835186016
and the
ARCTIC COOLING Turbo Module Sleeve Dual VGA Fan - Retail
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6835186021

You will save around $50 dollars and get a better cooler

It doesn't say that the accelero is compatible with the 8800GT or even any of the 8 series cards. So unless you can find me a VGA cooler that will cool an 8800GT i am still going with my current decision.

Take a look at the Thermaltake Duo Orb or the Thermalright HR-03 and HR-03+ if you have the space. They will cool better than your option. Here's a link to some pictures but i bet you can find them on Newegg also.

Shop owner said there would be no problem fitting them.

Thermalright HR-03 GT is your solution. :D

That thermaltake DuOrb looked pretty nice, the only thing being that you can't control the fan speed. It uses a four pin power connector.

Hiya !

I think the RHS88 will not fit on a 8800GT since Nvidia went back to the old 79xx design. :pt1cable:

But it looks like Thermalright is using the normal small RAM-HS with the HR-03 GT. So I guess RHS88 isnt really necessary.

Well, the VF1000 + the GT should arrive this week, I'll let you know if it dies in seconds ;)

Kind Regards
