Hello,

Im currently buying some aftermarket cooling for my GTX 480, and i noticed on the VRM cooler from Thermalright there is an option to add an 80mm fan to the radiator. Thermalright only sells clips for 120mm fans. What other options do i have for attaching this fan in a way that it wont move or rattle against the radiator?

Thank you!

Wow. That wasnt on their site earlier but its shows up now. Its just an R1 with an adapter plate. Theres no way its going to cool a 480 gpu. And if its like the R1 it mounts to the voltage regulators and not the gpu processor. You'll need another cooler for that. And yes it should come with the fan clips but I cant verify that either. The R1 definitely did.
