I threw two of these on an evga 680i board running dual 8800s, one for the NB and one for the SB. Unfortunately, I was disappointed with the results after reading such rave reviews about them. Using MX-1 paste temp on the SB MCP were 16c higher than the stocker cooler. The NB chipset seemed okay as the cooler was only warm. It may be that this is simply too close to the GPU to effectively cool the SB.

Anyway, if you're thinking of trying these out that's my take on them. Back to the stock cooler for me.
