New Thermaltake Vga Cooler!

That thing looks huge and a total pain to put in the card and take it out. Hopefully it provides enough cooling for higher end cards.
 
the zalman heatpipe cools a 6800 ultra...(zm80d-hp) to 70C overclocked...
mounting problems arnt a problem when my friend gets to work...
 
that does look sort of inefficient. but i guess its better then stock. as the above poster stated, looks like a complete pain in the you-know-what to install...i think i'll just stick with my watercooling :D
 
its also 514 grams :rolleyes: my zalman makes my dual slot card wobble.. cant imagine what 514 grams would do if the case hit the ground moderatly hard.. as it stands everything just wobbles and is alright...

514 grams is pretty heavy for even a cpu cooler...
 
I wouldn't want something sticking out of the back of my case when going to lans, imagine how quickly it could snap the VGA card if you hit a bump.

my first reaction to the copper thing is wtf.. then i saw the image of it poking out and i quivered
 
The copper part sticking out of the back is cooled passively... wouldn't it make a lot more sense to use less-densely packed fins so that air can move through the whole assembly? This thing still dumps heat into the case, so the Arctic Cooling Silencer wins just on that premise.

Thermalbreak, Thermalbreak, Thermalbreak... :rolleyes:
 
I wonder how hard it is to plug a monitor to that thing...Looks like a very inefficient design..
