Slim Passive Cooler

[dolphumous]

Has anyone ever seen a slim passive cooler?

Loudest thing in my shuttle is the gpu cooler [vantec iceberq4].


Any ideas?

9800 Pros generate too much heat for a passive heatsink.

Agreed. Not sure you're going to do it passively within the constraints of the shuttle. With a regular box, I'd say get one of those Zalman heatpipe coolers or something like that, but not sure if that'd fit in the shuttle.

 

[retardedchicken]

you can always mod the shuttle so your can fit a Zalman heatpipe cooler in

Would it be blasphemous to suggest you use stock cooling?

or consider this zalman type cooler?

Or get a videocard that runs cooler than a 9800 if noise is that big an issue.

Or watercool it.

While a good choice, it is not a single-slot thermal solution.
