VF900s?

A good cooler overall, but it has so small fins that it gets full of dust pretty fast.
 
this makes me want to hurt you. I gave you this answer through messenger LAST WEEK :p
 
well, you were really drunk :p
plus, on the LED one, it says the fan is 80x80 and the non-LED one is 96x96 and I'm not sure if that is a typo or what... I would think the 96x96 would be better, but I think they mean the HS is 96x96, like on the other one.
 
you sir, are correct. the HS is 96x96mm. fans are both 80. i think i would have gotten the 96mm ones if that were the case (fan size) :D

When all else fails refer to the manufacturer's site. They both have 80mm fans in them.

Non LED -- http://www.zalman.co.kr/usa/product/view.asp?idx=192&code=013
96mm(L) x 96mm(W) x 30mm(H)

With LED -- http://www.zalman.co.kr/eng/product/view.asp?idx=201&code=013
96mm(L) x 96mm(W) x 30mm(H)
 
I have a Zalman HSF on my old x800 and it is a great cooler. But dust is a very big problem for these. As others have said. Due to the small fins and how it is setup, it collects VERY frequently.

I live in an area that has tons of dust in the air and every 3 months I am removing the HSF and cleaning it.

So if you do get one, just keep an eye on temps and dirt collection on the unit.
 
I have a VF900 on my Radeon X1950XT and it works very well, about 75* Celcius at 100% load (fuzzy dice in ATITool) usually some degrees less in games and it's very low noice, almost silent.

It does build up dust as time goes by but I haven't noticed much difference, if any, in performance but I would recommend keeping it clean anyway, dust is never good in heatsinks/fans.
 
I had one of these and the install bracket is also nice and easy. I'd definitely recommend it.
