I have a question:

Will this cooler work with an 8500GT card?

This is my card.

Thanks in advance to everyone who helped.

...and I want this because it looks cool. I know it is not needed for this card in particular, but I want it.

Also, if this cooler sux, please tell me. If it does, or you have a better one in mind, please recommend away!


EDIT: I also have enough room below my card for almost any large cooler (two open slots below the card itself).
 
I looked on the back of the card and it has the four screw holes that are the exact same dimensions as the 7600GT, etc.

Oh, and I also looked at that tab. Some of the lists are outdated, only stating the "FX" series even though they work with others (6XXX series, etc).
 
Noose: Thanks for your input. I like the two Zalman coolers (I know Zalman is the best in air cooling).

I should have specified: the cooler needs a fan. I don't want a fanless cooler, if I can help it (unless it is a massive/beefy block, then I'll take it!).

I just wanted a "big" cooler that, well, looks cool (no pun intended).


EDIT: Wow, this cooler is a beast! Check it out!

I ordered the Revoltec cooler and it works with the 8500GT quite well! I will post some pics soon for everyone to see!

Also, the heat pipes are even staying cool on it (normally heat pipes are very hot). Granted, this was overkill for my card, but it looks sweet and that's what counts.
