My bad - The VF700 came with crap paste too. I got the tubes confused between the SwiftTech MCX6400-V package and my VGA Cooler, of which it came with the Arctic Céramique. Sorry for the confusion. :o Skinner

Zalman does include Arctic Ceramique with the VF700, because they have the margin to do so. You'll never find it on a sink with that low a price tag - sorry. I didn't want to give the impression that conductivity between heat pipe and the NB47J is good - I just don't know the implications of...

The AS5 works well, and I can say that reliably say my system is very stable. Skinner

sxr7171 - Thanks for the pics! I have a suggestion if you still have it apart. From the look of Pic7, the lower heat pipe easily clears the top of the lower pins. You simply need to turn the NB47J 90 deg clockwise to have it not touch at all - the same config as mine (less the skew). Look...

Hwan, PTR I'm running a PNY Quadro 1300. I needed dual DVI and I've seen the 1200 run, so I went that way instead of the 6600GT. It's GPU is very far back, more so than any 6600 or other card I've seen. You shouldn't have any problems with a GPU further away. I was having both VF700 Fan...

Thank you - It really took some effort. This will answer the previous question too... It is a PNY Quadro 1300. I don't have either the cashflow or time for getting the SLI version of the Quadro, this will do just fine for the time being. It does Dual DVI on a Quadro chip (6600GT would have...

Ahhh, It's a beautiful day - because I can actually hear it. I had the opportunity to install both my Zalman VF700-Cu and the NB47J Northbridge cooler. For those wondering, it has to be the TIGHTEST installation I have ever had. I have included pictures as I had to mount the NB47J different...

The new VF700 Zalman VGA coolers haven't hit the shores yet. Supposedly this week. As for airflow in the LianLi, we are running: 1 - SilenX 120mm 11db 1 - SilenX 120mm 14db 1 - SilenX 80mm 14db (for the SwiftTech) and then the abomination for the the chipset and VGA on the Quadro card...

Idea for pin removal: Wife pinching them with long fingernails or using Matco Scribes. Got mine on order today with a Zalman VF700-Cu. The combo is going to cut it soooo close on room. I'm looking the for the VGA fan to push enough air on the heatsink to be meaningful. I will let you...
