    is the zalman zm-80d-hp a really good thing to buy?

    i have the C version on my geforce 4 ti4200 it worked great! if you want low noise, nothing beats it. warning you, you probably don't want to overclock with it. or else zalman makes a 'flower' type video card cooler that just came out.

    Like the topic says, I have a SN95G5 with an XFX 6600 GT that I just installed.
