I'm really impressed with the cooling on my evga 7800GTX KO. The XFX brand is about $70 cheaper but I'm goign to SLI witht he eVGA because I think the cooler is worth it.

When I originally saw the leaked pic of the cooler I hoped it would be some 780GTX++ part. Even though it ended up being the Quadro I am glad someone decided to slap it on the 7800.

Leadtek always did put the best coolers on thier cards.

But can you use two Leadtek's in SLI w/the dual slot cooler?

most likely since there's a PCIe x1 between the two x16 slots, so the top card will block this and not the other x16 slot.
