It is a bit more $$, and a sob to install (I needed longer screws) but overall I love it. The VF700cu was good, but this bad boy is great.

hmm, i wonder where i could order one in Aus, any ideas?

My idle temps went from 40 to 35-36. Load temps went from 70s (closer to 80) down to the low 60s. Oh, and the first temps were on stock settings on the stock heatsink...the Zalman temps are running on a decent overclock. It's also quieter.

If you do order it, which you need to, i have a "guide" of sorts that shows you how to cut down the ramsinks (its realllllly easy) so that they fit properly. Let me know when you get it
