Does the ZALMAN VF-700 Cu fit on a 7900GT??

Well guys, I think the topic question is quite clear...please, I want your opinions, specially from those of you who have already tested it.
Thanks in advance!!

Yes it will fit (no I havn't tried it but I'm pretty sure I read on the forums here it fit).

It's pretty universial, i'd be suprised if it didn't.

I'm pretty sure it will, it even fits on my AGP 6600GT

Do you really need it? I've got my BFG 7900GT OC overlocked like a b**ch and it
still only reads low 40s C under a load (playing BF2). I have an Antec PlusView II
case with a 120mm fan in the back and an 80mm in the front and on the side, so
I'm not doing anything special to try to keep it cool. I think nVidia just did an
exceptional job making a great card.

Yeah, I need it, Mine hits 75ºc under heavy load after a few hours. It's clocked much higher than yours (565/1700)....that's why there is that wide difference in temps...I am afraid

My XFX 7900GT was hitting 55C on a cool day with the stock cooler after an hour of RTHDRIBL, plus the fan was an annoying whiner IMHO. I just put a Zalman VF700 CU on my card and the temps are down by 10C and my computer is now quiet once again. :heart:

PS - the heatsink fins cleared all the ramsinks with no modding needed. I had to clip some fins on a few ramsinks when I installed one of these coolers on an X800GTO2.
