GPU Fan for 6600GT

[Jim D]

I've got a LeadTek PX6600GT TDH PCIex video card in my rig that the fan is starting to growl on. Sometime in the near future (6 month- 1 year) I will probably upgrade the card, but in the meantime, what's a decent aftermarket GPU fan/heatsink setup that will fit this card for reasonable money?

NV Silencer revision not sure ... agp is not supported but pcie is so you should be okay

I can recommend the zalman 700 (in 5V mode it is inaudible - I dont see a temp difference between 12V and 5V anyway)pic

Is there any way to control the stock fan on an PNY 6600 AGP (non-GT) with software?

I have not installed the card yet but I am anticipating it will be loud. I heard the latest nVidia drivers allow fan control but I have not tried it yet...

Thanks,
C

Thanks,

You should be able to control it with Rivatuner.

I have the artic cooling silencer for my 6600GT (NV Silencer 6 Rev 2) and it's a great buy, especially since you can find them for <$20 these days. I idle around 40~45C and my load temps never pass 65C.

It's practically inaudible, and unlike the Zalman alternative, it blows the hot air outside of the case. If you can find one deff. look into it.
