I tried to look for cooler for 8800GT and couldn't find any.
Any one have this video card and know which coolers will work with it?
preferably Zalman fans

vf700, 900, 1000 or if not zalman, an accelero s1 is the best bet for the money. Check out Hardforum, they did a 8800gt cooler comparison.

link Accelero S1 is not featured but if you purchase a 120mm fan and mount with zip ties /tape/ anything it pretty much is on par or beats the best coolers you can buy.


*edit: forgot to mention that the ramsinks on the s1 fall off. One drawback to it. You would need thermal paste or conductive tape to keep them on. It is a little more work, but the noise/heat dissipation and price all align well.

** found another link comparing the s1 to others, though not on the 8800gt.

looks like they already have fans for Accelero S1 at newegg
I'm most likely getting S1 and these fans for my VGA card
Thanks for the help guys =)
