I just got a VF700-Cu for my 7600GT and it's great so far.

It dropped my idle temps from low 50s to low 40s and dropped my load temps from mid to high 60s to mid to high 40s.

There is no comparison between the vf700 and the vf900.
Everything doesn`t evolve around price!
In this case you are buying a mercedes in comparison the a VW beetle.
Whats 15 dollars in the scheme of things?

its more like comparing a BMW 325 series to a 530 series. U get better performance with the VF900, its quieter because at medium fan setting it will cool about the same if not greater then the VF700, and its lower profile then the VF700.

Do you want me to go on?? and yes u can get it for around 38 shipped. The VF900 and the Accelero X1 would be the only two coolers i would choise if i by some wierd desire went air again. I did had the pleasure of using all three of themon my friends and brothers rig.

Without a doubt, the VF900 is worth the extra 15 dollars.

I was merely correcting this statement, not suggesting either, though I would suggest the vf900. Shabby said that the vf900 was $50 when in fact it is $38. Since the vf900 is a universal cooler, and you can get it for only marginally more than it's sibling, get it and enjoy excellent cooling on the 7600gt and use it for a more powerful upgrade in the future as well.

I can get it for $40 CAD with my 7600gt, and I plan on ocing like mad if I can buy it this month.
