well, this is the setup im getting

antec slk3700amb
120mm L1A exhaust
debating whether to get 92mm L1A or 120mm L1A for front.
2100+ with slk-900 and 92mm L1A
some ram i dunno
radeon 9700 with zalman heatpipe cooler.

should i be worried about the video card temps based on this setup? would i get better video card temps if i used a 120mm fan in front rather than a 92mm (im looking for quietness). im just wondering because i figure the 120mm would blow more air in and maybe cool the video card more.

thanx

The Zalman HS on the 9700 PRO allows up to something like 400MHz core, so a non pro if its not overclocked should be fine with at least modest airflow since its core is quite a bit lower than the sort you can hit.

(assuming the HS on the non pro is the same as the one used on the pro version)
