Voodoo Cooling

[grr8scott]

I am acquiring an AGP Voodoo card minus the cooling for the chip. Any ideas out there?

Thx

They make Video Card coolers (were specifically made for those Voodoo 2's, but they work on any video card). They have two fans that blow cool air down and over the card. I am actually trying to sell one of those coolers in the for sale/trade forum. I have a link to my thread here if you are interested at all.

The cooler is hard to describe, but I bought it from 3dfxcool, so you could check it out for some pics.

Id say buy a big ole Xeon heatsink, globalwin has a nice one that would fit it really nicely, as i remember the v2 nothing was mounted to high.

You can probably go away with the fans, strap it on with some tie straps, lap the 3 chips and the heatsink, use that new artic silver grease in between...and woo wee ya got some sweet @ss shiet going there.

Doh wait a sec this is a v3 huh?

Heres pic of my mad overclocked v3 for an idea, with a monsterious HS on it, doesn't require a fan to sit ontop of it, nice and quiet!

If you haven't already spent any money, you might want to consider building your own Cardcooler. Go to this site:

and skip to the section called The BIG Fan.
