Which VGA Coolers / HSF for 512MB 6800U?

[dripgoss]

Are there any good aftermarket VGA coolers for a 512MB 6800?

I've been looking at the NV Arctic Cooling solutions, bu man this card is looooong...

Arctic cooler is not the best choice out there.

If the mounting holes on the 512 MB are in the same place, u can install all the coolers.

Look for ZALMAN coolers. Thier new flower type cooler is getting good reviews. The older ZMHP80D is still a good choice.

Thermaltake Shooner if u need full silence(fan may be necessary though)

If you can afford 6800U 512mb, why cant you get watercooling or phase-change cooling?

Thanks paadness.

And RS, you're assuming I could afford this card? It was given to me by an industry hookup and the hsf is loud as hell. That's why I ask. Also, this is in a lanboy case so the extreme cooling is out of the question...

I would sell this 512MB 6800Ultra and get a 256MB 6800Ultra and then put the extra cash in the bank.
The two verisons give you the same performance.
