Zalman vf700 GPU cooler

[Fistandantilis]

Does this cooler blow the air towards the video card or away from the card, I have a thermaltake xaser 3 and it has 2 fan holes one on top of the other in the side window, should I have the lower one blow air in or pull air out?

towards

 

[Fistandantilis]

ok so if I have my window (right near video card) fan blowing air in, I should be feeding the zalman with cool air right?

Towards.

 

[swtethan]

yes, but where does the hot air exchange OUT?

Pretty sweet! I am looking to get this VGA cooler to but its seems so large. Do you worry that its too heavy for your card and that it might break it when moving the case?

 

[JBDan]

Its not large IMO. Its not that heavy either. Especially the Alcu version. Welcome gear to Anand

I wonder? right now I have the side window fan set as an intake, it is a bit warm in the house right now and the vid card is idling at 49. I will turn it around and post my findings

Great, idle about 46C, Load (HL2) about 69C, and extreme load, (rthdribl) 74C.
Before they were 62C, 80C, and 94C respectively.

What did you post about it?

 

[JBDan]

Just if anyone has used one. Tx for the info. Glad you like it

 

[swtethan]
