Zalman cooler for x800/6800 series cards
I've been doing some reading. Zalman will be coming out with a VGA cooling solution for these cards in "the next few months". Has anyone heard anything about the release date, what I will look like, specs? Anything?

So probably something very similar to the ZM80D then, with some compatablilty changes? Hopefully it's a different color that that blue...that doesn't match anything.

I would consider the Arctic silencers before committing to a zalman. The ACs blow hot air out of the case also. I think I saw a comparison recently.

Looks like it could cool very well but the ramisinks seem like they could use some beefing up |

I wonder if the ALCu is that much different in temp. The Cu must be pretty heavy. |
