Nothing..... I think DJ wanted to keep it for his X1900XT :P Dj has a VF 700 CU LED....

it will not fit on X1900XT ..... and i think even the stock kooler on X1900XT will be better than VF 700
 
Nice!!!! And please post 3DM05 too!!!

And cummon 3 more Mhz on the Core and 2 more on the memory and you have an X850 XT PE!!! Go dude!!!
 
Good effort Techhead:hap2: :cool2:

I had purchased the excellent Zalman VF700 CU-Led recently before seeing the x1900xt (which i proposed to buy from darky's dealer). 15 minutes after purchasing and leaving the shop i see one x1900xt displayed in another shop (on another floor). seeing the cooler on the x1900xt i doubt the zalman would be needed on the x1900xt.

zalman is an excellent cooler for 6800 series / x800 ??? series / 7800GT etc.....but the cooler on this sapphire gt
o2 is full copper and covers / touches the rams as well hence i had told Techhead not to spend more money unnecessarily on it.

plus one TE member had already pm'ed me and asked me to keep this on hold for him.;)
 
on my card theres an air gap between the heatsink and the memory. so was considering removing the stock heatsink for something else. is there proper contact on your card TH , DJ ?
 
@Deejay: The vf700-Cu ain't enuf for the X1900 series. The stock cooler is way better. The only option is the new arctic series which has still not been launched.
 
HIS is also comin out with an IceQ3 cooler for the x1900xt. It generates less noise, consumes less power and lowers temps by 10 degrees compared to the stock cooler.

@chaos,
This is exactly what i have mentioned mon ami !!!:)

The newer Zalman VF9xx series with its heat pipes looks promising too. lets wait for the reviews to come in.

@ bottle,
on the gto2 the heat sink sits well on the memory.

The Accelero X2 ? Its come up on a couple of places like jab-tech.com . Costs around ~ 30$. :)
 
Guys another sapphire GTO2 is on the way here ...will reach here by mid-April. so if any of you are interested in it at a very reasonable price kindly pm me. I am not posting it in the market thread for now since i do not have the card in my possesion yet.
