ahhhh perfect just perfect hope these arent the nip tuck optimized kind ...

HcoolP did you get the card above, if so you lucky dog, looks like a nice card

yeah i did and yeah considering the nearing zero amounts sold or and avaiable past week i am damn lucky but i did do my best to get my hands on one of these cards and chop off the "super" stock fan and mounted the vf-1000 which is awosome. only thing left is to try and sell my "old" 7600gt extreme and try and c how high can this card go oced.

p.s hmm driver wise i sure think this is the proper to the 169.04 "optimized" kaka they released last week and you do get a nice boost with little to none visual degradation at least from what ive seen but i didnt take it to the next level of comparing screenshots nor renaming the crysis.exe even if my guess says that it will still show a drop but with benefit of the doubt of "special" crytek optimizations rather then grose nip tucks ;-)

sweet bro enjoy the card and the Zalman cooler looks sweet also

Cool looking card HcoolP enjoy it and let us know how it performs O/Cing and the kind of temps you get. Cooling is becoming my new hobby

thanks i will try yours aint as half as bad Chaos .

and Mac i will try to OC as soon as i get some free time and will be happy to report back..
and cooling is a never ending hobby especially with high potential cards as this...

Cool

Everyone is rushing out to buy this zalman cooling solution because nvidia used a pathetic stock cooler. I'd prefer something dual slot though.

maybe pathetic indeed but i need to get some more ram heatsyncs before i try to oc since "pathetic" stock cooler had some more solid paste on non ram parts and i fear they didnt just put that for kicks so more heatsyncs to buy aorund 4 will tend to it as soon as possible to avoid any flukes besides that the zalman vf-1000 does a grate job just misses some extra heatsyncs for the g92 cards..

p.s should look like this:

I hadn't noticed that HcoolP and thats kind of lame isn't it no heatsinks or even a heat spreader for the regulators ? The other issue I see right off the bat with this cooler is even though you have added extra ram sinks the main cooler sink doesn't cover them or other areas of the board that create heat. Let us know how it works it should have coverage like this
