Seems quite a bit better than the VF-900, also cheaper, but bulkier:

When my 7900 GTX's stock cooler will get noisy, hopefully not very soon, I might get this one.

similarities with the Arctic Accelero series are VERY obvious!
This coolermaster:
An old Accelero without the plastic:

Three 'flat on the floor' heatpipes, but with seemingly less surface area on the Coolermaster. The Arctic can be had for 15 euro, seemingly making that the better deal..
It seems well worth waiting for the new Arctic coolers though, they look very suited for passive / very low airflow cooling of decent midrange cards!
