Zalman ZM-NB32J

What do you think, is this heat sink enough for Geforce 2 GTS? I'm currently using the same heat sink for my All-in-wonder radeon card and it's working fine with it.

was wondering the same question about this zalman on a quadro 4 and kyro 2 card :)

i think a quick test would be to unplug the fan but leave the stock heatsink (see thread http://forums.silentpcreview.com/viewtopic.php?t=4541). if it still runs then it will run even better (cooler) with a zalman, if not then you should think about some more airflow for the zalman.

i have a voodoo 3 2000 and geforce 2 mx both with relatively small passive heatsinks (stock, not modded) and they run so hot (even during desktop use) that it hurts to touch even just for a tiny moment. i dont have to mention that they run fine (yet i still did mention it hehehe ... oh).
