This might not be a bad cooler if you can swap the fan for an 80x25. Anybody confirm this yet? If so I might be selling my ZM80D for one of these :)

ATI 9800xt w/ AC silencer (ATI-3 and NO clicking!)
Cool, maybe the AC silencer next gen models just have issues with the next gen cards' fan controllers and not older model ATI cards...

Anyone successfully mounted a ZM80D on either the X700XT or a 6600GT?

I'm curious since I'll be going nForce4 soon (no SLI, pointless for me) and am gonna need a PCI-E card. I already have the ZM80D so would like to stick with that.

You may want to look into it, but a lot of people are reporting just as good if not better performance with the XP-90 as opposed to the XP-120. It would make a bit of price difference.

You should be fine. Specially if you can hold your finger there for 20-30 seconds. I was told that if I do see artifacts it means that my card has been damaged permanently... Lol, not hardly.

Same here. In fact if you use the connector pictured without using the single pin plugs, it's still backwards. Use the single pin plugs and you're good to go. I've found that this is typical of a lot of motherboards. There's apparently no universal standard for motherboard I/O headers. Some I've fou...

Zalman ZM-80D compatibility

Just wondering. Zalman's site lists it as compatible with all cards with the mounting holes. I have a Radeon 9800 Pro atm, which I'm sure it will fit, however I plan on upgrading to a vanilla 6800 later. Do the plain 6800's have the mounting holes? If not, do the X800 Pro's have them? Anybody had su...

Did the 7000 work with the low profile A64's? If it did I imagine this one will also. The more I look into this the more it seems like nothing really changed. From what I can tell the base is the same width and height. I don't know for sure how the new mounting mechanisms will work, but I'm thinking...

Pardon me for the assumption. The bezel mod will definitely cool your single drive or possibly two cooler running drives just fine. A fan might be in order for multiple warm running drives.

As a Sonata owner I can tell you that adding the front fan won't help much. If you do the mods listed by Tom Brown here on the forums to open up the Sonata's front bezel, for me it seemed to equal the effect of using a front fan. All the front fan really did was cool the HD's a little. In fact it ma...

if you look closely at how the fan retention bracket is held to the actual flower it's the same screw layout as the 7000 AlCu. I'm betting that if they make the fan not removable from the 7700 retention bracket that if you were to take the bracket off of an old 7000 it would work stickied in the sam...

It'll definitely fit. I had the same setup awhile ago. At around 7v it should sufficiently cool your 1700 if it's the T-bred B with 1.5v default. It'll probably run about the equivalent of an overclocked 2500 barton to the same speeds. That's a big YMMV but I'm thinking it'll be okay. If I remember ...

I think a dual 120mm rad/heatercore is more than enough unless you plan to overclock to hell and back. Northbridge isn't normally a problem, but I've heard lots of people complain about A64 boards getting really hot on the NB sink. Maybe the nforce4 will be better.
