It sure can. 7600GT is only consuming 35watt. The aerocool VM 101 has been successfully tested even with 6800GT whixh consumes 55watt.
I think with a 7600GT it would be pretty cool!!
Since I own an aerocool VM101 and 7600GT AGP from Leadtek is out , I want to give it a shot.
My only concern is this :
Is VM101 compatible with 7600GT ? I mean can we put it or are there different holes in the card?

This has been asked a number of times, and I don't remember exact answer here so you'll have to look it up yourself. Part of the problem is that AGP 7600GT cards use PCI-E -> AGP bridge, so you might have fitting problems. If you can get past the bridge problem you'll be able to cool it.fouster wrote: Is VM101 compatible with 7600GT ? I mean can we put it or are there different holes in the card?
Second "potential" problem is VM101 uses 3mm screws, I say potential because I don't know what diameter mounting holes 7600GT uses, but if it's less than 3mm you'll have to tinker with it first.
