Hi,
I need to know what chipset coolers are compatible with the 790i + 9800GX2 SLI
How about Enzotech SLF-1 ???

Is there somthing wrong with teh stock cooler on your board? What board do you have?
The stock cooling on all the 790i boards i've seen is perfectly fin and stays out fo the way of the video cards. The all have heatpipes that run p to the NB cooler so that you don't get any interfearence with the cards. The Enzotech your looking at will not provide as much cooling as the stock cooler does. For the most part you are stuck with the stock cooling when running SLI. There just isn't enough room for better cooling options between the cards. For now anyway.

This one fits 680i and 780i chipsets and should work on the 790i if hole spacing is the same. I use one on my 680i and like it.
