VGA Cooler

[Axle Gear]

What's a good, cheap (under $30) heatsink for a Saphire ATI Radeon 9800 SE?

Also, BGA/VGA Ramsinks. Are they worth it? Or just leave the chips baren? Or is there something better?

[Silversink]

This is the best out of the box easy to instal option available at the moment. You can use low profile BGA ramsinks with this as well.

That looks pretty kool sink. With some BGA ramsinks it'll look sweet.

It's /just/ out of my budget, tho. After shipping it's beyond $30.

Thermaltake vga coolers at outpost and it comes with 4 heatsinks

[skate2snow]

this one is 40$ but it looks good

[Axle Gear]

Way too expensive, and way too large.


I really do need a low-profile heatsink under $30.

[skate2snow]

its hard, you will only have a poor one the best choice is the arctic silencer

[Axle Gear]

Being big fast and expensive isn't always being best, y'know.

I'm looking at something like a BlORB or CORB, or one of those Vantec deals. Need to know which of them is best.

And again. Under $30.

[Pimp!]

i know u said low profile, but heres that vga silencer for ~25 dollars, possibly under 30$ after shipping, just incase u cant find anything else

VGA Scilencer is prob best bet mate

You will not die if you pay 35$!!!!!

What happen to a good old 1u cooler. Can't he use one of those. They run pretty cheap and are real good.

[Axle Gear]

It will when I don't /have/ $35.

I'll just get a Vantec, since noone else can find a heatsink under $30.

Vantec: $14
Ramsinks: $6
AA Epoxy: $5

Total: $25

get a copper 1u its low profile and under $30 all you have to do is mark off the holes on your card and drill em real quick.
