There are also many other coolers on the market with same construction ;)

I think they increased fin density from the original at CES.
nn_step and willis why you dont go to a irc channel and chat :P
waaaay off topic....
my vf700cu performs pretty nice and i think with this desing it will perform even better
If it works well and they come out with a high fan speed version, I'll get one for my upper sli card, as it runs much hotter and doesn't have a lot of space for incoming air, and i'll put my fs-v7 on the bottom card, and have two cards doing much cooler =)
I think it's too expensive... :stick: If price doesn't go down, i WILL NOT but one for sure... Am i alone ?
I did not say it didnt work, last night I reinstalled the stock amd cooler with a zalman fan pushing around 30cfm and the results are the same, for a lot less money too. I have the 9500, it looks great, but I can get the same cooling with the amd heatsink with a fan at 30db.
The idea of that post above was to point out that the ability to cool is not especially impressive if you mod a stock cooler.
The heat from the 1900 cards needs to exit the case fast, I have 2 in crossfire, the stock solution pushes the air out of the vents at the back of the case, with this new zalman that air would be circulating round the inside of my case, so I doubt the overall system temps would benefit.
There may be situations where they could work, but for the money you could do it yourself cheaper, if you are inclined.
Exactly, can't see it doing anything special. I doubt it will be sufficient for X1900/X1800 and 7900.Quote:

Well im kind of upset now that I bought the FS-V7. I only did because this was supposed to come out late Q2 of 06. Oh well I doubt it will even be much cooler but i will probably make the switch any way.
Well i bet that the VF900-Cu will be better than the VF700-Cu. If it is not better, than Zalman would be really dumb to introduce another cooler with nothing better than the older model. They already tested it and generated some improvement and than decided to mass produce it, so don't worry, it will be better than the VF700-Cu (which i got 2 days ago, i love it). :)
Well from my view I think Zalman has done the correct improvements over the 700:
1) Heatpipes.
2) Low-profile.
3) More silent on 12V vs VF700. 25dB vs 28.5dB which is a better max noise lvl imo due to their "Quiet Computing Solutions" motto. At least I thought the 12V was slightly too loud so I bought a fanmate 2 for my VF700.
4) Lighter
On a swedish site I see the price shown as 31€ ($37).
I would bet this one will do about 3 - 4C better load temps and those other improvements are enough for me to wanting one whatever it performs better or not. ;)
I keep reading this over and over on various places. Some people even thinks it's a single slot cooler.Quote:

VF700 - Dimensions : 91(L) x 126.4(W) x 30(H)mm
VF900 - Dimensions : 96(L) X 96(W) X 30(H)mm
Well of course, lower speed, less noise. Surprised? My guess is that the numbers are measured with the included FanMate connected, which maxes out at 11 V IIRC.Quote:

Still no reviews? :(
yes, I want a review of this gpu cooler!Quote:

Find me a place that sells it and I'll give you a complete review.. But as of yet I can't find a place that sells it or a place that has reviewed it..
Here's a review. :)

Great find
First post updated
How lame, a brand new supposedly beefy cooler like this and it gets tested on a 6800GT? Give me a break. It mentions at the beginning of the article how most coolers can't cool an X1900 these days bringing me hope that it was going to be tested on that but no, the 6800GT is used instead.
92 mm fan?
Contact area looks huge to me...
I'll have to see if my 6800 fits...
lol. they type like 4 pages of stuff we already know and then come with one test diagram. Ewww it's better, well :doh: If there isn't even a 10 degrees difference from a stock cooler, then compared to an x1900 with it's beefy heatsink, I'd say it would still top at 80 degrees.
But we'll see.
I vow that when I am finally able to review desktop computer hardware, I won't be writing sloppy cr@p as this.
