    Also, if you plan on OC'ing your GPU you'll run into problems with the VF1000. After installing mine I kept getting freezes in games until I backed down to stock clocks--I had zero problems w/ that OC (in sig) and the HR-03+. Why spend all that money on a HS if it won't allow you to overclock? Further, no offense here, the RAM sink is not worth the money. Get some copper sinks instead and bend the fins for clearance.

    hmmmm i did not notice slower clocks with my a3 gts
    stock volts 675 playing moh a for a few hrs.
    with the zalman 699 24/7 np,but have not tried the hr-03.
    if its the money yes its quite pricey
    in sli i can slip a fan(2x90mm) under the bottom card now which i cuold not do with stock h/s.
    i think it pays off with good temps at higher volts(1.48)load no where near 75c like stock fan,(66)and seems to have much better post load temp back down.
    but heatsink reveiws are all about amb temps so....two or three c differance means alot to out come.

    BTW it looks smoking hot on the black pbc...i know looks are not everything
