9700, no fan. Me want

that's the biggest heatsink i've seen

whenever i think of somethin with a heat sink, i think it something that is crappy, like the radeon 7000 or geforce 4mx

Every videocard has a heatsink, some just have an extra fan tacked on for extra cooling.
 
See that pipe going off the back of the heatsink? its a heatpipe that wraps around the back of the card and connects to another heatsink.
 
MAN THAT IS AMAZING.

the price will be high that is for sure.

im sure in another month before xman you will be able to purchase heatsinks like that and mount them on your card your self.

You already can .... check Thermaltake's homepage ...
 
The Zalman ZM80-H is the cooler that they use. I just bought one (online) yesterday. I'll post what the results are like once I install it.

Looking forward to hearing about your results. What motherboard are you on?

Sure thing. It was apparently shipped yesterday, so I can probably let you know Monday/Tuesday. It's an Intel 850e motherboard.

I haven't found a single review of the cooler using a 9700 Pro, so we'll see!
 
I believe what you guys dont know about that heatsink is that its not touching memory chip. That heat sink only cool the Cpu core. I will rather cool my memory than cpu core cause you dont need that big heatsink to cool the cpu core.
 
Yes it´s for the core only..
Does it have to be that big? No matter, it is that big, if you want it smaller, bring out a saw. ; )
Anyways.. no need for a fanless GFX card if you have a 5000RPM CPU fan.. like me. =(
But when i get a better CPU fan (or H2O), i will sure get one.. Noiseless computer owns!
