Hi guys! I'm new to this forum. I recently bought a XFX GeForce 7600GS Extreme Edition and I'd like to buy a new cooler to put on it. I'm in doubt between Zalman 700Cu or Evercool VC-RHC Turbo 2. Which do you think is better for my VGA?

Turbo 2:

Does Turbo 2 fits my VGA? A guy told me that fits but my card is not at the compatible list....

I've got the half copper, half aluminium zalman cooler, fits most cards and is quite good at cooling your card, also gives you the free ramsinks too :D . you also have two options to chose from on the card, first one sets the fan to maximum rpm, but is noisy, second being a silent mode which sets the fan to lower rpm so it is quieter, thats all i know about the zalman, have no idea on the evercool

Vote = Zalman. The ramsinks will likely make a small difference too. And look wicked cool. :cool:

Zalman, it has a better design in my opinion, why don't you get a VF900-Cu, it is one of the best out there

If Artic cooler made one which they don't I would say buy it, but Zalmans a as good just louder and the vf900 is good I know I owned one.
