I heard the Fatality zalman fan was suppose to be the best, is there better or is that pretty much it? Any suggestions??

I am mainly in the market for something that has the best quiet/cool ratio. i will mainly run at stock (i know i know) but am looking for future growth in ocing!!!

I can't praise the Arctic Cooling range of GFX coolers enough!......They have super performance, easy to install, very quiet and the fans are rated for ~60K hours!
+ they're cheap!
Can't go wrong IMO....

well, the best would be water cooling (efficient and quiet) but a cheap and great working alternative would be e.g:

I think I'd still opt for a Arctic Cooling Silencer, it has to be cheaper and faster to install than any of the mod yourself coolers. And I would bet it cools better also, that's why I put a VGA silencer on my 9500 Pro in place of highly modded OCZ copper socket A cooler. Yes, it's been that many years sence people were doing CPU cooler mods on GPUs.

Is the king of cooling and tuning ATI cards. If you have a question, shoot him a email. He has been at this for a day of 2 now.

i am going to get the Fatality version is there any way to keep the ati tool on 24/7 instead of it restarting all the time everytime you restart?

Just tell it to startup along with Windows ................

It's in setting, under the pulldown menu, go to startup.

ok cool thanks. I am hoping this HSF will work quite well so i can leave the card @ XT speeds at all times.
