    IMO TT gpu coolers do a fair job. They may not be as good as some products, but are definitely better than stock cooling! And that Chrome Orb sure does look pretty cool!:dude:

    Actually, the blorb WAS stock cooling on my Herc....and it topped out at 215MHz. Quick change to an Akasa Icicle 311, and 240 is easy.

    And the icicle 311 is cheaper than the corb as well as being better....

    Like I said, with the intention being implied to the icicle 311, the orbs may not be as good as some! If I could be bothered to take the heatsink off my Radeon 8500, then the icicle 311 is what I would put on for performance! Besides, every TT orb I have used on a GPU has been better than the heatsink that was there previously, even if it wasn't as good as an icicle would have been!

    Read the dangerous heatsinks thread, as well as the "for those who still doubt..." thread....

    Then buy an alpha
