  |  ? Well, my cooling solution took a crap today, had one card idling at 51ºC the other at 37ºC at one point. So, on eBay this guy has the Zalman 700 Fatality edition coolers, $18.95 + shipping for refurbs. Will come to almost $60 for two. On the other hand theres this deal that will cover both cards for $34.95 + shipping. Opinions? |

 |  Re: ? Lol, is the seller refurbdoc or something? I bought two of those fatal1ty coolers also. They both arrived and looked brand new and had all the hardware. I'd recommend him and not worry about them being refurbs or anything. As far as 2 zalmans vs the watercooling thing. its a tough call. I've never seen a duel gpu watercooler for that cheap. |

What card(s) do you have and do these stick over the top of the board? Can you take me a pic please? I have about a 1/4" above the cards and only cause i put fans on the top of the case. Ive never seen just a dual gpu setup period. Normal price on the 'Egg is only $69.99. | |

| Re: ? Well bought the watercooler, $34.99 shipped 2 Day Mail. I figure if i dont like it, or cant make it work, ill eBay it and get the Zalmans. I KNOW those will work, at least for the heat problem. They also have a single unit good for CPU and GPU apps. If this works out good enough, i may just buy another dual unit and scale it down lol.
