Just received my MSI 7900GT in the mail, and I can't believe how small the cooler is!

My 6800GT was literally 5 or 6x the size by volume of heatsink. I'm hoping the small fan won't be too annoying until I can get a VF900 :(

Will find out tonight I guess!
 
just go here

there is a thread all about the 7900 in there clocks fans etc.... all in there
I will be getting a vf900 anyway for overclocking so dont worry about it you only have a few days to wait.
 
Unfortunately the stock cooler on 7900GTs, well atleast on my XFX anyway - are anything but quiet.

VF900 will be a must for a lot of people.
 
Very true ^ Tempted to stick a Maze 4 on mine instead of the VF900. Just means re-routing all my tubing as I only have the CPU watercooled at the minute, would be a PITA but well worth it.
