lost on a big planet.
Hi all hope you can help,

I currently have the following grfx card:
Gainward BLISS GeForce 6800 GS "Golden Sample" 512MB GDDR3 TV-Out/DVI (AGP) - Retail (GX-031-GW).

Now I wish to change the stock cooler on this card but I am having problems finding an after market cooler. I know that the Artic Cooling fans will not fit due to the memory layout on the Gainward.
Does anyone know if any of the Zalman's will work ok?
I have been looking at the following but unsure if they will fit all right.

Zalman VF900-CU Quiet Copper VGA Cooler (SY-008-ZA)
Zalman FC-ZV9 Dual Heatpipe VGA Cooler (HS-025-ZA)
Zalman FS-V7 Fatal1ty Copper VGA Cooler (HS-019-ZA)

Any help much appreciated.

Cheers Gashman,

You wouldn't know the clearance between the bottom of the fins on the heatsink and the board, just need to check that it would clear the memory heatsinks.
