Just had a look on "zalman coolers", and they are up for pre-order here for £30:49. No idea when they're gonna be available though.

Ouch, pricey...

On ocuk news page.

pre-order now is the Zalman VF900-CU Quiet Copper VGA Cooler supporting the latest graphics cards for only £25.95 +VAT. Stock is due next week so pre-order now to avoid dissapointment.

i'm guessing the actual cooler will come with the ram sincs, you don't have to purchase them seperate?

Shop around, I know that Gibbo is making a very good attemp to become competetive on price but I saved £7 getting my VF-700 elsewhere that's 1/3 of the cost almost! :eek:

Yeah but thats a VF700.

err where does this come in to the VF900 thread?

I think he mis read the first post (VF700 instead of VF900)

Am I right in assuming that the VF900 ramsinks come with some sort of thermal compound? Wondering how they stay on otherwise

He's just speaking hypothetically. Apparently Gibbo is trying to get good price, but from past experience (vf700) he is saying they may be cheaper elsewhere.

sja360 · 18 Mar 2006 at 12:55

biggest reason its more expensive is because the £8 delivery, not sure why you cant do recorded with the vf700 :confused:

as that would bring it down to £4-5

Journey · 18 Mar 2006 at 13:14

I was replying about it being priced highly, a demonstration that if the saving is the same the £30.49 could become little under £21.00.

my bad i thought it was the vf700 you were speaking about

Cyber-Mav · 18 Mar 2006 at 14:42

i got confused too.

Price is now £25.79 inc VAT and is due in 22nd March according to OcUK website. Putting my order in tomorrow for one.. just need to check which size case fan to get at the same time

PinkFloyd · 20 Mar 2006 at 22:30

I'll be buying one of those I think

Also a plus that it will fit on a X1900XT-X, will be interesting to see how it copes on it, since the VF-700 isn't as good as the stock vacuum, sorry, fan *

Raider · 21 Mar 2006 at 11:02

Hoping mine will ship today! Fingers crossed i'll have it tomorrow for testing on my 7900GT!
