In terms of processing and overclocking; this card was too good to pass up. I had originally plan to go with the same card as my friend Marc which would be the AMD Phenom X4 2.6Ghz 9950 Black Edition. However; due to reviews of not so great overclocking and AMD Being bought out, I don't really want to be supporting this product exclusively. I'll list the picture below but, honestly who the hell cares about looking at a processor? They all look the same in the end.
In terms of cooling; I had opted to go with the Zerotherm; because to according to my trusty reviewers at www.bit-tech.net they were saying that their LG775 heatsink is the best on the market at max fan speed ;however the thermalright can do th
e same performance about without a fan; making it completely silent. Considering all thermalrights products are constantly sold out on newegg; I gave up on them and realized i'll go with the zerotherm. It won't be much longer until I end up going with watercooling after I sli later and start massively overclocking all of my rig.Pictured are :
Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 Kentsfield 2.4Ghz LGA775
ZEROtherm Nirvana NV-120 Heatsink
