Hi, I just ordered one of these, and will let you guys know how mine goes after I get it in.. Supposedly, it works on my AIW 9800 Pro, so we'll see if it helps with the artifacts I've been getting from time to time in my games.. (MxO mostly) I ordered it from sidewinder.com, as they have good reviews and it was only 15 bucks there.
Here's the cooler installed..
Notice the heatsinks that I've added to my motherboard as well as the memory on the video card. I added larger heatsinks on the top, and smaller heatsinks on the bottom side, so that they could fit underneath of the arctic cooler. Case temps have lowered substantially (about 10 degrees) and I play games with the card overclocked now, with no artifacts. (Before, I had artifacts sometimes without overclocking) All in all, I would recommend this to anyone.
